New Year
Assalamualaikum,
It's a new year..! The year of 2012. The year when things change, insyaAllah! I will be getting my 'O' level results on 9 January 2012. I'm as nervous as can be. I hope I do well enough to have a wide variety of choices. Because, right now, I am extremely unsure of where to go. (Ok, NOW it's really new year, and there's a load of noise and screaming of "Happy New Year" greetings.. Awesome neighbourhood). Back to O levels,
I don't know where to go after this Should I follow my interests in IT, programming and games, and join a Poly, or do I risk an A level to get a much better chance of going to University. After all, the ultimate goal is to get a degree because, without a degree, you can't survive in Singapore. So, what do I do now? If I join a Poly, I have to spendthree years instead of two, which is no big deal to me. I mean, I spent an extra year in Secondary school like it's nothing, so why not spend another year in tertiary?

O levels are over!
Assalamualaikum!
At least it was over for the past 3 days. I took my last paper (Chemistry Paper 1) on Monday 14/11/11 Kinda exciting at first, but it got boring quickly. REALLY quickly. I'm bored out of my mind right now. I have no idea what to do. There seemed to be so many things I could do when I was looking forward to the end of my O levels, but now... =_=
Ok that's it.
Salam. peace!

Graduation
And so we graduated.
"Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana..."
I had a great time last night for our graduation. Hanging out with future lawyers, engineers, doctors, billionaires. It was a memorable dinner event, followed by an informal movie outing til midnight.
2 more weeks. To my O levels. This is what matters now. Good luck to everyone.
Salam. Peace.

Simplicio and religion
I overheard Simplicio's conversation with his friend a library one day. Studying for a test, Simplicio decides to bother his friend with a simple complaint, or statement if you will.
"No offence to the Muslims and Christians, but I think that religion does not show that you are more disciplined." Simplicio said. His companion just nodded indifferently, focused on his reading. "If you need a god to tell you how to go through day to day life, how does that show that you're disciplined? It just shows that you are unable to be independent." Simplicio added.
"That's why I'm a free-thinker. I can do anything I want without needing a "god" to tell me what to do." He finally declared. His friend just couldn't be bothered, buried in books.
My argument to Simplicio:
How does being able to do anything you want shows discipline? How do you know what are the right things, the right ways, to do in life? How do you know if
We are but mere humans. We need guidance at all point in life. If anything, following God's commands are the truest mark of discipline. Being able to abide by difficult and challenging principles makes you more disciplined and matured, especially if these "commands" makes us better humans.
Muslims can fast for a month, pray five times a day, refrain from pork and alcohol, and other haram foods. Christians go to church every week (mostly without fail), and they pray before going to sleep. Hindus (and Buddhists) don't eat beef. All these challenges makes people with religions more disciplined as they have to abide by the rules of their religion.
Meanwhile, you eat anything you want, do anything you like and live by your own 'rules'. You have no restrain and run wild. Way to be disciplined, Simplicio.

AEP Coursework
Assalamualaikum,
Pray for me.
As of yesterday, the deadline for the coursework was finally reached. Everybody had to stop working on their work and submit to the teacher to lock up. It's a great milestone to finally reach. And I really hope I will do well.
In other news, I had a terrible nightmare last night. I dreamt I received my O levels results and it was less than perfect. Ok, no. It was terrible. I pretty much failed everything. I felt so real, imagine the relief I felt when I woke up. It was a wake up call for me. I need to buck up, and work this last 37 days before my papers.
Pray for me.
Salam...Peace..

Preliminaries and Art
Assalamualaikum.
Yes, a third blog post in this week. Perhaps to make up for my previous lack of blogging. Indeed my second prelims have started. I've done my English, Social Studies and Elementary Mathematics Paper 1, papers so far. Everything SHOULD go fine, but hey, we know my life, there's bound to be a screw up at every corner. Tomorrow there's Chemistry, and the next day EMaths Paper 2 along with Malay Composition.
Prelim 2 will only last 2 weeks, unlike Prelim 1, which lasted a MONTH. That's because there are no holidays, etc. So yeah! English Oral is next Monday.
Art is due in 3 weeks. I'm dead.
