I PASSED ALL MY SUBJECTS!!!!

Got the rest of my papers back today. Wish I could keep the chem paper though. We could keep all our other papers but we just had to return our chem papers back. Shall go beg my teacher to let me bring it home to show you all. Okay, I promised to post my results so here it is:-

English: Level 4.5 (out of level 8 so it's considered a PASS)
Economics: 55%!!!! In the end I get 66% (B) for my semester mark cos they count your CAs as well
Chemistry: 96%!!!! The highest in our year group (meaning I got 1st in Chem)
Physics: 73% (not bad for a first timer like me~)
Introductory Calculus: 92.5% (something like E math so it's not really so hard)
Geometry & Trigonometry: 84% (I thought I was going to fail at first but Mr Ebert was really nice to give me lots of 'follow-through' marks~)

I guess it's rather good in my opinion but I need to work harder for my English and Economics. Am spending too much time on my Math and Science. Will be hard cos I don't like those subjects :( Wish me luck~

Went back to school today. Got my Chem, Physics, Intro Calc and G & T papers back. Will report on my marks once I get my English and Economics papers back too (I'll probably fail Economics because I studied the wrong chapters and a lot of people failed) I do hope I passed English though. I think I just can't do humanities. Oh well, I really need to get help. Need to find my teacher and ask whether she can help me or not.

My parents are coming next week! I can't wait! Seems so far away but I'm gonna start counting down till then. Hope I can get out of the boarding house and stay with them. Then at the end of the week, I get to go home to Singapore cos it's GUITAR NIGHT!!!! I hope it's a success because some of them practised really hard and I'm sure that their work will pay off. Till then, Gambate!

Yay! Exams are over! I feel so happy now that exams are over. Hope I pass them all though. Found out my Chemistry marks as well. Will only let those who ask me know my results cos I won't say it out loud. If you want to know then just ask me. I'll rejoice like crazy if I DO pass economics because I accidentally studied the wrong chapters and I just used my common sense and try-to-remember memory. Hope it was useful.

Physics was an okay paper though many people said it was hard. At least I knew how to answer the questions. Intro Calculus was WAY easy. But I was checking my paper and found so many careless mistake. Thank God I had the time to change them or else I probably wouldn't have passed the paper. But I overlooked one of the questions so I guess I can't score full marks then...

Geometry & Trigonometry was HARD. I think the teacher is trying to fail me or something. I mean, just because we're smart, doesn't mean that you make the exam so hard that we are BOUND to fail. Jeez... Found a few questions that I didn't know how to do. Just hope I can scrape an A then I'll be happy. English was so long ago. I can't even remember how the paper went. Just hope I pass though. Oh well, exams are over so I shouldn't stress anymore. It's not like I have the power to turn back time or anything. It'll be cool though. Then I would know what to study and what not to... then I can get full marks for all my exams! SO COOL!

I can't wait to go home to Singapore. Aya's bringing me out to eat GOOD food cos it's only a half day in school. Can't wait cos I'm really deprived of good food here. I want to go home! I miss you all! (Aya, Sak, Mon, Phoebe, Cyn, QiYi, Gladys, Tiffy, Sarah, Germaine... lots more) Want holidays to come sooner! BTW, wish all you guitarists good luck for guitar night! I'll be there to support you guys!

Love, Melsie

Yo~ Finally got a chance to update. I can't wait for mid-term to approach. Then I will get a chance to get out of here. So strange, at the beginning of the year, I was happy to be in the boarding house. Now, I wish I never became a boarder. Can't wait to go out and HAVE GOOD FOOD. I WANT ASIAN FOOD!!! Miss my mum's cooking (even though it's not that good, but at least I LIKE IT) My exams are starting on Fri and I can't wait till the exams are over. Shall start counting down NOW:

From today (28th May 2006),
- 4 days to the English Exam,
- 9 days to the Chemistry Exam,
- 10 days to the General Achievement Test (general knowledge paper),
- 15 days to the Economics and Physics Exam,
- 16 days to the Introductory Calculus Exam,
- 17 days to the Geomoetry and Trigonometry Exam,
- 18 days to FREEDOM!!!!

Seems so far away. Yet it's so near. Shall focus on my physics and Economics in the meantime (my weaker subjects). I'm not sure how to study for English. I mean, how is it possible to study about how MUSIC VIDEOS work? I might as well say that I'm going to join the film industry right away. So, I'm just going to leave it alone and focus on subjects that are WORTH studying for.

Guess I may not be updating for sometime until the exams are over. I need to resist temptation! I must remember to pray the rosary for all of you all who are going to have your Chinese O' levels tomorrow. Good luck to all and remember to tag when you have the time~

Love, Melsie

HAPPY BIRTHDAY PHOEBE!!!!

Tell me what do you want from here for your birthday! I still don't know what to get you ne~ Hope you had fun today. Sweet 16~

I hope that exams would come and go soon. I really want to come back to Singapore now. TOTALLY hate the internet here. Wonder why they must restrict us so much. There's no point in doing this anyway because the more they restrict us, the more we are likely to rebel and this would NOT be a good thing for them.

