Wasted a whole day achieving absolutely nothing. I am not blaming anyone in particular, but I just want to say that if you make sacrifices up to the point that your original purpose is lost, perhaps it's time to try harder from a different angle. CREATIVITY and COURAGE people!!!!!

I really do hope that the math book publishers realise that when the answer in the back of the book is wrong, or the prove if wrongly written, you could actually KILL someone. That's what happened to me: 2 hours of doing question 14 of P5.
For those that don't have the P5 book:
Prove that the definite integral [0,1] of 2 / (3sin2x + 4cos2x) = (1/5)ln6!!!
The whole of P5 is a bitch, I swear

I've gained 6 pounds from January to now. I better do something about it.
There's this beautiful piece of music that I've heard twice in my life, and then I couldn't find it again. Don't know the composer, name or even the type of music. I always tell myself it's over, and that I might not like it when I hear it again, and 3 months later you try to find it again, knowing the chances of finding it is minute. Every time I recall it's melody, I remember my primary school friends. Derrick, Ryan, Robbie, Sean, Nicole, Tara, Aaron ... 8 years now, and I still remember their names. I still remember the first time I fell in love, the only time when she actually loved me back. *sigh* I feel so lonely working at home.

Geography exam flunked. Not much hopes left in physics and maths.
For those that don't click around my page, my icq number is 167132645. Tell everyone. Please...

(very boring)
Never have I completely exhausted myself like this before. 5 hours of pure of work in the morning! I could also manage 3 more in the evening. Why am I busying myself like this? Because I still have 12 practice geography questions, and an exam tomorrow? Of course, realising that it takes 25 minutes for each one of them, I am going to give up, thanks to a phone call yesterday and one today that drained the last vestiges of my working mood (you know who you are, ahem)! It seems that most people on Earth is incapable of drawing a plan and then following it. Which means most of us become normal people, and not a successful one!
Just wondering how does Hugh manage to work all day? It must be more than determination.
(/very boring)
P.S. If you found that boring, then congrats! That's how boring my life will be for the next 5 weeks!

**PHOTOS can be downloaded off {photos displayed in graduation ball archive}. Give me the number of the photo if you want me to give high resolution version.** {irrelevent link removed}
However, important things first: I got accepted into U of Toronto, Humanities and Social Sciences, St. George Campus. Changing into Mathematics should be very easy though, given my A-level Further Mathematics. But now the question is whether I should go to Illinois or Toronto. Illinois is more challenging and much more prestigious (than some "university" in some weird, far away place called Canada), but Toronto means there are friends near me should I need help, and it always feels better to be back to a country that I am proud to call home. Job prospects are about the same. Anyone happy to give some advice?

If everyone takes a photo of themselves with everyone else, assuming an average of 4 people per photo, and 139 ppl. in our year, then how many photos are needed? Something to think about perhaps? YE ideas anyone?
I will post photos in an orderly manner later. Still thinking where to put it. Is it significent enough to put it in a permanant section?
Any ideas?

Finally the last week of KGV! After the A-levels, I will begin a new life, with a new environment for me to do new things, and know all sorts of different people! A clean slate: how often do you get these priceless oppertunities in life? Out there, my friends are but one of many kinds of people. You won't get so much support, but we have potential to do so much more! We have struggled through KGV, maybe struggled through each other even, but now we leave and everything that we have done are but pointless memories. How often do we see our parents miss their secondary school activities, subjects, friends and teachers? Unless I am the stupid idiot around here, what is it that you will miss besides a false sense of security, in 2 year's time?
Get real.

Challange: Would anyone please teach me how to fix the thing to the left, so that when I scroll the page that thing stays where it belongs?

My heartbeat seems to run wildly these days. I am already doing exercise and eating healthy, but it seems that my heart still hurts a little. My mouth and head still feels sore, which is reflected by my performance in the mock P6 exam. Yes I admit I am stressed, very stressed, for those that know what's going on, but I am not here to ask for counselling. I am looking for short-term solutions on how to relieve the physical effects of stress, because they are starting to get in my way!
My homepage's new layout will come soon, I promise!

No school today. Not that it hurts, since I am more productive at home anyhow.
And I mean it, even with 8 hours of wasted time. Simply put, the time spent in school is wasted. Nothing productive can be done, since it's all revision. Mainly for mock exams and asking questions. Won't hurt to relax myself. So I can become more productive tomorrow.
Really, this isn't an excuse for oneself at all. Everyone has the potential to work their a$$e$ off, but ever heard of diminishing returns?
