Four hours of staring at the computer later, and i've finally done my lab reports as best as i can for the time being. notice i didn't say "four hours of work". do you seriously think anyone can sit at a computer for four hours and not goof off? when it comes down to actual working time, i'd give myself 2 hours and 30 minutes at best. managed to answer most of the questions for the molecular modelling thing (including drawing 2 pretty graphs on excel!). only issue is i forgot to save some pictures which i need to answer the remaining questions. so annoying. oh well. i'll probably end up making a trip to the computer centre to re-generate those pictures. hopefully the required software is still available for use. worst case is i get the files from one of the people who are doing the lab as well.
my so-called "study day" didn't really go as planned. the original idea was to wake up at 8:00am, and work/study through the day. that plan flopped, since my ez-link card decided to up and die on me halfway through a bus trip yesterday. the MRT service staff told me that my card got corrupted, and i have no idea how it could possibly have happened. my influence isn't that powerful...right? in the end, i had to go down to ang mo kio bus interchange to get a replacement. contrary to my initial expectations, the process wasn't slow at all, despite the need to customize the card with my details. in fact, i was (and still am) ridiculously impressed by how fast they gave me a new card...it took all of 5 minutes from the time i said "hi, good morning" to the nice lady at the counter to the time the new card was in my hands. only little issue is that the value in my old card (which comes up to about $17+) can't be immediately credited into my replacement card. i'll have to go to any ticket office in a week's time to settle that. not too troublesome, since i can do that at bishan MRT on my way to tuition this coming sunday. it was quite interesting, in a way, because that's never happened with any of my previous ez-link cards. there's a first time for everything, i guess.
speaking of tuition, my sec 4s have all sat for their prelims. as a tutor, i think they didn't do too badly (2 Bs and a C i think...one of the Bs may be an A. i can't really remember). they didn't meet my ideal expectation of all A1s, but i think i'm ok with that. somehow, i'm not too worried for them. my prediction is the worst grade that any one of them will score is a B3. they seem to be fine with that, so mission accomplished on my part, i guess.
i am now SERIOUSLY ANNOYED by my dad using my charger. it's more of a location issue more than anything, seeing as my charger is on my computer table. things get moved around, and that makes me extremely...displeased. i think i'll move my charger to a less private area, so i don't feel all that irritated.
ok...i think that's it for me at present. as a reminder to myself, i have 3 mid-term tests, on modern chemical principles on monday night, maths on wednesday night (yes, you read those last 2 right. tests at night.), and physical chem on friday afternoon/evening. not to forget my lab reports, which should be done by wednesday. meanwhile, i'm going to rot my brain in front of the TV for a bit, then (try to) get in some study for tomorrow's paper. don't think i'll need it, since it's just a little elaboration on a-level stuff, but one can never be too prepared, right?

-random thought of the day: Should I make a library trip later?-
