trip to Cameron

last tuesday, my family and some relatives drove up to cameron for a short holiday.we used the old way up as my dad wanted to eat mountain durians. So, we drop by this stall that we went last time to eat some. i was ready to eat some good quality durian, the seller open and saw this big fat worm inside. it was so disgusting.. opened a few more and about 80% were spoilt, i lost my appetite. however, my dad continued eating although it has worms...he purposely choose the one that was eaten by squirrel too. apparently it's the best.Dad:" elaine, you know why the squirrel want to eat this durian, because this durian is good."

anyway, we reached our rented bangalow( Hilltop Bangalow). the place is owned by the yee yan sang family. the stuff inside are mostly antics even the basin and the bathtub. their shower heater uses the gas stove and u can actually see the fire when u shower. quite scary. the weather there was really good. freash air and super cold. i shiver in my sleep.

the next day, we went to hunt for strawberries. <3 love strawberries. after visiting cameron so many times, i finally have to chance to plucked the strawberries. it was fun bringing along my cute nephew and see his reaction while looking for big strawberries. we only managed to pluck about 10 big ones before my nephew complained that he wanted to go back. So, we had to ask a worker there for some help. The worker was very nice to help us pluck about 12 big, red sweet strawberries in such short time.* big red ones are quite difficult to find* washed the strawberries and ate with everyone. it was good. the ones we bought after that cannot compare to it.

other than that, during my free time, i read twilight and finished the book. i've forgotten the storyline so i've decided to read it once again. now i'm reading new moon. plan to finish reading it before i watch the movie. during the night, we watch movies that my dad brought. the first night, we watched The Accident, a hong kong planned "accident" movie. it's quite cool how they make murder into accidents. the second night, we watch Pelham 123. it's quite a good show, i would say. lots of suspense.

anyway, this trip was a relaxing trip, the cool air made it feels like we were overseas. now classes has resumed as normal for 2 weeks. i need to exercise!


the mist is so nice!




nice flowers. they are super big!

econs and physics paper 1

econs paper 1 was easy =) quite a few past year questions came out. i hope i can get at least 28/30.

phys paper 1 was sad. =( i have already 7 wrong. haizz simple mistake 1, can't decide between 2 ans and ended up choosing the wrong one about 3, and dunno how to do/really did not think about it hence wrong about 3. phy and elaine have no connection at all man... haizz usually past years questions are like so easy but when it is the actual exam time, it's difficult. is it because i did not prepare well for it? maybe,how well is well? it feels well but during exam it's just X.X always...

can't believe exam's ending next monday! =)))) exam feels like a very long time.. 6 weeks. and it's almost over. i want to do so many things after exam.. time feels short.

i want to :
shop
watch lot's of movie
karaoke(first time want to)
sleep
buy fiction books to read
go holiday!
skating(but so expensive)
visit JANE's house
have an outing with my good high school girl friends <3

exam phobia - hate it =(

"There is nothing worse than, after all your hard study, you walk into your exam and your mind goes blank. Your nerves and anxiety get the better of you and your brain simply stops working properly!

This is a well-known phenomenon in psychology - known as state-dependant memory. The state you are in determines what you can remember. If you are in a very different state to when you learned, it is hard to recall things.If you are very anxious, your brain is simply in the wrong state for thinking! "

sounds a bit like my case just that my mind does not go blank? still have some irrelevant and useless points stuck up there.

Econs paper 2 was quite an easy paper, i would say, but i have just no idea as to how i could have fumbled. Usually, i would think the paper(eg. chinese Spm *for me*) was difficult and yes, my results will turn out to be super bad. But, this time, i found the paper easy and yet my brain was not functioning well that i rushed through everything = made careless mistakes?(not so much.) + not writing ans + not seeing the obvious points that they give. My data response was hell bad although the questions were easy.

i've never felt so sad for any paper in my life before. Every time i see my econs file, i will never stop wondering why did i write that kind of answer. it's like low grade answers that i usually do not write. it always happen and as my mom said, i have the tendency to perform well in mock/trial exams, making everyone feel there's a high possibility of getting an A, then after coming form the exam, it's NEVER an A. is this call exam phobia? you do opposite of what u usually do? i rmb telling myself before exam to separate the time for section 1 (45 mins) section 2(45 mins), but when i go into the exam, it was section 1 (30 mins) and section 2(1 hour). i was practically rushing data response when their weightage is the same.

i feel so sad that i disappoint my teachers, who i think had faith in me getting an A , my parents who also thought that physics was the only worry and worse of all, i disappointed myself. i really hated myself for being like this. n now i m really afraid of doing the same to other exams. After econs was statistics. usually, i would come out from statistic feeling normal or happy *cos it's a maths paper*, this time i felt almost like shit. i saw the first question and i was like wth. tried to do std dev for about 5 mins, gave up and started to feel really scared, continue doing 2,3,4 which i later have no confidence in any of the ans anymore, came question 5 which was like ... The first time i saw it, the first time i did, i got a probability >1 and in my heart, i thought to myself that i m in deep shit. the next ques was histogram, i never liked histogram but lucky thing i knew how to draw. when they asked to calculate the mean and std dev. it suddenly hit me, how to count midpoint? i used my hands to find the midpoint. how pathetic was that. i just do not trust myself. *cos in a state that makes mistakes easily* i have no confidence in any of my ans, all of them felt wrong at the ed of the exam. until i discuss some with my friends. i felt relieved. but still lost 3 m already.

If you are not an A material,don't force yourself to be one. i know i m not an A student but seriously, i studied real hard for econs in hope of getting a A, at least above 80% and this just had to happen. No one in the exam hall can feel the disappointment i feel in myself. When i saw my econs teacher and we went through the paper, my teacher asked me what happen to you Elaine!?!? and i was like i dunno. =(

i guess the worst case scenario is an ABB for AS, which is really bad. i really hate it. but what can i do now? i still have 3 papers more and if i go on feeling like this, i will make my econs and physics from B to C. it's time to get over it and stand again. 1 more week!
