Experiments

Nico says that apparently year 3 teacher's golden couple between a certain maths teacher and physics teacher are no longer together. It seems its now the maths teacher with a environmental focus group teacher. It seems that the former couple weren't sitting at their usual place in the SAC and that Ms Dheepa was sitting at that table instead. Oh dear.

In Nico's words, "The end of the world is near"

Its funny how Language Arts B is filled with so many awesome one liners...

(Daryl says something that makes fun of a Malgudi Days character)

Ms Ho: Stop being stupid! (finger waggles and head bobs)

Daryl (in hurt voice): Madam.... that was very insulting....

Ms Ho: Yah. (nodding)

Richard Chan was reading parts of it, so he faked an Indian accent, swapped the W and V, and make a laughing stock of the whole story. Ms Ho's expression was priceless when Richard got to a one liner dialogue and pronounced it as "Vhy?"

Oh yeah, and Ms Ho was explaining to us how procrastination works. She's really good at elaborating :) PEEP. 

"I shouldn't let you take work home. Because then you will procrastinate."

"And then you procrastinate. And when you procrastinate, it gets worse." (she leans alot to one side when she does this kinds of topics...)

Jeremy's answer to Ms Ho's question on what is the meaning of the literary device "bleeding heart"------

"Means there's blood like spilling out of it...." (at the same time Joshua was singing the song "Bleeding Love" by Leona Lewis)

Then recess. After recess was where Ms Ivy Goh threw a b**ch fit during chinese lesson. Then she was screaming at everyone. And we were all laughing.... Here are the main reasons why she threw a fit as awesome as this one...

1) She noticed that someone had disturbed the date for chinese ting xie (ahem. me :)

2) During ting xie...

     Ivy Goh: “啊！这么多字都不会写！你是不是准备去 Chinese B?"

     Jia Yuan: "啊！应该是!"

3) During ting xie someone didn't know any single word. So she scolded him and asked him to copy ke ben. Then he went and argued for like 20 min. Then Ivy Goh spent the rest of the lesson shouting about our "attitude".

After recess was Physics practical. Not much, just teacher's demonstration on a ticker timer. Then was Chemistry practical. Which I messed up. I don't get it, I try so much excess yet the precipitate is still insoluble. Dunno how Mr Peter Tan got it to dissolve. Then I got chemical burn again because of a dropped with a cracked tip, which made it drop rather inaccurate, and the size of the test tube mouth isn't exactly big. This time it was sodium hydroxide. 

Then was Language Arts Quiz, where Eric Bea won. I felt quite bad for getting 3.8 kicked out in the preliminary round... :(

Then was science research practical... so many practicals today :) We do theory work on wednesday and practical work on friday and saturday. Which I why I am quite upset, cuz I miss most of the practicals. I only managed to come today because no NCDCC.

We got to do some year 5 practical involving diffusion dishes, bromonthymol blue, enzymes and inhibitors and their ratio to each other. It was quite fun :) 

Except that Hendrik (indonesian scholar) was being extremely and excruciatingly irritating>:( Try to take the samples I prepared, then keep saying bad stuff about my practical skills. Yeah? Just because I accidentally snapped petri dish sealing parafilm doesn't make your practical skills any better. >:( 

For the record, my team took half the time it took for your team to finish. And we even managed to include a positive control setup. And most importantly, we weren't the one who messed up sets of results because of cross-contamination by pipettes. >:(

Yeah, apart from that, the experiment was awesome :) I love the color of bromonthymol blue upon contact with ammonia.

Someone asked me why I was so emo... I think I finally found a satisfactory answer to that:

Sometimes I wish life were simpler. But life is a little more complicated than that.
