Heya world! It’s been awhile since I posted, and I know I’ve been really slow on everything. I am evil!
Every one of my friends has said that to me. I rock.
I scare Janice Chen out of her wits too.
Anyway, that’s not my point today.
Today I am here to blog about the NUS SPH Geog Challenge thing, which is suicidal, mad and insane. Which is not good.
Anyway, got there quite late I think. Adeline’s dad’s car’s tire decided that that day would be a good day to blast a hole in its vulcanized rubber mad thing and went full steam ahead with the plan.
Of course, it DIDN’T consider how mad Adeline would be when she found out. Anyway, get there in time, my dad acted mad, for some obscure reason, driving me to North Buena Vista and then pointing out some Biotechnology Faculty to me and telling me that that should be the place I should go then almost stopping in front of the NBV MRT station and asking me if this was where I was supposed to go.
‘Err… no? It’s Clementi remember?’
‘Oh! But this is so much nearer!’
‘I don’t know! Ask Adeline!’
‘Okay.’
He drove to Clementi anyway.
So then we got there and then we were early and spent some time colouring and quizzing each other on Capitals, it’s really cool, like you screech out any Capital or country, and have people telling you the names back.
Eg.
Kathmandu!
Quito!
Le Paz!
Jamaica!
Addis Ababas!
Brussels!
Sofia!
Bueno Aires!
Greenland!
Islamabad!
Uhhh…
Dhaka!
Canberra!
Stockholm!
Colombo!
Dakar!

Thanks Gerard!
Hahahahah
Anyway, uh…
Point is, the stupid quiz was so hard to do, don’t know how to do so many, and we were supposed to do 30 questions in 30 minutes and it was scary and irritating and I hate that bloody stupid blur map that doesn’t help much in reading the map with the bloody symbols put BEHIND the entire map making it hard to read it and it being so bloody small and…
We took such a long time to find out seats that the English lecturer seeing us maneuver so slowly like big bustling galleons of gold that he commented:
‘Isn’t it a bit ironic if you’re taking part in a Geography competition and as Geography students and you can’t even find your seats?’
So then we did the quiz and I freaked out when the lecturer said ‘Ten more minutes’ and I was only at question 17!
Waaa so many I don’t know how to do!!
I think I’ll leave it for today… so evil… can’t stay long on the net… So don’t miss me!
(a + b)^n = a^n + (nC1)(a^n-1)(b) + (nC2)(a^n-2)(b^2) +….b^n
Yeah!
