Japanese police run in fear

the last before A levels

This is the last ever post before the A levels. 23 days left. A levels lasts 16 days. So 39 more days to freedom - and the next post after this. After x number of days of freedom, it's time to enlist into PES C1L2 version of BMT, whatever is that.

A level preparations are going fine. No worries at all. Just that GP I need to memorise 1 megaton of examples before this monday which is the mock paper. Econs I'm like mugging content now.

Friday's chemistry mock was kind of difficult. On the 1st question, I calculated my initial rate using the gradient of the 2 reaction graphs but the gradients I got went haywire. I just simply put 1st order with respect to [H+] even though the results wern't that obvious that it was. The second question I bombed myself by not answering a 1 mark question that was simply a matter of writing a single word - "postive". The 4th question elucidation I was stumped. The LiAlH4 can't possibly give 2 products with an ester because that reaction isn't in the syllabus. It was the case, my teacher said, the ester got cleaved. On the net, I found that that makes 2 alcohols. Whatever lah, my elucidation gg one. Must go work on it.

Enough of matters that are too academic. After baccalaureate service, my class went to 4.6 cos the class rep got this surprise he claimed to take 8 hours to do it. Yup, it is a video! Not released on Youtube yet (later get screwed by the teachers who want privacy). Darren also invited all our teachers along, but the most important one, Mr Lim, got a meeting. So he never watched it with the rest of us.

Good job Darren. I didn't know beforehand that he actually interviewed all our teachers. Wow.
So yeah, the whole class got fired up after the video. And we actually could take a bus to vivocity together. Well, after lunch at Carl's Junior, every clique went off their separate ways. -.-

So did anyone notice something strange on baccalaureate day? Ok, apart from an excess of camwhoring by many people, what else? Did anyone look to see anything on the field?


An aerial view from the roof.
Can you see what the letters make out to be?
You can probably see "exams". Then on the left? ♥. Yup, ♥. So ♥ exams, apparently so.

So what? Nothing unusual, could just be a bunch of crazy acjc councillors making stuff and leaving it on the field. NOT!

It is a hack, like the MIT hack. Looks like an epic fail here.

Well, some MIT student wannabes wanted to emulate a MIT hack. The plan was to hang "I ♥ exams" across the field by tying a raffia string from the flag pole on the roof of the viewing gallery to the giant lighting pole on the other side. So they stayed late in school on the day before baccalaureate day. At about 11pm, they tied some string to the flag pole on the roof above the viewing gallery. Then, the security guard came over downstairs and they had to stop work. Nah, that's not the end. The security guard went away and they continued on. They pulled the string all the way to the end of the field. Then they realised they got not enough string. They pulled the string and it snapped. Game over. The result: What you see on the field.

That was not all. They wanted to do something with the the plasma screen in the hall. To display something the next day perhaps. They already got the high-tech equipment ready to do just that. But it was already so late, so they decided to call it a day.

Don't ask me why they chose "I ♥ exams". Those people are just a bunch of ultra-smart geeks. If you count the number of them in the J2 level, you probably know there just a few of them and you probably will know who did it. Yeah, of course I know who did it, but I won't tell anyone.
