Speculations - a noob guess at the exams
These are only for subjects i take. Firstly, i would like to note that although i did not study much, mid-yrs would be DAMN HARD so as to try scare us. Lol bring it on man.
Maths
- Complex no - the one where they ask z = 8i
- Maths induction - the one where they ask to prove it is divisible
- Matrix - row reduction and singular matrix I, I^2, I^32 etc...
- Probability - nMN and binomial. Binomial convert to normal and...
- Lines and Planes - at least one which asks bout distance of point to line (point to foot), and of cause the axb thing to find area and angle of triangle.
- Binomial - find the coefficient of x^wadever, formula of nCr.
- Differentiation - high level questions of differentiating trigo expo log and also stuff like velocity and chain rule
- Integration - by parts, substitution, all hard integration ques
- Circular measure - not sure y it is a subject of conc camp but maybe something of that sort...
- P and C - sitting in a circle
Music
- Dido and Aeneas extract shld be from act III, cos maybe she wans to test how much we listened this year.
- Stereotypical question on DNA. Everyone, pls try to write "Purcell uses this with remarkable consistency" when talking about his use of keys.
- One Pop or jazz, one Reinaissance (shld be vocal), one traditional - probably Meditterranian or Maui.
Econs
- Tariffs will not come out, instead the arguments for protectionism may be asked in different ways such as isit good for developed countries to use trade barriers to limit exports from developing countries.
- Market structure question will be hard. I dun intend on doing.
- Market failure - maybe bout the costs of holding olympics in China.
- Inflation - oil prices - causes and ways our govt has helped curb it.
- BOP - current account and its link to FDI.
- Unemployment - nothing much. remember to include this when discussing the detrimental effects on wadever.
- Elasticities - they give 2 examples and ask wads the difference eg. luxury houses and HDB
- Distribution of income - same as unemployment
- Theory of firms - i dun think they will test like y MC cuts ACmin, but efficiency must remember for market structure.
- Comparative advantage - most likely in DRQ.
- National Income and Accounting - DRQ table which gives stuff like Real GDP growth, Unemployment level, Current Account, Consumer Price Index, external equilibrium, FDI etc...
- Evaluation is very important. In fact most questions would be like state the effects of wad...
- Policies - Fiscal Monetary, Supply side, Price and Wage control, Exchange rate.
Chemistry - Sl nia (haven studied much, bad guesses)
- Quite some stoichiometry questions
- at least 3 mcq on electrolysis
- one structure qn on the calculation of pH and the pKa thing.
- you noe wad... just do tys shld be ok.
English (yet again, bad guesses)
- Role of family/Absence of Family
- Something technical - The middle of the story is the most important. Discuss
- Self-developement is the most effective./ The setting influences the character more than he himself.
- Lol cant think of anything else. Do past yr qns.
Shld have typed this before the holidays started, dam now dam little time to study all. Bopian, still got world lit and Tok...

AliG: Ur vegetarian...?
Prof: Yes.
AliG: What if i ask u to eat a chicken?
Prof: No i wont.
AliG: i'll pay you 10bucks;
Prof: I still will not.
AliG: 100bucks?
Prof: No. No...
AliG: What if i tell you that if you dun eat this chicken i would kill another one?
Pro Hunter: We should kill this guy because he has killed many people.
Kilua: What if i told you that i have killed much more people than him?
P.h: But u are my fren... i dun hold any grudge against you.
Kilua: The people who died had a choice. They took part in this game knowing that they may die. the people i killed did not have a choice.
P.h: (stunned)
Kilua: We should heal this guy.
P.h: no i would not stand for that. you are my fren and i noe you are not a bad person.
(they healed that guy...)
Me: Wah that day dam heng we go before the crowd came. or else cannot watch spiderman 3 liao.
(i went an hour before to get the 1245 tix Jubilee first day of SP3. no queue at all... then half hour later place like dog pound.)
Ryan: ya lor or else we have to sit like first row in the cinema.

The glass is not half-full, its twice as big as it should be.
想参加活动，必须写个人resume. resume 华文是什么？继续。
我听说昨天我看到暴力事件。
Anglolympics is seriously cursed. The earth is changing rapidly so weather forcast getting unpredictable (get the pun?). that day dunnoe which sport (cricket?) had to postpone match to next day morning. after seeing weather forecast they postpone to afternoon. well morning didnt rain, afternoon rained. they postpone to day after tmr then rain again( -_-l)
Sch is seriously ponnable nowadays cos is tiring and that day's rest would reli help you much in gaining back ur strength to concentrate better for the next days.
desktopX rox.
Gonna try out Arrow, my church ministry for ppl 17 to 20sth i think 28.
Sleep is more precious than money.
Eyesight can fail u dun play so much com and stare so much at homework. Sleep.
It seems only ytd i was that sparstic kid in sec 2 dunnoe wad i doing. Time flies and now big liao. Still have that young kid mentality lei...:D
if i ran for council, i would make sure council results are released on time, and put a bedroom where we can sleep if we seriously need it.
But God give me strength to do everything. im overworked but not stressed. im sleepy, but still hyper. im in IB, but not dying.
its never too late, its never too early. kyeo.

sth to post about
foreword:
some ppl told me i wasnt posting enuf... ty dr ak 4 reading my blog:)
things to take note of:
-Econs/(business?) 1st IA is due this week, and i found few articles which i dunnoe wad to tok bout.
-Mock IOP is not to make fun and laugh at Rushdie or LuXun but rather a dry run on how Christopher and Isabella are screwed up (not that we can mock them too).
-Cant slack in EE wait teacher supervisor have bad impression on you.
-Pon school whenever possible, you would need the rest (i regen much last thursday) but maths too impt to pon.
-Voting for student council takes bout only 50% of final decision. Hence josh's theory "your vote doesnt count only if u noe this."
-The pebbles in the pond are useful -free advertising, but fishes are dying (2 goldfish died!!). Does this reflect what society is doing today?, killing nature for advancements?
-口试心非= no ones wan to do chinese oral.
-Computer games are now officially a waste of time (didnt think i would actually say it).
-Without the spammation of trees singapore would be ave 5degrees C higher.
-Good Friday is not for band practice.
-April fools should nvr be on a non-sch day.
I need more sleep.
its never too late, its never too early. kyeo.

homework
i dun get why the teachers are spamming us with so much... we have 5 working days in a week. cant they come to a consensus and like one day give 1 hw from each subject (not counting chineseB for me its boring). so sch ends late, got cca, and other commitments and travelling time and meal time and sleep its very hard to balance them. wait i try...
5homework + 8sch + 2cca + 1commitments +1travel + 1eat = 8sleep
see its not balanced! must add like 11Hours on the right side, and every H added add equal no of OH.
i hope i dun fall sick... poor yanhan and mr gaspar were sick. the weather is getting very cold these days i think the climate got sth wrong. scarly become like the day after tmr got ice age. scarly day after tmr ice age. haha wadever... but now i have to cover blanket cos the wind dam cold always blow in. and in my whole life i had nvr cover blanket except when in aircon. confirm climate got problem. get a library of books ready for burning.
go do hw...
its never too late, its never too early. kyeo.
