30 September 2011:

Today is Friday, the last day of lessons.

But that's actually fake when you're from Upper Secondary. There are still lessons after the exams, and almost every day ends at around 1600 hrs.

Of course, I don't hate these lessons. As a cohort we voted that we would have no extension lessons, but our school hours would be extended after exams. So it's a fair deal.

Mr. S is a really dedicated level master. I'm sure everyone can attest to that. He would print comics and caption them with words of encouragement, or sometimes slight threats of what will happen if we do not meet this round.

So far, he is the first level master I've seen doing such things for us. Although he frequently makes us stay back after FRC to speak to us, at least it's because he is often worried for us. (Of course I have to admit sometimes it's a little long and draggy ...)

The exams start next week. "EOY" trended previously on Twitter for a while; I wonder why it disappeared now? Anyway, this would probably be the last post before the exams. I am planning a strict revision regimen for the weekend, and I hope to stick to it.

Previous plans and timetables were always ruined due to the very bad habit of mine named procrastination. And maybe you could consider laziness as another factor. This time, the weekend before exams, I really want to stick to it.

Good luck to everyone having their exams next week! And of course, good luck to me too. :)

TTFN.

People of mediocre ability sometimes achieve outstanding success because they don't know when to quit. Most men succeed because they are determined to.
