Meh I just went for tuition at Han Language in Kovan, and it was SO SIAN.
Last term I had Chinese tuition with Vic at Anchorvale CC, but they cancelled the class because they didn't have enough students. Being in the same class as Vic was pretty stressful (because she always finishes her homework etc and I look like a terrible student next to her), but at least class discussions were interesting.
There're supposed to be 4 people (including me) in my new class. 2 didn't come today. The other one sat there and didn't utter a single word throughout the entire lesson except when the teacher asked her a question.
I kept forgetting she existed and started my own conversation with the teacher, because listening to the teacher lecture would be terribly boring. So we ended up discussing the government's motives for getting the Genting group to build Sentosa's IR. In Mandarin, which made for a rather interesting discussion (because of my lack of vocabulary, so I had to keep substituting phrases).
(Actually also quite fun la, but I felt like I was the only one in class.)
[edit] I just realised that I didn't dare to post my NAPFA results last year for fear of being laughed at! So for comparison this time next year:
IPU - 11, C. (Yeah it sucked, but I always do just enough to get a C every year and then drop.)
SBJ - 178cm, B. (Had to retest for this one. I AM NOT HAPPY WITH MYSELF.)
2.4km run - 14.02 min, B. (Commented already. Eh but I just realised that even if I were a guy my age I'd still have passed! Awesome!)
Sit and Reach - 48cm, A
Situps - 31, A (haha almost everyone in my group did exactly 31 and stopped)
Shuttle Run - 11.0s, A (sigh last year I got 10.9! SO ANNOYING LA)
So that's...CBBAAA. Meh. Not great, but whatever.
At least it's a Gold :D Wish I were still fifteen, though. Sigh.
