Jin passed!
=)
Passed the English Content test . Yay! 1 down!
93% passed by the way ...
Luckily i wasnt in the 13 that failed tho i didnt have the time to study ...
Bottomline is , paying attention in class is so important. More important than revision.
Dang!

Jin did fine
Was pretty nervous when our tutor return us our assignment and test paper. (Math)
I did fine for both. Happy ~
My tutor said if its not well done, she will write some comments on how to improve. If its good, she will also write comments to praise ...
If she didnt write anything, that means we're safe too. She didnt write down the marks for the math assignment, but i earned myself a "not-bad!" .. I tot that was q.nice.... Buay pai, cos i got a "buay pai" remark. If i would have go 1 more step in testing my hypothesis properly, i would have gotten well-done! Ugh ... miss by a bit...
As for the test paper, none of us failed, a number of us did q. well in fact. (See how competitive we are?)... I did okay. I would have scored full marks and be top of the class if my way of expressing was better than. (no time to check la! thats y! somemore -2 leh! wasted point there ... ) Anyway , i've done my best and i did okay so i'm satisfied.

Math Pedagogical Presentation
My Wednesday Math tutorials have just started and yup, i have to report sch 8.30am on Wednesdays as well now! (9.30 Mon, 8.30 Tue , 8.30 Wed , 10.30 Thur, 8.30 Fri...) Wooo early torturing mornings.
Anyway, some of my tutorial mates did their Math Pedagogical Presentation today . Hazel was really good just now(at the end of her lesson, she gave us chocs....*ahems but seriously, its not the chocs that bribed me.) It makes me REALLY nervous now... i think they set a standard that is q. high. Hmmmmmmm zhen me ban ?! I always dont have the confidence that i can deliver a good lesson when someone is observing =/ .When we are presenting to student-teachers, we have to be really prepared. (COS, we always look into the v. small details! and today i did too when i did my feedback form for my tutorial mates. I am also being critical.)
S.T.R.E.S.S
Anyway, today our tutor mentioned that we've been good students. We printed notes, full attendance and we even make our own notes and requested for more information as compared to another programme de students(*sensitive to mention la huh...) . That adds on to my stress level lor! Everyone is so "kiasu" ! Its just not good enough to go with the wave. More! MOre! MORe! MORE! Jin needs more to stay afloat.
(Tho its kinda stress but Jin finds back the momentum that she used to have when she's in JC. =D That day Jin studied at Woodlands, she was really focused and thus productive. Good job...)
*Must praise a bit about myself la huh , so that i keep myself motivated.
Maybe reminders do help to keep me on track too. Keep the reminders floating in until i grad!
Xin ku le supervisor!

Not a matter of Pass or Fail
Recently i am seriously lack of sleep and will still be lacking of sleep for the weeks to come until yes, the reading week perhaps(if there is).
Yesterday i had my Math test, it was well, okay. I did understand what the questions were asking for, the terms used were familiar, but then, its my expression that determines my grade i guess. Oh and i am so used to "smoking", so i just hope i make sense la huh... no time to check as I was basically rushing through the paper. Being someone who is able to write pretty fast, i stopped exactly on the dot(my last full-stop) when the coordinator said :"stop writing." Hmmmm for those who wrote slower, does that mean they cannot complete the assignment? Anyway , i had Math tutorial earlier on and the tutor said that she has marked 13 scripts and out of the 13, none failed. So, she assumes that no one will fail. Therefore it is not a matter of pass or fail already isnt it ? Man, i'm really nervous and anxious to know how well or how badly i've done. Math is my favourite subject!
Yesterday when i reached home, i started working on my 2 Math assignments that was due this morning. Hmmmmm actually i've started working on the both assignments q. long ago but always didnt get to complete it. I merely sort out the thinking and everything was rather messy. Just by arranging everything neatly into systematic explanation, took me the whole night, until 1 plus am at night. Horrors to find that my printer run out of INK! And, i was rather desperate to get it printed out. (Since i have early classes at 8.30am , i have no time to print @ the lib!I n addition to that, i have 3 assignments that will be due the next day lor !) So, my kor helped me to bring all my saved docs to my cousin house... THEN! to find that the alignment all gone! So, they brought the whole printer home. So after printing and stuffs, the clock strikes 2.30am i think. I scanned through my grammar book for a while to realise that my eyelids got really heavy. In the ended, i didnt really study anything for today's test. Great! Isnt it? English somemore, not my forte.
Tho i always do last min preparation for tests, this is the first time that it is done so LAST MIN!
I read my Math textbook for the 1st time on sunday for like hmmmmm 4-5 hrs, w/o further revision, took the test on Monday.
I am now struggling to study for the Eng test, that will be held 2 hrs later. (And i am only browsing through to see how much i can capture.)
Yes, if you would have realised, my attention span is very low due to low energy level. That's why i am blogging now... no sense of urgency.
Really...
didnt i promise myself not to repeat history of doing last min work ?
I think there are just too many assignments to handle and i am really a slow worker. (My thinking process is very long, if there is any particular area that is not good, i will just stuck there forever.)
That brings me to the next point, i've wanted to start my ICT individual case study...drag and drag and the deadline is this friday. GREAT. I shall unlease the 'genius' inside me, camp in sch lib tml and complete it. Wish me luck.
Tired.

I want to remember this moment.
Its 3.45am now and i am blogging.
I have a friend whom i'm going to call him BBno.1 , is my supervisor during this difficult period of mine becos i am facing tests and overwhelmed with assignments. Bbno.1 pushes me on when i'm stressed over the amount of things i have to clear.I am not a very determined and motivated person, so i need reminders... Morning sending sms to check that i am not lazing around. Afternoon check that i am progressing and if tired, take a rest. At night check that i am still doing well.Before he sleeps, he mentioned that he will check on me in the middle of the night and thus.... Midnight, specially wake up and didnt sms me because i might be asleep, instead, came online to get me ready to sleep.
I am touched, seriously.
Appreciated.
I really want to remember this moment.
Tml BBno.1 is going to accompany me to camp @ library to study my tests.
If i get v. good grades for any of my subjects ... I'll fulfill one thing that i can do for BBno.1 and is within my control.
