utter complacency
(or not so)
math and chem papers were both 2 hours long. i spent 1 hour doing my math paper, around 20-30 mins just staring into space and certainly the rest - revising through the o-so-important chemistry mechanisms (electrophilic add, sub, nucleophilic add, sub), which in the end i found not so important.
i walked out of lt4 thinking, okay, i just failed math, will pass chem tho -> this thought lingered in my head until i saw my chem paper, i almost fainted.
the 1st question was on my favourite topic of ionic equilibria, if this were a race, i reached the grandest distance of the 3rd mcq question and decided to start on my structured questions and the 1st structured question was at to nobody's amazement - ionic equilibria. anyway, the verdict is that i hope i'll at least pass my test man... with organic being another killer and that's the only 2 'topics' tested.
oh well, had quite a nice sleep, woke up with a slight runny nose, must be my sinus acting up.
anyway, the main point of this post...
jc people, i can only categorise them in 2 major categories acaedemically - the secret muggers and the open muggers. and i really can't stand the former... if you want to be a darn mugger, don't be so afraid to let the world know. stop disturbing other people by talking so loudly by proving to be some slacker when in fact, you're some secret mugger, shut up and don't disturb the peace when people want to do some last minute mugging. seriously, if you don't want the world to know you're a chao secret mugger, just shut up, don't say you didn't study and all that crap, no one gives a damn. and don't ace the test or pass... don't be so darn happy if you achieved the aforementioned stellar grades,
cos you did study for it afterall....
