okay okay. so tomorrow's the first day of school. a few things you guys nida take note of.
one. well, school IS starting, so obviously you guys will have to adjust to doing homeowkr again. for all you gamers and procrastinators, it's time to exercise some good old self discipline and get down to work.
two. the great massacre (EOYs) are two weeks away starting tomorrow, so start panicking! steal, rob, copy, by any means get your notes, practices, revisions and start doing it PRONTO. 2 weeks isn't that much time to revise so many subs. though the teachers will give revision, try to do some extra while you can. after all, no harm in doing more than less.
three. CCAs are off for about one month from next week. so most importantly, remember to maintain all-rounded development. yes, i sound like your mum, or miss ek. but it is important. sports people remember not to slack off, do some training or physical exercise in your free time. clubs and societies people can um... do what you do in the drama studio or com lab. except, at home. infocomm people can always learn new programming stuff on google. CLDDS people can always practice scripts at home. since nobody is looking, it'll probably feel better. for those in aesthetics just remember to keep practicing those few important pieces to keep in 'shape'. nothing to do? take up your instrument and start practicing. for those UG people it should be like, quite slack for you coz all your activities involve platoon mates, squad mates, equipment blablabla. i know you guys'll think of something.
four. manage time. since the great massacre is just around the corner, MAKE SURE YOU REVISE. i'm sure none of us wants a class average of like, 1.5. yeah. so, study hard.
i quote the whipwielder. 'it's going to get tougher, not easier.'
so. it's. time. to. pull. up. our. socks. and. show. the. world. what. 3. i. is. made. of.
(besides flesh, bones and muscle of course)

okay then, let's see what the damage is, shall we?
Language Arts:
Don't forget to prepare your speech on the preservation of a building in S'pore. Slideshows(visual aid) is due on wednesday(09/09/09) and presentations start first week of school in index order. Yes, Averil, that means you. Do remember slideshows can only consist of one slide, so make it impactful. no animation is allowed, no sound too. it'd be best to practice, you know, recite a few times in front of the mirror, coz you're not allowed to bring in a script. Yeah, so to all you procrastinators out there, better start writing and remembering, or you'll probably end up stuttering your way through the whole thing. For those who don't feel like dragging their arses to find a building, here's a useful link: reclaimland.sg/rl/ As for the speech, keep in mind which question you chose. if it's (a), to a board of managers, then i suggest you take a formal tone. for (b), to classmates, you can write the speech in the tone of this post.
Chinese:
There is a chinese worksheet, i think. I vaguely recall her giving something out, just can't quite put my finger on it. Eh, come on lor, you got pay attention during chinese one meh? anyway, besides that, those in the chinese remedial class can log on to IVLE for further practice. Though i'm pretty sure no one will. Just try, okay?
Physics:
here we go again. okay, at least this time we have no past year papers. what we do have, is assignment 11, on pressure. remember that the make-up class is on Friday morning at lab 2, so don't be late or you'll end up standing outside. Things to bring for the make-up include your long ruler, pencil box, calculator, your brain, and your physics files(just in case). She'll be going through the test, then move on to the thermal notes, so do remember to bring your notes. otherwise like Averil. *SIIIIAAAAAAKKK*
Chemistry:
Not much to do actually. for those of us who actually understand what's being taught, you're kinda safe already. for those of us who don't, i'd advise revision during the course of this holiday. since we already have the topic list, just try to reinforce the concepts and equations. Lastly, there is also a Chemistry assignment on Rate of Reaction. please remember to do, otherwise Mr Lee has to beg us for 4 weeks then end up giving us the answers in class again.
SCS:
Only one worksheet to do. i think it's graded. do it even if it's not please. Powerpoint slides are all on IVLE, download, then just transfer it on paper.
Math:
Revise your trigo and make sure to finish worksheet 11 and 12. for worksheet 12, skip all questions on elevation and depression. For the revision worksheets, i quote Mr Liu. "dun lost can oready lah."
Literature:
Ms Teo probably takes a century to mark the tests. ah well, there's only an essay to do, on the elements on a novel. namely plot, characterization, themes, socio-cultural setting and writer's techniques. the task is to pick 2 of these and write 3 paragraphs for each element, kinda simple actually. "it's elementary, dear Watson." please laugh.
History:
i don't really know what homework there is for history, but you can always ask Cyrus the pro historian. If even he doesn't know, then either it's gonna rain rabbits, or he's got a bad memory. can't blame him. blame bunnyprecipitation.
Geography:
who am i kidding. the PRCs probably memorized the whole frickin homework list. i don't even need to include this subject. for those PRCs who (one in 5million chance) don't know, please consult another.
okay. finally, we're done. i'm not going to wish you happy holidays coz i think it's cruel to rub it in. kinda ironic how teachers give out homework and still have the cheek to say happy holidays. ah well. when the going gets tough, the tough start eating.
now where's my donut.
Inkblot.

as he lay there, motionless, hitless, on the cold cyber floor.
the binary code in a flashy green colour. beside him the others flourished.
but he lay there dying. he lay there disabled due to poor html coding, with his visitors unable to scroll down.
but an Inkblot painted him, and set him on his feet. he felt revived and alive.
yea. we renewed the class blog.
