I spent my Friday with a whole bunch of high PRC scholars in the boarding school's function hall so as to witness the closing ceremony of the Beijing Olympics. It wasn't as long as the opening ceremony of course, but the same fact remains; it was equally impressive. But it was really really sad when the Olympic flame was extinguished from the giant torch. The Beijing Olympics was certainly one of the best I have witnessed, with multiple athletes setting new benchmarks. However, Malaysia did not do quite well this time, but it was still ranked at 71 alongside with Singapore which also garnered one silver medal.
My weekend was quite great; it offered some rest for me before I'm going to start working on the EOY exams. But it was really a cold weekend with the rainy season coming about. And thank you to Yujing for making my weekend so special xD
Today I was excused from lessons early at 11:30 am to prepare for my Malay 'O' Levels oral exam. I returned to the boarding school to retrieve my exam slips, and went to Tiong Bahru SEAB Centre at around 12 PM with Lionel, Kai Min and Meng Hang. We went to Tiong Bahru Shopping Centre for lunch at Long John Silvers before leaving for the Centre.
Reached there at around 2 PM. The SNGS Malaysian scholars were there too. Pretty much everyone was doing some last minute prediction before going into the waiting room. Li Wen and I were the last in waiting in the waiting room (in fact I'm the extreme last! xD) Both of us had to wait around 2 hours (around 4:30 PM) before finally entering the Silent Reading room. But before that I was quite a little zi-highing with close to no nervous feeling (dunno? xD)
With all that preparation, it turned out that the oral exam was SOOOO much easier than we expected :D Especially with the "conversation" part. As for the reading component, I think I didn't do too well for the start (forgot to use standard Malay, or Bahasa Baku), but it turned alright later. There were two examiners, and both of them are Malays. They *looked* friendly but MIGHT have a killing intention LOL. The conversation part was just about shopping (: Which I think the girls may have an advantage of.
Tomorrow is Projects Competition Grand Finals selection round. This will ultimately decide whether I get to enter the Grand Finals or not. Hopefully I'll do the best (well, this time with my teammate Jay's assistance) so as to end my high school years with a bang (not THAT, sickos =P). And Physics is on Thursday. But yeah! Chemistry test is going to be on Term 4 Week 1 so I don't really have to worry about it for the time being.
I may go hiatus anytime (:
