The Saga Continues
Interestingly, but not unpredictably, my efforts for the Bio paper paid off today, and I found the paper more than doable.
The weirdness came in during the Lit paper. We were seated and ready to start, and when Ms Nansi told us she could start, and we turned the page, she LAUGHED. Yes, I kid you not. Although the other students were busy concentrating on the paper, so I doubt they looked up to notice. But I was freaked out of my skin. The H2 essay, being a topic paper, couldn't be screwed up that badly, but the H1 essay was impossible. I think the Lit department didn't take the MCTs seriously, and so for fun just purposely set an undoable paper. I mean, see the transcript of the conversation we had just after the paper.
Ms Nansi: Guys, I apologise in advance for the H1 essay!!!
Every Lit student's thoughts: WTH WHAT WAS THAT MAN???
Ms Nansi: Really, really, I apologise!
Some girl in front: MS NANSI I'M GONNA FAIL!!!
Ms Nansi (calling out): Ok, so how many of you think you're gonna fail?
*Like, two-thirds of the hands go up*
Ms Nansi (laughing): Walau, cannot like that one! Self-confidence is the way to go! Can pass one!
*Ms Nansi laughs evilly*
I just hope that the Chem paper tomorrow isn't as crazy. It's already worrying enough that a rumour is being spread around that the Chem department extrapolated that any student would be lucky to get more than 42%.
Oh, speaking of studying for Chem, evidently, the stress is getting to some people. Check out this transcript.
Context: Before this, Ayto Faiz had done a quiz on Facebook which told him he had qualities similar to Asmodeus, the demon of lust.
Kaizen (talking about a friend): And he damn bad eh, insult her like that. ('Her' is a girl Ayto knows)
Ayto: HUH HOW DARE HE INSULT HER LIKE THAT??
Matthew: Huh, you are attracted to her?
Kaizen: Walau eh, and he asks why he got Asmodeus...
Ayto: What?? True what, how come I get Asmodeus???
Matthew (to Kaizen): Eh, true leh, you know, just now I performed a test on Ayto. I asked him if suddenly one of you all came into the room and said, "Eh, I downloaded porn, let's go watch!", how would he react? And his answer was "I WANT!!!"
Kaizen: YA LAH ASMODEUS LAH!!!
Ayto: Eh, I joking only lah!
*Kaizen makes to go away from the room*
Ayto: Eh, Zen, Zen, wait wait. Come, you test me now, see whether I fall for temptation or not.
Matthew: WALAU EH YOU ALREADY PREPARED LOH!!!
Ayto: Aiyah, nevermind lah. Come on, Zen!
*Kaizen utilises the skills he got from the SJI Drama Club*
(Translated from Bahasa Indo)
Kaizen: Eh, Ayto, I downloaded porn! Wanna watch?
*Ayto pushes up his glasses and looks at him patronisingly*
Ayto: No man, must study for Chem.
*120 dB laughs pervade the room*
"We must study Chem". Coming from the guy who, two hours ago, didn't know the difference between an alcohol and a carboxylic acid ("Both got OH what!!") and just tried to confirm with me what else was under carbonyl compounds besides carboxylic acids.
