update heh ▲



Hello there :)
Here's a quick update hehe.


The last time I posted was the end of prelim1 and the motivational talk that the secondary4 cohort had. After that, I got my grades! I didn't do as well for prelim1 as I had expected to before the start of the papers. I had only one A1 and that was for Combine humanities. I failed two subjects, combine science and amaths. I really need to buck up for the upcoming prelim2. And believe me, i'm working to my absolute best at the moment to push my grades up. 

My D&T marks dipped from an A1 to a B4. What made my heart ache more was the fact that I was probably the second in the cohort, losing to the top of the cohort by a mere 1 mark. Well, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger right? New found motivation to push me even harder for the next prelims. 

After the release of the results, they started asking those who did badly for the core subjects, maths and science, to stay back in class till 6pm everyday to complete our tenyearseries. Apparently that was not enough to assure our dear principal that we will improve. So he pulled out the bottom 45 students of the cohort to form another class where they study mostly maths and science from 8am to 6pm everyday. That made our main class even smaller :( And mdm cheng said that our class will keep becoming smaller as more students are taken out due to bad grades.

Tbh, I don't see how taking students out of the class to form a new class where they had the freedom of choice whether or not they want to stay in class and study was going to get anyone anywhere, but who am I to judge right? haha. 

Okay moving on to fun stuff. The other day, we had our 2.4km run at Bedok reservoir. To think that it would rain and the whole run was cancelled. I woke up so early just to travel to far and so long to a run that was cancelled. But nonetheless, 4Everest made the best of it ;)

Selfies with the class haha because we cool :p






White ganggggg.



Dream . Believe . Achieve

















Oh trust me, there is so many more photos that I've not posted up haha lazy :p 
Do you still not see why I love my class? 

Oh and recently I FINALLY started on my d&t practical for my olevel project. That caused me to stay back in the workshop everyday after school till almost 7pm to complete as much as I can everyday. And omg I cannot emphasise just how accident-prone I am. I have gone to the workshop for 5days already and I leave injured every single time. I guess that why it's considered a subject for guys. HAHA so stereotypical though.

Prelim 2 is starting in 2 days, guys. 
Sec4 life is way too fastpaced and stressful for my liking tbh.

I guess that's it for this post! :)

Project super achievers. ▲


Hello!
Happy april the second hehe, a day after april fools!

So this is the first week after our tough prelim1 ended and the school decided to send all the sec4s for a 3day motivational workshop. 'Project super achievers' as they call it. It was 10hours of workshop for 3 whole days. ok so tbh i wasnt looking forward to it but then it started and really, it was damn fun haha.

From the 3 days, I learnt that i have the personality of a talkative and easily distracted person that rely mostly on my right brain. Our life coach was Coach Charles and omg he was so funny and nice and TALL. omg guys he was 197cm like how how hOWWWW

We also did our part to leave our mark in Edgefield Sec as the pioneer batch as we spent a few hours in the art studio painting our aspirations on tiles that will be mounted on a wall in the school in time to come. haha i want to be an entrepreneur so guess what i drew. ;)


oh cmon dont laugh at my drawing. i aint no art student.


Moving on, I learnt that I passed my D&T prelim1 and it made me even prouder when mdm cheng said that out of the 18students in our class, only 3 passed. so that made me feel even more accomplished. But on the other hand, mrs tee told me that my SS deproved alot and that I didnt get an A :( hopefully i got a B haha sorry but i might cry if I got any lower :x


I guess that's all? trying my best to update my frequently now hahahahaha.
Byeeeee.
