End of the week, start of the holidays. So as it says on the calendars.
NOT true for S4s.
Such a drama week. O level Physics SPA was really easy this round, I was quite happy at the end of it.
Friday was hectic. Crazy even. I joined like another 130 S4s down to the audi for the Motivational Talk by The Principal. Mr Lee came down and in his super enthu-ness had many of us state our absurdly high L1R5s. He showed videos, and talk about strategies and plans to lay out, mostly mental ones like first establishing that we're not entirely hopeless, and to set goals to halve our L1R5s by next Prelim, not scoring the 6 just yet. Small steps with little victories. It was quite helpful, I suppose. Why did I have to miss Math and Chinese for it though :( Why, why couldn't it have been double English I missed?
After recess there was a quick physics lesson then it's admin time - report books. Not fantastic, at least I was prepared beforehand. And I realised my class eats fast, there was no pizza left when I got to the canteen. Suits me - I took one sip of Coke and offensive comments shoot.
I rushed for training because I had a make-up Math lesson :X It was NCO-Post interview. No opinions here for now - it's entirely confidential.
I watched our very 1st Freestyle drill team practice they performance later. The steps were really good, the only problem was the coordination and the time taken. Wished them best of luck for the competition the next day. They tried their best, and even though we didn't win anything, I'm proud of their greatest efforts. And for NCOs Samuel our instructor, and Wei Xuan and Gar Wye for helping the team so much ^^
Parent-Teacher meeting after that. Was...alright, I suppose. I whole heartedly support Stef's mom, whom Stef said she'd hit the photographer if she could (Shawn going about with the stupid camera) for taking her picture talking to a parent without permission. I'm no No.3 as well as he took me with my parents :X wtf.
After classes on Sat I had a Dissidia face-off with Edison with Matthew's PSP, and face-off with Matthew with Edison's. Yes, when I play I'm a crazy gamer :D Dissidia is an awesome FF game, you can fight each other on and on without getting bored too quickly ^^
Last night, my bro thought there was a baby fox wandering outside our house, pacing back and forth. I went to investigate and found this little dog:
It was so unkept and hungry. We quickly took her in and groomed her (hair EVERYWHERE) We looked it up, she's a toy-breed dog, a German Spitz. We fed her and set a box for her to sleep in for the night out of the rain, but she wanted to roam about for awhile.
Look at her walk - she's super delicate :D The little lady even knew how to lift her head as I groomed her front. Nevertheless we let her go to sleep, intending to bring her to SPCA the next day.
Velvet got a hell of a time at Obedience classes. We learned out to drain his energy by making him run left right centre swing a piece of leather. He was really stubborn there and the trainers had to break into him the hard way. Mrgh.
When we got home I fed and set the German Spitz walking and a nearby neighbour lady came by and demanded to know why I had imprisioned her. I asked if she was the owner, and she said yes, that her dog usually goes walking about like this for the past 20 years (Dad and I knew she was bull-shitting, dogs have a life span of 15 years max. And this one was about 2 years old.) and she condemned us for being new and not knowing. We apologised for dabbling and said we won't bother her dog anymore. After we left the dog out she had her back turned and the dog went off the the opposite direction. By the time she turned back she questioned where her dog was. Sigh. I hate neighbours like that. But I'm not too bothered - I saw the dog home. As long as it's okay.
Advanced Drill Course tomorrow. I'm going alone in Cat High - I learnt that De Sheng backed out, as his teachers were all unable to make plans with him to catch up, so I'm going to be the only Supernumary in CHS S4 :X I'm so glad I have great teachers. Be back on Thurs!
