My apologies.

It's been some time since I last updated. Anyway, school has started and I'm already up to my neck with the amount of homework. It only has been the sixth day of school and there's so much to do, yet so little time. Well, I was kind of looking forward to going back to school. Not that I'm crazy or anything but, it's just the holidays. When they come and you had enough fun, rotting at home and almost believing that boredom could actually kill you...you wished you were back at school. Once school starts, you found out that what you said that time was so absurd that you'd rather be rotting at home than be at school.
Maybe that's just the way it's suppose to be? Heh.
Surprisingly, this year Chinese became one of my favourite subjects. I guess it's just the teacher. I'm not implying that my previous teachers were not good, it's just that her teaching style is different. Slight changes could do us some good after all. Recently, she just gave us a short paragraph to memorise for our paper one. It turned out to be really fun and hearing her singing our praise really made my day. Her name is Mrs Tang and she teaches only the sec fours. Although she said that she isn't really popular with the students in the school, whoever she teaches is sure to like her. She kept stressing on the amount of hard work we must put in in order to be ready for Chinese 'O' levels on the 1st of June. It is coming real soon and when it does, I pray to God that I'll be able to score well so as to focus on the other subjects.
Speaking about the other subjects, Mathematics is scaring me. It's not that I don't understand, but she's just going at a too fast of a pace. I do get it, I just need time to let the things sink in. Plus, she expects us to give her the answer almost immediately after she asks the question. I need some more reaction time to think!
Now, as for English... I kept feeling so inferior. My English standard is obviously below the other two in my class who are also taking express English. Recently, we have been learning how to write descriptive essays and our teacher told us to describe three things. A building, a watercraft(eg. a ship or boat) and a scene at the Singapore river. Since I don't have a wide range of vocabulary and not much ideas to elaborate on, the small paragraph was made out of words and ideas that looked like as if it was written by some primary school student. I feel utterly embarrassed to have to hand it up to my teacher. Descriptive writing was never one of my fortes. Unless I was given unlimited amount of time to write it and a dictionary, and perhaps a thesoraus beside me and of course, the mood to write. Then I am able to produce something of proper standard.
Sigh. Now lets talk about what's killing me the most. Homework. I have incompleted art homework. One that I don't really feel like doing and another two that I am so excited about. The first one is drawing a slice of bread with all the annoying details IN BLACK INK. I have to finish that later or else mould would start to grow. The other two is to make two drawings of anything I like. My first one would be Kim Jaejoong(Heh, Dong Bang fan) and the next would be my pair of awesome(awesome-ly free, that is!) sunnies I got from my father. And of course, not to forget the Chinese comprehension that has a really interesting passage and page 387, question seven of the PoA textbook.
That's sec four life for you. there's more to come where that came from.