I just had an economics test today followed by an Intro Calculus test. Intro Calculus wasn't that hard but others said it was hard and i found the economics question a bit hard (didn't really prepare for it much) while others said it was easy. Maybe I'm just weird. Should get a shrink or something :)

I hate the school network! They are so irritating. Let me explain the reasons:

1) They blocked msn and hotmail

2) We found other sites that allow us to use msn BUT they blocked that too so I can't be online ANYMORE

3) THEY BLOCKED YOUTUBE!!!!

4) They are going to block the access for those who tried to use proxies to access the blocked sites on Wed, Thurs and Fri (24th, 25th and 26th)

5) I basically can't access lots of sites liao

I feel that it's totally unfair because us boarders have to live with THESE blocked sites whereas all the day girls get EVERYTHING else at home. It's not fair. They should have a network just for boarders. What if we need to check our email in hotmail? If you don't open your account in 30 days, they will somehow delete your account. So it's not fair. I just hope that they won't block fanfiction.net because I WILL DIE without that site. It's basically the ONLY thing that I am surviving on right now. Without that, I WILL GO CRAZY and KILL MYSELF!!!! Well, not that dramatic lah. I treasure my life above all other things. Just wish that they wouldn't set so many restrictions for us. What happened to the 'I wish to express my views' thing? Shouldn't we be allowed to do stuff that we want as long as we don't misuse it? What's wrong with just checking your mail? Stupid. Am getting really frustrated now and I wish I could just go home or have a house here with PROPER internet connections. This is driving me insane. Wish there was a way out.

YAY!!! I finally completed the book review for my Reading and Viewing Journal for English. Still need to do the movie viewing part of it. Worst still, it's due THIS FRIDAY. Yes, the 19th May 2006! I am so screwed. Shall beg my teacher to let me do any movie I want cos it's too close to the due date and it takes really long to be able to annotate the movie if you just watched it for the first time. Oh well, I hate English. Got so much stuff still undone. I've got an ENGLISH assignment due next Tue as well and I haven't even begun. I'm REALLY screwed.

Anyway, it was so philosophical in Chemistry today with Mr Przy cos Ms L wasn't in school due to year 9 camp I think. He said that we have to define a chemical bond without using the words - want, need, have to... and other human qualities because atoms are non-living things. He said that by giving them human qualities, we were creating metaphors and worst still, we were BELIEVEING THEM! So we then learnt that a chemical bond is when a pair of electrons are attracted to two nuclei at the same time. He used the example of glue and paper. Eg Paper does not stick to the other paper but when you apply glue it sticks. Why? Because one sheet of paper is attracted to the glue and so is the glue to that paper. The same goes for the other piece of paper. So, therefore electrons MUST be attracted to 2 nuclei (electrostatic attraction) at the SAME TIME. Damn... since when did Chemistry become so philisophical?

Haven't really got the time to update much. My exams are starting in June when everyone in Singapore is having their holidays and I feel so miserable to be the only one studying! Oh well... I've got a chem test and I've gone to dig out my TYS so I can do some practise questions for the test. It's on bonding so it should be quite easy I suppose. Have started watching naruto from youtube.com cos I'm getting bored from a lack of anime. Won't watch bleach yet cos Aya wants to lend it to me when I come back in July. Can't wait for that day to come sooner.

I find that my heart still doesn't belong here. Even though the lessons are better than Singapore school lessons, the people I have to mix around with are not exactly what i wished for. Some are REALLY nice/kind/caring/hospitable while others are just CRAP. Like they think the ENTIRE UNIVERSE revolves around them and they are to get everything they want. GO AND DIE to whoever is like that. If they continue to be as such, their head will explode from being too egoistic. Serves them right anyway. Oh well... I miss you all (Aya, Sak, Mon, Gladys, Phoebe, Sarah, Germaine, Cyn, Qiyi, plus the juniors - Ger-tan-maine, Xin yi, pei ying...)cos you all are the only ones I can connect with well and I can really BE myself. Wish the holidays would come sooner. Can't wait to go home :(

Okay... this is SO OVERDUE!!!! It was supposed to be 1 week ago...

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY SARAH & GERMAINE!!!!

Was too lazy to blog. Finally managed to get my computer to access the internet in school so now I can use the internet in the comfort in my own room~

So... today I want to wish:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY QIAN KUN!!!!

Haven't seen you in a while. Hopefully can see you during guitar night. Can't wait.

Am now just randomly surfing the net cos I finally managed to complete my homework~ Can't wait till the 20th May cos I'm going for the Wesley Boarder's Ball~! *squeal* Hope it'll be fun cos I've never gone for one and it's on a river cruise.

Ok... I found this quiz and decided to do it. Why am I so much like Lupin????

Take the What High School Stereotype Are You? quiz.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY QIYI!!!!

