BIOLOGY PRACTICAL TODAY WAS A KILLER. To everyone in shift 1 and 2 in my school anyway. We were locked up in the AVA room after our practical. Sigh. I was pretty tramatised. And really dreading physics and chem practical on thursday. I feel better now lah. Am just gonna pray hard and trust God. I think I would pass the paper. But like maybe just pass. And I'm like hoping for a distinction in Bio lah. Oh well. I know bio's not an easy subject to score. but I really like this subject.
You know what? Our teacher told us that microscopes are out of the syllabus. Then hand lens came out instead. And no one in our class has ever seen, let alone handled, this apparatus. IT WASN'T TAUGHT TO US. Luckily it was easy enough to figure out how to use it. You could figure that out by staring at the picture on the box it came in. But a lamp was provided for you to shine light onto it to see better. No one in my lab did that. Everyone thought the lamp was to confuse us because they purposely gave us a lot of extra apparatus that wasn't needed.
Actually the paper wouldn't be that difficult to a school of higher standard. But was to us as it had very unexpected questions, you had to be very accurate and because of the silly hand lens thing. One thing is certain-last year's paper is definately easier. argh. Wish I'm born a year earlier. Last year's POA and Social Studies was easy too. They only needed to learn 3 chpts for social studies' esseay question. We have to learn 5 and hope that 1 comes out. Because it is harder to spot the essay questions for our year.
Today I was about about to throw the word 'friends' out of my dictionary. Then I read Claire's blog. And she wrote that she would be praying for those taking the biology paper. It really touched me. The friends that I can really count on are in my cell. I have to apologise to someone. It's mostly my fault. But I didn't mean it. sigh..hanging on to a thread that would snap anytime without warning.
