Really, i barely spent any time doing anything constructive. i spent the entire of friday's study session writing out my 3 CCA write-ups for the SGC, only to find out that the KM administrators literally forgot about us (the drop-down menu for choosing your class only goes to 09SH26 -.- the last class always gets forgotten). then saturday wasn't much more productive anyway, only managed to inch through a bit of chem and econs. and on sunday... about that later.
about the SGC write-up: i have no idea what i'm supposed to do. nobody has any idea what we're supposed and not supposed to include in it. i really wish that the school had gone into greater detail about what is the whole purpose of it. is it supposed to flaunt our CCA achievements? or express our personal qualities? do we include as many achievements as we can or just take one to focus on? it's all so ambiguous and confusing, and the worse part is that any screw-up will be permanently in our SGC D:
have you guys heard of One Moment of Glory? AKA OMG? it's kind of like Singapore's Got Talent, except there's the added element of contestants being able to challenge each other instead of judges or voters having absolute power over who should be sent home. so anyway, my uncle had some friends who were competing, so he got us tickets to watch the recording at Mediacorp on sunday. being at the recording is really nothing like watching the programme at home, and i don't mean it in a good way. there are pauses when they are setting up equipment or the judges are backstage deciding on their vote when there'll be this guy who tries to keep us entertained by playing minigames and giving away prizes, but the novelty wears off really fast. there are some perks to it, i have to say. you get to see the behind-the-scenes interactions between the judges and the hosts, which is quite refreshing. and of course you get to see the outcome of the show a week or so earlier, if you follow it. so if you really like the show or if your friends are competing, then it's a really enjoyable time, otherwise, prepare for stuff like clapping and laughing and oohing and aahing non-stop for a minute so that they can get stock footage.
i can't believe that i actually went to a TV recording when there's only a week left till prelims. stupid me, STUPID ME. it's all coming too fast.
