Wee - the weekends

Illusions

Aren’t they just fun? When I mean fun I mean being swamped with loads of crazy homework? Let’s see what I have to do before Monday’s classes shall we?

  1. Physics project proposal - I’m going to do something on cosmology, which if you didn’t know (like I didn’t) is about the universe: the creation of it, the planets etc., something like that. I’ve been reading or more like staring at the book for hours - it’s just filled with alien language! But yes this is due tomorrow because I have to ask my aunt to print it since, of all days, Physics happens to be the very first period.
  2. English annotated bibliography - Never seen those words before? Basically, for research, we use sources like books, websites right? So for this assignment, I’m supposed to get 4 sources and do a proper reference - yes, there are different styles of referencing. We were given examples on how to but the problem is, they weren’t all like “constant” (can’t find the word). Even online, sites gave different versions of the Harvard style. So, I wasted my time looking at all these sites. Don’t ask me why, because now I know I could have done my homework and slept earlier last night instead of at 3 am. Right, back to topic. I also have to read through the sources and summarize and give a critique. Also need to finish it at least before lunchtime tomorrow because English is the second period and so likewise, require my aunt’s printer.
  3. Specialist Mathematics Common Test - I need to do practice tests because trigo. prelim. is NOT easy. There’s one whole bunch of formulas and then, there’s applying them. And they all can be confusing considering they basically involve cos, sin and tan. Oh and also, we’ve been on this topic since college started where as other subjects, we’re already at topic 3 or so. What does that mean…
  4. Homework - Some leftovers from the CNY break and also I think, there’s new ones. Like, for physics (man, not again), have to do the report for the practical. What exactly I have to do is to type out everything that’s on the 4 page practical sheet given and then fill up the data, answer the questions, write a so-called “discussion” and draw graphs by hand. Not due Monday so that can wait.

That’s what I have to do. Oh look only 4 items, so easy! .. NOT, but I wished. Oh oh, I also have two more tests next week on Thursday and Friday. All these tests coming up contribute about 5% to my final results.

I haven’t and won’t be updating often because all these work I have. Really, the weekends are never like the weekends anymore…

BUT, there is the mid-semester break to look forward too! 3 more weeks peeps! *hint to friends in Brunei*

    Those homework really do sound hard when you detail them out like that. lol. Makes me wonder if I’ll be facing those as well, which i probably would. Must enjoy whatever free time I got left before then. And, by hinting at the end, does that mean you’ll probably be going back to Brunei?! Hmmm!

  2. angel Gravatar #1318

    yes! your hint has been acknowledged! :D

  3. CHRIS Gravatar #1323

    When exactly are you coming back? We’ll go out (though some of the guys are already long gone)! I’ve been bumming around at home doing nothing productive and I’m bored. See you when I see you.

    Don’t worry about homework yet Steven. It’s not time YET.. but of course, maybe if you expect it to be so, then it’ll seem like you have not much of homework then you won’t.. complain? Yes, ENJOY NOW!

    Haha. That’s good, Angel!

    Exactly, 8th March night. Yeap, a few of the ‘usuals’ (that’s what Jay calls the.. “group”) have left Brunei.. like me! I wouldn’t mind bumming around really. I’d be glad to! Of course I’ll only do that if I don’t have hw. What’s the point if I end up bumming AND thinking about homework at the same time right?

    Assignment 2 is pretty easy. WE have to do like bibliography for all our research assignments thing - which is like practically all our assignments.

    :P You’ll get use to it, actually. And oh, I’m so glad that I didn’t take physics cos I would have to have done that last year and Specialist too :P

    HAHA enjoy! ;) It gets much worse :P

    Haha I seriously never remembered SAM being so work loaded. But maybe that’s the way life is. Once you’re past it you’ll only remember the good times. So make sure you allow some time to have fun =)

  7. Autumn Gravatar #1348

    Haha. I just started so, yea, it’s something new. Wow, thanks Esther. I’m GLAD to know it’s going to get worse =p.

    It is work loaded! But maybe not all the time. Just so happens they all are due at the same time. Yeap, I’ll try to have as much as fun as I can!
