english speech and advanced arm drills

well today had english speech...its our 1st time attempting at tis component and being judged by a teacher...well and i used to tink wad ivan yak was doing in a classroom with only a teacher a few tables away...my initial thought was tt he was presenting some ideas regarding the school to the teacher...lol... well today was the 1st from my group to be tested.. tink i fared fairly well...might have a chance at getting at least 30 i tink...THQ said his impromptu qn was screwed up....and he did horrendously terrible for it...no idea..but he said the 2nd of the 2 qns asked goes like tis:

mdm J: Do you have any family members that was a criminal previously?
THQ: no....
mdm J: thank you...you may go...

and YXJ's was also quite cham...he finally finshed preparing his cards but only when mrs TT was abt to arrive liao...i did a trial run with him...and he ended up finishing his speech at 4.17mins...which was 1 min more than the time given...well he might have gotten off scott-free as mrs tt didnt time anybody..i tink...as she didnt do so for me...

well enuf of speech...now to training...learnt a number of advanced arm drills....wonder if there are much more...well quite interesting i have to say...gotta form a U-shape b4 staff YH taught us the drills... but the command for executing us into forming a U-shape was very chim and long... and we gotta know it for mutuals...which mean killing a few more brain cells again...looking back at the time when we racked our brains to learn PDS and CnC...it doesnt look too difficult as we had thought initially when we 1st learnt...but we didnt learn it in a few days or weeks..we learnt it in arnd 3-4 months... so judging from tis..my guess is tt we would also nid a few months to get the grasp of mutual...which sounds very chim...well PT was exciting...ran 10 rnds on the track with the rifle...woah...for the 1st 6 0r 7 rnds, we gotta run with the rifle at least at the height of our head..so rather hiong...then after tt...like play a game with the NCOs...a challenge to us to be able to keep our rifles throughout the whole of PT....

seriously gotta admit i quite suck when i run with the company of a heavy object as shown during tis training and OT...when we had to carry 2 1.5 litres bottles filled to the brim with water...well we have gotten over another important chapter in sec 2...english speech...and we can finally focus back on the basic foundation, compre and summary, now..and also narrative essay and unseen poetry...well tis yr had certainly gone by very fast....with all the ups and downs...and we r nearing the final league...presss on! its only a few weeks more...and we would find tt our work has been worthwhile...if u didnt even try..u will nvr know ur potential...and thus will regret not trying...dun always be so pessimistic..though i tend to be one at times as well....

its the final league of the yr! the final countdown...19 more days to our End-of-year examinations... approximately 6 more weeks to o levels... gd luck to all.... the friends out there... and the seniors who had guided us through the past 2 yrs... (:
