started the prelims today. econs paper 2. didnt take gp as it clashed with grandfather's cremation and the gp department is kind enough to allow me to skip it, giving me an 'absent with valid reason' grade. i must say the questions are tricky. elasticity had to throw in price elasticity of supply. market failure no context. national income accounting asked abt multiplier. international economics had globalisation. rog came out economic growth. gg sia. but to start with i have nothing in my head.
the wake + cremation is over. i suppose my grandfather will always live in our hearts. the whole thing is tiring from sun to wed. the sons and daughters have to pick up his ashes and bones this morning. not a pleasant experience to me. this incident really showed me how fragile life can be. a pneumonia attack and poof you are gone. also this woman appeared on tues and wed. apparently, she claimed that my grandfather gave her his life. told timo and zy abt it and they said these kind of things are hard to explain. it may really happen. to get to know more, approach me for the story.
tmr's teachers' day celebration. i shall say:
HAPPY TEACHERS' DAY TO MS MA JIALIN, MS MAGGIE QUEK, MS NAOMI ABRAHAM, MISS EWE JUN WEN, MS NG PUAY SAN not forgetting, MR DENIS LEONG, MISS SHARON CHONG, MR JEFFREY GOH, MS ANGELIN WONG, MRS AMANDA YAP, MR KRISHNAN PILLAY, MR DANNY TAN, MR PAUL NG, MR LIN DAN WEN and MS TINA TANG. the teachers who changed my life and those who gave me what i am now. thank you teachers =)
