not that good... but it is still results!

Whoo! I have got back my term 1 results today, and as compared to last year’s end of year result, I sure see a vast improvement! Yea yea I know I am praising myself, but why not? After all I have worked hard for it and I am proud of myself! Although my results is that good, but it is good to me. Yup.

Have a look at my humble results:

Math c - 63% c

Chinese a – 56% d

Geography -67% b

General paper- 56%


I know although there is not a single A but I am satisfied, at least I have passed all my test, as compared to my last years promo E for Chinese a,D for geography, F for my math and an C6 for my G.P. hence there is a great improvement and I am proud of it! But this will not be my aim! My aim would be to get at least a B3 in G.P and 2 As and a B in the A level! I will work towards it!

I know that term 2 will be a big busy period with so many events coming up, but I believe I can do it! Yay! Okay, off to settle my C.C.A stuff.

Changes

I think I am changing my skin because I feel like having a change, haha I know I am talking crap, but it is nice to have a change once in a while.

It has being long since I last updated the blog. There are so many things to say. Haha. This month has not being particularly busy, I think but not very free as well, but there are many many small changes or improvement in my life.

My results is improving, which is good. Yea. My math have improved! Yes!! From my whole collection of F to a collection of ABC, although it is mainly B, it is better than F. my Chinese and geography are still the same, the results ranges from B to D. I am most proud of my G.P! yay. I have manage to clichéd a B for my last compre test. Yes yes. And I am passing my G.P now. I hope this will continue, and of course I will study harder to improve my grades!

My aim for mid yr, the yucky exam after my precious June Holiday would be as follows:

Math -- B
Chinese A – B
Geography – B
G.P -- B4

Haha I know everything is a B but I must set realistic goals for myself. I figured that I would have to spend my time now on mastering what is being taught now in class so that I would not have to spend a lot of time revising them in the June Holidays. The June Holiday would be spent mainly on my last years work, especially math, there is a great deal of thing I would have to learn and revise.

food for a thought

Sometimes it is not the food that uses the most expensive ingredients that taste that best, nor food cooked by the best chef. Sometimes, it is just the memories that come with the food that makes it taste so good. Even a simple plain bun or a plain 50 cents ice cream cone from Mac would taste great because of the person you are with and enjoying the food with.

Some food really brings back fond memories I have in the past. My friends and I will always hang out after school; we are not the extremely studious kind, haha. We would just eat and do nothing in particular, just sitting at the coffee shop after our meals, talking random and most of the time senseless stuff. As we would go out and eat every day after school, we are constantly on hunt for new and interesting food, but sometimes, we would eat the same kind of food for days. One example would be, once my friend had this fetish with Ban Mian, he would eat Ban Mian everyday without fail! And we would follow suit, haha and finally after 2 weeks, I gave up, I got so sick of Ban Mian, that I feel sick even seeing him eat that stuff. Until now I am still reluctant to eat it, but at least I know who caused me to have this phobia of Ban Mian! Haha and it helps me to remember him.

Another would be that 50 cents ice cream me and my friend always buy, there was one period of time when the ice cream was 25 cents, and we would take turns to treat each other and compare who treats more. Haha, we would always fight over it, not those big fight over money, just small random teasing and threatening, haha and we would already fight over who to pay so that we can win! And sometimes, the weather is so hot that the ice cream melts very fast, it would drip on our hands and we would laugh at each other ‘plight’. Those were that days. Now the ice cream holds a special place in my heart that I feel weird not eating it with him, so I do not eat it, and only eats its with him. Haha and the treats come quite frequent although it is not 25 cents per cone anymore.

So I think that sometimes or maybe most of the time, I enjoy some food or have a sudden craving for some food, it is not really or most of the time because of the food itself, more than less, it is because of the memories it brings back. When I am feeling down or feel that things are not going my way, when I feel that I need a break, something to perk me up, I would have the craving for those food, food that brings back the memories, food that gives me the aspirations or brings me back to the happier days. These foods help me carry on. Although it is not good to wallop in the past, but sometimes, we need help from that past to help us move on and bring us further on our journey.
