Haha my D&D for Bioprocessing Technology Institute (grand park city hall) hotel was great. My lucky number 064 won this oven! It was the 8th prize.



The funny thing was that the 9th prize was a standing fan. And i was mocking away at the person who got the fan, about how he was going to transport it back on an MRT.



Then I had to get this oven... I ended up taking my mentor, Dr Geoffrey Koh's car back to serangoon MRT station. From there, my parents picked me (and the oven) up.

Havent been able to blog recently due to upcoming op which requires are large proportion of my attention.

Anyway, My OP is 2mr. Please wish me luck/pray for me! XD

I did something horribly retarded today. I had one of those slow cooker pots. Less than 10 cm in diameter. For small volumes of food/liquid. Its like less than 3mm thick. Evidently, not meant for heating over the flame.

Unfortunately, THAT WAS ExACTLY WHAT I DID. I wanted to cook instant noodles (with little water) over the flame. However, as the pot was not used for a while, it was rather dirty and thus I had to wash it. Well, after washing, it was wet. So i set the little pot on the 2nd biggest flame on the stove turned to about 2/3 max to let it dry first before i added anything - the rest had pots/woks on it, thus I would need to remove them if i wanted to use them. So I went to get the packet of instant noodles....

Unfortunately, when I came back, about 20 seconds later, the pot was glowing red hot and lost its shape (there was like a convex dent in the centre!) So i quickly poured water in and lowered the flame. The water coming into contact with the red hot metal wasn't too nice an experience. Now the pot obviously cannot fit into the slow cooker anymore. When my parents come home, sure tio screwed!

Today was the very first time my Project Work group met OUTSIDE of school. VERY FIRST TIME! FYI, our grp meets VERY VERY rarely, occasionally during our PW lesson. Only 3/4 of our members were here today anyway. Coincidentally, all of us were christian. Anw, I prayed before I came for the meeting. I was like praying that the meeting wouldn't be fruitful. After which I went for the meeting, and the typical meeting stuff. After that we came to our public education part. We were stuck. Stuck for quite a while... I was at first demoralized. THEN SUDDENLY, BOOMZ! (as in seriously BOOMZ.) Leonard threw up an idea about the model thing. And WOOT we took off - without a runway. At the back of my mind, I was like "Praise God! Hallelujah!" I wouldnt say this is a TESTIMONY, but I believe that God is working in us every single day, every second. Anw PW ideas were out and we were done in a jiffy...

Went to church for sound duty after that.... Sermon was rather interesting. Too late for my exams though. Haha.


Sermon content:

1. Why bother?
- hard versus soft
- the 3As that matter

2. What does the scripture say?

->Why bother?

Because studying:

is not just about getting the TOP score
Not just about gathering hard skills
(technical stuff eg math, science, econs, languages, engineering)

I'ts also about maximising your learning
Gaining soft skills
(eg character building, interpersonal skills, right attitude, foundation)

Galatians 5:22-23






->The 3 A's that matter
What is looked for by interviewers:
1. Aptitude: Ability, Skills/competency,Experience
2. Attitude: Hardworking/consistnecy/discipline, Adaptability/flexibility, Perseverence/tenacity
3. Aspiration: Desire to achieve, Hunger, Passion




->What does the scripture say?
1 Corinthians 9:24-25
Hebrews 12:1b-2a
Colossians 3:23
Proverbs 12:14
Philipians 4:6
Ephisians 3:16


->Tips for studying smart
1. PAY attention in class: Be a consistent worker, be disciplined; do not skp your lessons, do your homework daily, revise regularly
2. PLAN your timetable: Fail to plan=plan to fail; set a realistic timetable, plan some buffers; stick to your plan, adjust if necessary
3. PREPARE yourself well: set aside some time to study everyday; pace yourself, keep the momentum; make good summaries and notes
Summary=very powerful skill in life.
4. PASS your exam papers - A MUST!: do and do, anticipate questions; get help for your week subjects
5. Proper meals and sleep: Eat prooper meals, on time; at least 8 hours of sleep
6. PLAY hard: excercise, relax the mind
7. PARTNER/PEER PRESSURE: form a study group, sutdy with friends; don't be afraid to ask for help, clarify doubts; good to have some peer pressure, create competitive spirit, comare results
8. POSITIVE spirit, outlook: treat each failure as a learning experience, a stepping stone to higher ground
9. PERSEVERE till the end: do not give up, keep going and finish the race; give yourself some motivation/aim after the exams; be very disciplined, do no be distracted.
10. PRAY, PRAY, PRAY: seek the Lord and ask for His devine help; Remember to pray before and after every paper; achieve results that will glorify him; adopt the right attitude that wil bear witness for Him; till people around you sahy " there is someting different about this boy/girl...; Study for Him

Ok. Time for a short little emo post.

Failed 2 subjects. Math & Econs. Prepared to take R-paper. Sigh. There goes my H3. Life terribly sucks these days.

I thought it was bad during exams. After exams its WORSE!

PW is crappily done. Oh, and I'll bee needing to go back to BTI again.

That's all for now. Super tired and super lazy.

Went for Wedding Videography on Sunday with Mr William Wong. Got $300 for that. Today went to treat Mr Stamford Wee, Zhengyee, Wei Ren, Yong Xiang and Chang Jing (oops hope i spelt your name correctly. Never intended to treat you, but since you were there, why not?) for dinner at subway. Spent $50 plus. Still have my godbros that I haven't treated to yet. Haha. Promos coming. The timer is at the bottom of the page xD