Hope you liked the present I gave you. Can't wait for guitar night. Shall start counting down the days to it. Hope it is a success. The guitarists better go practise or else I will PERSONALLY go and 'behead' them. Ok, I am flying off to perth tonight because I have some stupid 'how to study' thing tomorrow but I don't feel like going. Maybe just go there and stone (the course is free ANYWAY). Will probably be cold there because winter is here.

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY SAKKY!!!!

Have got you lots of pink stuff from Geraldton ne~ Hope it's nice. Have been doing lots of gift shopping there. They have lots of good stuff!!!! But sometimes the quality not very good lar. Geraldton is known for their crayfish / lobster so I think we eat until siao already. Had to much fish and chips already. Might probably not eat it for a month or so. So sian of it already. Was really fun there but there was no internet so I felt really bored there. Was so glad to come home yesterday night. Hope I can finish my holiday homework by the end of this week though. Shall try my best.

SCHOOL HOLS ARE FINALLY HERE AND SO ARE MY PARENTS!!!!

I feel so happy that it is finally the holidays. I am trying to finish my homework this week and hopefully get to enjoy the rest of my holiday. Will probably go shopping for more warm clothes (I get REALLY cold easily and I'm not sure why) Hopefully can find good stuff at good prices at the shopping centres.

I miss you all at home! I really feel like coming back, but must wait for another term before I can. Heard as a rumour that our Year 11 dance has been moved to 9th Sept instead of 1st July. It felt great when I heard it because I won't be missing it due to guitar night! All the more can't wait.

------------------------------------------------------------ Melsie decided to blog on Saturday, April 15, 2006 at 12:11 p.m.

I don't know why we have to go to school this week. I mean, it's only going to be for 4 days and tmr is dramafest matinee, so we miss periods 4 and 5. Wed I have cross country so will miss periods 1, 2 and maybe a bit of period 3. Thursday we have easter service then period 3 and 4 then finally principal's speech. That's like so boring this entire week. Why can't they just let us off instead of coming to school for week 11? Damn them.... I want to come home!!!!

Just had my physics test in the last period. Wasn't as hard as I assumed so I hope I do well in it. Oh, and the best news that I found out on Fri - I GOT FULL MARKS FOR THE CHEM TEST!!!! It was upon 41 and I was practically squealing in class. Anyone would find it really obvious that I got full marks lor. Shall try and work for other subjects too but it's not as easy as chem. Hurray for chem! It's like the best thing on Earth!

------------------------------------------------------------ Melsie decided to blog on Monday, April 10, 2006 at 03:52 p.m.

To all who gave me advice on Gay rights, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! Hope the speech will be good. Continue to give more adive about what you all think so it can be something like 'what people think about gays'. Anyway, the speech is due on the 8th May - after the school hols so I can still take advice until then. Will be very grateful.

I want to go home this holiday!!!!! I miss my own room and I want to see you all!!!! Most of the boarders are going home and I really want to even if it is for 1 week or so... Shall try and BEG my parents but I doubt it'll work because they will NEVER change their minds. Can't wait till end of june. Want to see guitar night and everybody!!!! Shall try to learn how to control my accents because sometimes I speak Aussie accent with random singlish stuff and it sounds SO weird cos in English the other day, I was like, 'Can you chope that comp for me?' and the girl was like, 'huh?' and I was like, 'Oh. I mean reserve'. Felt so random lar. Really need to control them or else I'll get random outbursts of singlish.

School is boring. Math and sciences are fun but I'm starting to dislike economics because when the teacher is talking, nothing seems to get into my head. Maybe I'm just to tired and I need to relax and redo my stuff. Just had a chem and english test today. Chem was okay but I had no idea what I was trying to write for English. I just crapped on about red indians and stuff. Was glad I still could write fast cos we had to write approximately 2 and a half in 1 hour. Felt really good after that because it was FINALLY over and I could have some rest. Shall go and sleep now. Very tired. Night all!

We have to write a speech for English. Thank God we don't have to deliver it. Guess what I'm doing? GAY RIGHTS!!!! Thought I might be able to get lots of advice from you all. May need a bit of help in the setting and person delivering(maybe make-believe character). Need to get lots of advice hor. So just remember to tag okay?

I HATE EPWs(extended pieces of work). I am currently failing them all. They are like different from normal tests because you have to answer it in context which is my WORST yet. Need to learn how to do that so it can be improved then.

New layout!!!! I found this image on one of the blogskins but I just uploaded it myself and didn't care about the rest.

School is getting boring and it's getting colder here liao. Temperatures this week will range from 26-28 degrees Celcius and at night, it will probably drop to about 13 dregrees. How cold is that? I'm practically hugging my blanket really closely now. Can't afford to let go or else I'll get chilled and fall sick again. BTW, I AM ALL BETTER NOW!!! Some people in the boarding house still sick and some people say that hay fever is coming. Doesn't seem to bother me though. *Feels happy that I can finally breathe through my NOSE*
