Seven weeks, it is time, and there is time to salvage everything. It means not sitting here whining about "i am useless", it is about spending the time with ur books. It will be truly miracle if u get AAA or similar. But i can assure u, that, if u start NOW (which means this very second) ... A "CCC" or "BCC"  or similar grades awaits  u ...

At least, it will look better than "SSU" ... Go ahead ... Mug all u can, time of is the essence ... (Please follow a study smart system ... and not steam blindly ...) JIA YOU!!!

you know, to make it worse, i know that i will not be happy with anything less than all As, and thats whats making me feel so depressed. because im so far away from that. i kinda feel im capable of that, but my results have so far been proving it otherwise, ive so much at stake by not doing well. not getting into uni, getting looked down upon by my fellow competitors. we started out from the same secondary school and at that time, i was near the top, then they went off to the top jcs, while i opted for a humbler, lower ranked jc. i need to show them that i can do well even though im not in the top jcs. oh, thats besides the point now. i know what i have to do. i just have to put all my emotions aside and just get my ass down to do some serious work. its kinda sad im drawing motivation from over here. :)

for me, national schools ended in july, i started hardcore studying quite late, say about 4 weeks to prelims. but i started studying in april, actually, like really doing my tutorials and studying my notes. i read through my notes, memorised stuff, and whack prelim papers. i did the papers, then i corrected myself by checking with the answer sheet. i didnt clear all the questions i didnt know, because too many, but i managed to ask my friends some of them. quite the standard studying method?

Maybe it's not so much about the amount of effort you put in, but the quality of effort you put in. It's like.... there's no point in studying for six hours straight overnight in a zombified state when you can study for two hours in a peak mental condition.

If I may ask..... how do you study for your Prelims?

 

 

to make it worse, my teachers suck. totally.

my math teacher ignored me for the entire year. whenever i ask her questions, she seems so reluctant to teach me. and i get so fed up.

my physics teacher is a tyrant. he screams at you when you dont know stuff. and asking him anything is like not asking anything at all. he’ll say things like ” like that la. like that also dont know” you like that like this, how i know. and he never gives answers, and expects us to know how to do the working. is it good? i learn from reading worked solutions.

my chem teacher is ok i guess. she just thinks im stupid and not trying hard enough. and even though im like one of her weakest students, she doesnt seem to want to put in effort into teaching me. like theyve all given up on me, because so lousy already, teach for what. might as well teach the students who can get A and help pull up the school’s msg.

my econs teacher is ok too i guess. but he kinds of ignores me. like leaves me to my defences. if i get A, good. if i fail, too bad.

why??? why do my teachers suck so bad. they are not encouraging at all. they put me down all the time. they make me think im stupid. i dont feel like i have to study hard for them. i wish i had nice teachers so i feel motivated to study for them, to make them proud. part of me feels like failing and just blaming it on them. another part feels like getting my As and shoving that in their faces and telling them ” There! i got my As without you farkers! ” i dont know what to do now.

PCME

finding it very hard to get motivated. because for so many years, study also fail, dont study also fail, its reached a stage its easier to just give up, it feels so pointless

Frustrated, discouraged, depressed, angry, highly emo

7 more weeks. tell me how to jump from U to an A? tell me how to jump from SSU to AAA?

i admit that i havent been the perfect student. i havent been paying attention all the time, havent been doing work all the time. i swear i studied. i put in the effort. i read my notes, i memorised my stuff, i did practice prelim papers. i tried.

now my parents think i havent been studying all those last nights out. my teachers think im stupid. people are talking about getting As at this stage, and me, still trying to pass. my peers think im lousy. stay back in school to study so many nights still fail.

i dont need all these discouragement at this point. i dont feel any motivation to work harder because i feel so alone in this sinking ship. i want to prove everybody wrong. but my motivation comes from myself, which is so weak and so without conviction. i dont feel like ive gotta study because my teachers and friends and family are behind me. no. im alone in this race with all these skeptics just waiting for me to fall.

ive been trying since J1 last year. i swear i studied for every exam. i already did all that i could. am i really destined to fail and cry on the day of A level results? its not like i didnt study you know. i tried already. or is it really not hard enough? i used to be able to say without a doubt that i did my best and so accept the disgusting grades, but after so many times of thinking i did my best, and yet not performing, im starting to doubt if i really did my best?

i know my stuff. i know the big picture, but i dont know the tiny tiny details. i cant memorise for nuts.

i know i mustnt give up. i cannot give up. but throwing in the towel feels so damn easy now. seeing my peers just stresses me out even more. im scared. i often think about the day next year when i get back my results. and i get the sinking feeling in my heart. i cant picture myself victorious. i can only see myself crying. and its gonna be because i did badly again, even after i did my best.

dont get it

i am not fat. just trying to emphasize that fbts are short even in XL. so if you re wearing S, then it must be super short

and im not revealing my statistics somehow feel you have an ulterior motive for asking that??

haha numb from what?

ya, what the shit. i wear XL.

i so slim also wear L size lehz..

 

i thought TS is a girl. i thought most guys rather wear berms/ shorts that are longer. fbts too short la, unless for exercise, then never mind, but for going out, errr. guys show the thighs very weird.

the only nice thing about them are the colours. haha

yay yay yay yay yay tomorrow last paper!!! prelims are ovaaaa
can go partay le!!!!

2 sticks of fried sotong from old chang kee
damn fried, damn oily, damn fattening, but i dont care.
yummmy

lovely night

oh great. i started a hello trend
bye!

thanks for all your encouragement, my seniors. im getting Us, ungraded, so if i want to jump grade, must really make it a VERY big leap

i think i flunk prelims liao lor. it was so horrible. and im worried. because i always lose steam after studying very hard. and my "studying very hard" also not say very hard, as compared to my friends. on a good day, i study up to 6,7 hours, then will deflate already. thats not a lot.on a bad day, i cant even sit down with my notes for 2 hours straight.  then i have hard core friends who can stay back and study in school everyday till 10 or even study overnight on top of a whole day of studying. i shouldnt be comparing but they make me feel inferior.

one thing to be glad about. my prelims are almost over! left mcq papers next week! yay! can play one week during sept holidays! jia you for the rest of you taking prelims! my school's prelims damn early la, i end already, you all havent even start.

i got a lot more to rant, but ill come back later. gonna check out the olympics closing ceremony!

oh, my thumb is still numb, even when im not writing, but its a little better now, just not as normal as it should be. it gets worse when i start writing, but its ok la. so much for mugging

oh so sad, i realised my whine about a levels 2008 thread is already expired!!! thought of reviving it since its the prelims period now, and soon a levels. but never mind, i shall continue here

hello!

its always like that. i can chiong damn hard for the upcoming exams and by the time the exams are here, im out of gas already. i have this belief that last minute work is no use and that as long as i did my stuff, theres no use cramming at the eleventh hour. and thats why i like to take it easy during exams. but peer pressure just makes me feel like im slacking. and besides, im not all that prepared. as in i could use more time studying. but i just cant !!!! i cant study. im afraid ill die for A levels because rightnow, for prelims, i feel like dying already. i think i wont have the stamina to go through the real thing. i should prolly just go sweep the roads

its 1.45 am in the morning. i have a level prelims paper tomorrow. and i just finished watching 2 movies. die liao lor

thanks!

but my thumb is still numb. four days already. whats wrong?
