Well. I didn't get into the Projects Competition Grand Finals. Well, that was to be expected, since we weren't really really well prepared. But it was certainly an experience; and at least that A* (High Distinction) is ours to keep.
Re-calling the day; Jay and I met up at 4L (my class) to finalize everything. As we discovered more loopholes and flaws in the presentation, we only finished the presentation slides at around 5:55 PM. And we thought we would be late. Our group was scheduled to present at 6:30 PM, and we had to report at 6 PM.
However, when we reached the High School General Office, it appeared that every project group (Chern Yuan, Hou Yin, Daniel and others) were delayed close to an hour. So yeah, extra time to prepare. But we didn't really do anything much then, as Jay and I were really really tired waiting for our turn outside LT3.
At around 7:15 PM we went into the Conference Room 1, and were faced with 5 (or 6?) judges, including many "high profile" teachers such as Ms Yeo Hwee Joo (Dean of Studies), Mr Steven Su and various others. So we presented normally but apparently our presentation was still TOO technical for them to understand. Unlike Daniel's Infocomm project, our group did not receive too many comments from the judges. And Ms Yeo said that my pronunciation had problems (lol, probably due to the lack of water).
As the judges weren't paying attention at all, we concluded preliminarily that our presentation was badly done. Well. Not only that, it was really really tiring - I reached the boarding school at 7:50 PM, and I realised that I haven't started preparing for Physics at all.
When I returned, I started studying for Physics, but the next moment I found myself asleep, and well, I woke up at 4:30 AM in the morning. And so I pia-ed until it was time to go to school! xD But luckily it was raining that morning - so I managed to finish studying everything by the end of reading period.
So, the Physics test was quite alright except for some flip flops in certain areas (scam questions =.=).
Thursday was quite a slackish school-day as we had NIE tests and surveys. Which translates to only 2 lessons for the day (double Maths). The rest are all assemblies, etc.
Use your hands campaign (for those who don't know, it translates to cleaning up the classroom) was particularly fun, and I guess it was the first time ever that our class was so involved and high in cleaning up the classroom LOL.
Caleb stacked the chairs till like close to 3 metres high, throwing unwanted objects and books around, etc.
It marked the "unofficial" start of the school "holidays". (:
