finally, an update after a fortnight. always have little to update about when school's out. okay. i'm prepared to fail with flying colours in my upcoming common tests. cos no matter how hard i revise, nothing seems to be able to get in. even for maths questions. what seemed so familiar last year looks so alienating now. not to mention my humanities subjects. econs is a goner no matter how much effort i put in. so i won't spend much time revising it. more time will be spent on geog and maths instead. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- my targets: * GP - 60% and up shouldn't be a problem (: * econs - i'll be more than contented with a pass (45%). * physics - 55%. not too confident with the topics taught this year. * maths - 55% as well. i'd need intensive practice to get to a B grade. * geog - 50%. get the case studies right and it should be okay. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- well, enough of academic stuff. the new laptop seems to be taking ages to arrive at my doorstep. it'll be delivered this wed evening. but the remaining two days would seem to take eternity to pass >.< ytd was father's day. just like mother's day, it was to be pretty much of a non-event for my family. my swimming class was at 7.30pm, so couldn't join my relatives for dinner, end of story. ever heard of a company called Venture Era? well, it's a relatively new kid on the block that promotes healthcare products. i visited the company's premises two days ago. * // as to how i managed to end up there, it's a long story and i shan't elaborate. the job being offered to me is that a freelance marketeer. today, i'm still considering whether i should take it up. after all, i don't have any background in marketing skills. haiz. let's see how things progress then. =/ before i forget, maple news for you~ i've advanced to level 89 last night. and now halfway to 90. coolie maps are really slow by now. and this is further confirmed when i went over to zipangu's parking lot map today. here, training rate with two hermits = 7.5% per hour. much faster than coolies' 5-6%. but meso drops are poor. very poor indeed. for the 8 hours i trained there, i only gained like 1m? =.= but for fast exp, some sacrifices are bound to be made. okay. that pretty much sums up this fortnightly update. more updates to come once school reopens~
