Exam review.

Alright, now its my chance to procrastinate before the major exam. And since i have the time, i'll do a little review. I'll begin chronologically. English paper wasn't as bad as before and if you ask me, i think i'll clear with reasonable results. I hate the fact that i am required to conjure a story line in half an hour and write something in the order of "creating a character, giving the character an issue and solving the character's issue on his behalf". I'm talking about writing a narrative. My ideas are down to earth (the last time i checked) and it hardly runs wild and i loathe thinking on my feet. I'm better at argumentative but school discourages us from trying it. Not that they disallow it. Functional writing was simpler, a Tsunami newspaper report... sheesh right... Humanities was next, nothing interesting except that i was pressing for time to complete social studies. I guess i spent more time doing structured essays that i did with source-base i was rewarded with muscle cramps thereafter. Geography wasn't hard, there were only questions i never anticipated. There was one with regards to a section in the book which i never ever laid eyes on, that cost me eight marks... sigh... Nothing to say about Add math except that i hate trigonometry. Left those questions blank and drew smily faces instead. Elementary math was a breeze except for paper one which was pretty challenging =)... Chemistry was good but i made a silly mistake. Physics was too easy and wasn't even 'O' level standard. Biology was interesting, My classmate sitting next to me was used as an experiment in one particular question... heh, it was hilarious. I was giggling at my seat and the invigilators couldn't figure out why... yeeps, i dare say it was quite an experience having the examinations in the hall. It gives the graduating classes a taste of 'O' levels.
