Term1, Week8. (28/02/2009)
Subject: The normal week.
I craved for the end of this week. This week was myriad with tests and homework, and more tests, and more homework. It was as though teachers deemed we had latent abilities to cope with all the stress that was acting on us constantly. It was, however, an abortive attempt to pass my E maths with flying colours - I did not study for the test.
It was yet another week passed.

Term 1, Week 7. (21/02/2009)
Subject: The weekly life.The week had passed and here is another entry. There was nothing much to write about, the daily life that had repeated itself for
manifold weeks, and weeks to come.
I had overslept on the bus on Wednesday morning, and it was quite late. I got off the stops, and I did not know where I was. However, it was lucky of me to have spotted schoolmates all walking in a certain direction. I was rather
resourceful, and followed them. The plan was
impeccable. I managed to reach school on time.
During the extra lesson after school on Thursday, I was exceptionally
assiduous as we had missed two geography lessons which meant that we were slower than others by two weeks already. It was
fraught with knowledge I had to understand but I absorbed them using the methods taught by the teacher.
It was indeed a hectic week.

Term 1, Week 6. (14/02/2009)
Subject: Start of my CCA leadership course.Today was the start of my Cadet Leader Training Course (CLTC), which was the course the Sec 3s had to go through in order to take over the entire unit. It was actually not as difficult and tough as I had imagined it to be, but the lectures were lengthy and had much information that was to be absorbed by us.
We had to have certain attributes: Becoming a coterie, altruistic in helping one another, gergarious, getting out of our bulwark zone, etc. It was hard to communicate with the instructors, as we were indigenous to them. Nevertheless, they tried to portray a friendly image. It was quite a nice day today.

Term1, Week 5. (07/02/2009)
Subject: Coping with stress.
Time flies. Week 5 had flew past without me noticing it. I needed to make full use of the time during the weekends, to do my homework and relax myself.
I often declaim that I would be able to manage time well, but seems like I did not manage to do that for this week. I had many homework that was undone, and had to rush them during lesson time. I feel that that was an extrinsic excuse that was used to deceive myself.
It was obvious that I was sick of the everyday lifestyle of studying, studying, studying and studying, but I had no way to get out of that. I had to
persevere through the remaining three-quarters of the year. Though the coming weeks would mean
asperity, I would not want to be the
accomplice towards my failure.
