Its been a long week man. Very long.
Boy, after monday i dunno why it felt like Thursday or something.
But God lifted me through la.
Haha, his help was very apparent from day 1 la.
Read James's blog about the 5min thing he had for Amath P2, and i have my own 5-min miracle for EM P2 as well. 5mins left, i was stuck with the 2nd part of qn2 on trigo. and bearings. Trigo. and the circle properties had been my serious weakness for EM la, just the inability to notice stuff. and i was looking at part 3, part 4, freaking hell if i had the ans to part 2 i cld apply them straight away.

AND THEN IT CAME.

wow i suddenly realised the alternate angles and managed to finish the rest of the qn in 5mins. and checked ans with my friends, it TALLIED. omg. huge relief. in fact, after the papers were collected, i was staring right up [in this case its the ceiling but where else man]. just amazed.

That was a huge lift for me la. That night, i was so tired la. History and AM were to follow on tuesday. I have gotten A1s for history in every exam, i didnt want to waste it. But, my record for AM was nothing like it. Its been pretty cursed. 3 times ive gotten 74.k, where k<5, lol. and then there was the horrible C5 for last yr EOY. i was determined to set right AM. so i decided, i would study less for history. i did cold war and fall of communist govt. in the afternn, not throughly at all. and at night was a rush of maths. i got so pissed over PnC, integration, and i focused alot on ABSOLUTE VALUE. ok it didnt come out on P1, bud it did eventually for P2. Going by the trend, absolute value always came with big marks. BIG. and so for tues, hist, every1 was predicting MAO would come out. i was so shit-ed. usually only 1 topic came out for each theme. Theme 3 had Cold War, MAO, and Fall of USSR. if MAO came out i'd be done. DONE.
And surprise surprise, cold war AND mao came out. huge relief. My history record should be intact. and AM, i was careless at times, bud fortunately the mistakes occurred at the "show" qns, so its easy to spot them. and i did EITHER for the last qn. huge relief. 2 tough days settled. Wed was less stressful. the compre passaged quite touched me la. recently i read a sunday times article about a CEO who died of cancer, and he said cancer gave him the best months of his life. it was so touching. back to the paper. it was tough, but still OK on the whole la. Thurs. CHINESE. no nd to say. its a joke really. i didnt know the guy died. i thought he left for somewhere or something. [do i understand chinese???]

Alongside that, physics MCQ was tough la. really tested deep concepts like the shorter e dist, larger the field of view. and magnetic field on moon doesnt change. and the Paper2 was better. MUCH BETTER than the chemistry paper on monday which is [im sorry bud the critism has to flow again] FREAKING LOW STANDARD. like WTH? lifting electrolysis qns frm papers which we hv been told to do? what is this man. give us free marks for what. and ask us 3 times whether is exothermic or endothermic. whats the problem man. no arrogance, but big occasions such as preps. should Really test students la. sigh.

Friday's AM turned out to be quite challenging. first qn last part just needed area - area, i ended up using cosine rule and then 0.5absinx to find the area, bud the exact value at the end was comforting. then i loved the absolute value qn. i was praying it would come out, and it came out big. summore for quadratic eqn. so it was pretty doable. i had practised hard on transformations la. so, in conclusion, im really hoping for A1 for maths this time. That the hard work would pay off. Anyway, if i dont, at least, ive did the best one can do, and that's TRY. [thats quoted from Roger Federer, tennis's no.1 player].

Now i just want to end the preps. on a high note. [PLEASE GOD!]
will update plenty of things, including what i think of THAT headbutt.
FORZA ITALIA anyway!!!! [i am so unfaithful to Les Bleus].
