Yes I've finally restarted my blog, at Tumblr.

But here still remains my good old archive posts.

Cheers! (Don't drink to that)

Revive?
  Wednesday, June 15, 2011 at 21:26
Maybe I should revive my blog to solve the lack of outflow of brains and creativity from me instead of letting my 12 plus years of education decompose in the totally mindless state of army.

How?

Night: Buffer Zone, else watch soccer

Sunday (Buffer Day 2)
Afternoon: Buffer Zone, else go JYM
Night: Chem Organic and Inorganic Revision

*In the event I do have spare time, though unlikely, practice papers, unless it's wednesday.

EXAM PERIOD

First week
Tue (PM): Chem Paper 3
Wed (AM): GP
Thu (AM): Math Paper 1
Fri (AM): Math Paper 2

This week has four consecutive days of papers, which leaves little room for revision in between. Luckily the two math papers are my most confident papers so I'm less worried, and chem is the first paper which allows me the Monday to revise. This week is awesome because two subjects are down.

Second week
Tue (AM): Chem Paper 2
Thu (PM): Physics Paper 2
Fri (AM): Econs Case Study

A rather spread-out week with Monday and Wednesday free, which allows for rest and revision. Particularly Wednesday for Physics and Econs. My aim is to keep my sanity and not get sian, like I did in Prelims.

Third week
Mon (PM): Chem MCQ
Tue (AM): Physics Paper 3
Tue (PM): Econs Essays

A very tough two days of papers. Love the fact that Chem MCQ is in the afternoon. Hate the fact that tuesday has two of the more tedious papers. My weekend will have to cover all three subjects and practice all of them. Good thing though that the content should remain fresh. After Tuesday it's PARTYYYY for one or two days.

Final week
Mon (PM): Physics MCQ

6 days break should be sufficient to practice until sian. I actually consider the third week to be the final week because 6 days for a MCQ is retarded. Nevertheless, many warnings not to slack too much and work hard for this paper.

And in one month, it'll all be over.
What a waste of a month haha.

Things to do after A-Levels
  Sunday, July 18, 2010 at 21:05
Hello everybody!

I shall be forward thinking and compile a list of things that I shall, will and must do after the end of A Levels (assuming I survive). Free time is a very valuable resource which must be used to ensure productive and allocative efficiency. Therefore to prevent me from forgetting all the things that I want to do after A-levels and end up rotting my life away, I shall keep and update this list to remind myself.

Of course, suggestions are warmly welcomed. But of course, subjected to availability of free time.

Last Updated: 25/7/2010
View the latest list at my blog

1) Learn the 'Gee' dance
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7mPqycQ0tQ
I've already learnt the chords and lyrics o.O (evidence that I'm not a closet mugger)

2) Play 'Knights Of Cydonia' entirely on an acoustic guitar
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8WP7aOD_9Q
The lead electric, bass, drums, trumpet, loops and sound effects all on an acoustic guitar (in separate recordings duh).

3) Do the 'Moskau'
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPvNlU11VBI
And attempt to play this song entirely on my noob digital piano.

4) Build a Jenga Tower up to the ceiling
Oh I just realised I did it back in my old house, but now my room's ceiling looks a lot higher. So new record on the way!

5) Play 'That's Not My Name' with stuff in my pencil box
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxbwEVgF1zo
The most unmelodious song I can think of currently. All this song requires are the drums.

6) Learn how to play 'Croatian Rhapsody' on the piano
Don't laugh, but I've been hoping to play this for a couple of years, just never got down to it.

7) Wear a 'Pikachu' Costume to Prom
So much for High Voltage. Yeah I'm dead serious.

No, not my hair.

It seems that every holiday I must be doing something related to website programming. It certainly cured my boredom for those few days and well.. helped me a lot in math. Just as well I've been doing math these few days.

I must say this was a really tough project for myself because first and foremost I don't even own a set. So I had to refer to Google and Google Image to find out everything.

Secondly there are so many possible actions. Actually this could be done in one full day, but while doing this halfway I actually forgot a few things that made me go backwards and replan. And the biggest one was on arranging property.

And thirdly, it was tedious. There are 106 cards to deal with, which I had to arrange by type. And there're 10 types which I had to individually code. And there're 4 players. Didn't want to do five.

But it really got me in touch with PHP MySQL, which is what I use for the backbone of the JYM Website, and it really helped me consider cases (in this case, many many cases) which.. will help me in PnC. Starting this whole thing, and even for the JYM Website, was the hardest because you start off with nothing and you can't possibly envision the outcome. So there were glimpses of what I wanted to put in but piecing these pictures together is a whole new story.

And then the hard part where you have to use the code available to do all the actions. It's like every other chemistry, physics and math question where a few values are given, and some formula in the back of your head, and you have to calculate values. So yeah I'm justifying that doing this is a form of mugging.

And then of course there will be errors and careless mistakes, which I had to look through line by line to see what's wrong. Pretty much like any science or math subject.

And then of course, like Organic Chemistry, everything is interlinked. One player affects the other. I was only doing coding for one player, and then I realised I needed to code for another player to test out certain moves.

So after planning, putting everything together and then beta testing (sounds like PW), tadah.

Yep. Doing this really takes the stress out of me. Studies ain't the most important thing in life..

but yeah it gets you the furthest.

I desperately need someone to take over the JYM Website because I have to step down soon and then after that I gotta move on.
