Just got baq home. feeling all sleepy and woozy.. *arrr*
got our chinese papers back today. i got 49!!! upon 100 for the BPGH paper. and that's so sad!! cos, i failed. i succumbed to failure again. ahh. but i got 53 unpon 80 for last year's nov paper. which is actually a B3..or was it 4? ah..whatever. it's a B! BUT, i kinda looked up the answers before so its not too counted..but ahh...nvm. i did the zhao ju and stuff on my own...so it was just the han zhi part mainly, that i err.."cheated". then we did paper one also. and we got it back today. i screwed up totally on the gong han, cos i din't even know the ge shi or formatting. and for zhuo wen, i got 23 upon 50. that's so sad, cos i thot id do rather well..arhh..i added in cheng yu's and harder than me ci yu's..and a few 6 wrds stuff..so i still dunno why i failed.
she went thru it with me today. for the gong han, it was about formatting. that i understand. and for the zhuo wen part, she said sth like..urm...my starting had a problem with it. so i had to read up on more beginnings of zhuo wen to correct that part. then come the middle, she said it was about paragraphing. that i understand too. and she kinda praised my usage of "above my ave" words..so i really dunno why i failed. unless my paragraphing was the main problem?? then another thing, was maybe i focussed on another point and strayed, instead of writing about the methods of success in studies. i went to give a list of study methods. arent they preety much the same? in the case that somehow they aren't, then i'll know why i failed. now..i have a slight idea. i think it was the paragraphing then. and mebe the slight out of point. ok. nevermind. that was two grave enough mistakes.
then later, she read out a part of it to the class...and yar. mebe that was to boost my confidence or wad..im not sure, but, it didn't quite make sense. she was just saying that even a potato like me could add in the 6 word phrases or sth like that. and then, after she read it and praised, she told me not to add too many. guess it had become too "hua she tian zhu". yes. mebe. aniwae, as she was reading it out, i think it sounded not bad you know! haha. my ending was" zhi yao wo men ken ta shang zhe tiao lu, bu pa chi ku, jian ao xia chu, cheng gong, jiu shi shu yu wo men de" haha. i like the "shu yu wo men " part. dunno why. oh well, it meant sth like, so long as we dare to take on the challenge and step on the road leading to success, not succumbing to hardships or sufferings, success, would be ours. =))
chinese revisions have been much on schedual and according to planned. i managed to finish sec 3A. will be starting on 3B tonight. what's the scary part, is not the learning but actually the making sure its in your head. ah. i dont wanna at the end, realise i actually have nothing. it would be enough to have me flip over. ohh...i want my B grade!! hmm..if i wanna be ambitious , perhaps an (A)? -whispers sheepishly-
sis said to aim at what you want, but work like you're working for an A. guess that's what il do.
