for my class, we went to the RSAF museum, which basically showcased a lot of planes as well as chart the history of the air force. hmm some people might find it boring (so plain/plane) but i think it was actually quite cool! how many times can you get close to a fighter plane that actually worked before? for me, once, which was on wednesday.
anyway we looked at the exhibits, took some pictures, watched a video, and then we had to go back. sadly, there was chem prac after that, so we spent another 1 hour in school with koh siak peng before going to j8 for lunch.
off the nose of a plane lol.
look there!
the rest of the week was spent at home mugging for chinese. how do you mug for chinese? the answer is you can't, so i spent many hours hunched over chinese ws trying to memorise some cheem phrases (which i didnt really use in the end) :(
on friday was the test. actually the test wasn't that bad, however, the hall was COLD! i was sitting in the center of the hall, under attack on both sides by the air con. despite this obstacle i battled on and managed to finish both my papers. a good achievement! just that i'm pretty sure my paper 1 will not score very well, since i chose the two most gl options (qn 2 and 4). oh wells. i really need to work on chinese...
after school was the soccer match. before that, hiok francis rongjun and i went to practice a bit of funk, but we couldn't do the actual dance, so they taught me the moves i don't know yet. and now i do! puay lin is forward, lavin is side, pop is throwing face, chem bro is wavy arms! something like that. :)
soccer. we played very well, but in the end lost 5-4 to NCC. haha really an EPIC match. from 0-1 down, to 3-1 up, to 4-2 up, to 5-4 down. great job rui liang! he scored a hat trick, really good stuff. although we didnt win i guess it was quite a fair/fun match, and we didnt really expect to win anyway. but like ben goh say, we were the better team for once! and now i know i can pump a ball 3/4 of the astroturf nicely :) we'll work hard for the next match!
after the chinese mid year exam, its good that we have 3 days to rest... recover from the shock. tmr is the replacement holiday for vesak day, so i might stay up tonight to watch arsenal vs chelsea.
thanks buddhism!
