Sabbaticals are over, which means we have to get back to normal school life of studying, even in the last week of term, there's physics, chem test, and bio spa. We would have math too had mrs khoo not changed it to term 4 week 1. But then again I hope it won't become like the first math test this term when everyone screwed up cos we didn't remember anything.


The bulk of yesterday was all the presentations. For ours, no idea why ngpeng kept laughing lol o.o then one part was something about excretion and he suddenly said shit and then i went o.o


We also continued re crsytallising our aspirin, but it didn't crstallise o.o only the scgs groups one managed to solidify a bit. Then we use thin layer chromatography, with silicon beads that when accidentally scratched off and turns into dust can enter your lungs and irritate your lungs and you will die, to check the purity of our aspirin. Ours had some other weird compound inside. So she said something like, you guys can't be drug dealers, your cocaine will always be low grade.


Then the male teacher went on to tell us about how during his nus project, in order to get honours or something you have to go extract 6 new compounds o.o sounds easy. Anyway he was extracting the poison from rock fish or stone fish or whatever fish that looks like a rock/stone, or bird or ram o.o okay jk. Then he used around 40 fishes, he extracted the poison by pulling out the spines and everything, sounds painful. And after kiling so many fishes, he only got 2ml of the poison lol.

After school went to salt centre, saw people playing badminton lol. Part c 08 badminton fever. First everyone get flu, now get fever. Went for training for awhile then had to leave to help in ptg, all the boarding school people had to help.

Did the info counter with yangcheng. It's at the info counter where you get to interact with the parents..and meet some..special ones lol.

Yangcheng: May I know which class your son is from?
Parent: 3 something

Me: Qing wen ni de er zi shi na yi ban de?
Parent: 3C
Me: o.o

Me: May I know which class your son is from?
Parent: 3A1B1

Me: May I know which son your class is from?
Yangcheng: -bursts out laughing-

Still got many more, but got one, the best.

Parent: -walks up to counter, sticks paper out with class, register number, ic no. written on it, but no name-
Yangcheng: May I knw your son's name?
Parent: -sticks paper out again- you should know better than me
Yangcheng: Erm, what is your son's name?
Parent: -same thing- you should know better than me

How can we know your son's name better than you lol, aren't you guys the one who named him. Queue to meet miss chua was super long, wonder why so many parents want to meet her lol.

Comments from teachers for me were suprisingly..okay. The first thing my father said when he saw me was, you need more rest. Apparently most of the teachers said I slept in class o.o mrs koh my bio teacher said i fell off the chair???? since when lol. Mrs khoo said i ask too many questions o.o no wonder she always ignores me lol. Hmm what else..nothing interesting already.

After that went back to boarding school to get stuff then went home. I got a decent amount of rest lol. Shall try my best to stay awake, last few weeks of lessons before exams already. Jiayou =)
