didnt do well for lsm1101. total heartbreak, im in the lowest 10% of the cohort, thats how bad it is. the thing is, im well aware of where i went wrong only AFTER the exam, again. argh.

sometimes i wonder whether im even doing the right thing by going to science. i feel dumber and dumber everytime i dont do well. i seriously dont know whats going on.

and i dont get why im doing better for my arts mods. you know, it REALLY makes me want to switch to arts.

im even wondering whether i should just quit nus and go elsewhere to do something which i really want to.

i think a lot about the stuff im given, im just not sure why i cant present it out during the exam. its not hard. maybe i just can express myself better in words, calculations is just not my thing.

i probably can write a nice bio essay for you, but i just cant calculate out whatever coeff/value/estimation under pressure.

i really dont know.

its worse since im alone.

woah, taking my 1st elit test in a LONGGGG time. havent touched elit since sec 2, and 6 years later here i am again tackling elit by the horns XD i really really hope to ace it though.

2 poems qn, and 1 qn on the great gatsby, so its a '3 choose 1' scenario. so i shall list out here the key terms for poetry, lest i forget.

Assonance
The repetition of similar vowel sounds in a sentence or a line of poetry or prose, as in "I rose and told him of my woe."

Ballad
A narrative poem written in four-line stanzas, characterized by swift action and narrated in a direct style.

Blank verse
A line of poetry or prose in unrhymed iambic pentameter.

Closed form
A type of form or structure in poetry characterized by regularity and consistency in such elements as rhyme, line length, and metrical pattern.

Couplet
A pair of rhymed lines that may or may not constitute a separate stanza in a poem.

Free verse
Poetry without a regular pattern of meter or rhyme. The verse is "free" in not being bound by earlier poetic conventions requiring poems to adhere to an explicit and identifiable meter and rhyme scheme in a form such as the sonnet or ballad.

Foot
A metrical unit composed of stressed and unstressed syllables.

Imagery
The pattern of related comparative aspects of language, particularly of images, in a literary work.

Rhyme
The matching of final vowel or consonant sounds in two or more words.

Rhythm
The recurrence of accent or stress in lines of verse.

Sonnet
A fourteen-line poem in iambic pentameter. The Shakespearean or English sonnet is arranged as three quatrains and a final couplet, rhyming abab cdcd efef gg. The Petrarchan or Italian sonnet divides into two parts: an eight-line octave and a six-line sestet, rhyming abba abba cde cde or abba abba cd cd cd.

Villanelle
A nineteen-line lyric poem that relies heavily on repetition. The first and third lines alternate throughout the poem, which is structured in six stanzas --five tercets and a concluding quatrain.
