Had problem solving yesterday, quite an enjoyable session even though the questions were imba hard ... The ionic eqm and electrochem questions were manageable, even though couldn't get it on the first try, but at least I could understand the answer, haha.
There was a question requiring us to draw the mass spectrum peaks for the molecular ion ClF3+, the pair tt was called (we were divided into 10 pairs to solve the problems), was weiyang and mi and Sam Lee named us "六海" ( 6C = 6 seas), -_-"". Well weiyang went to draw the peaks, then Sam Lee called a Malaysian scholar and a PRC to show their answers.
After they were done, Sam Lee drew a Singaporean flag over weiyang's answer and asked the Malaysian scholar to do the same. The Malaysian scholar paused for a while, then he turned back to his friend and asked, "How to draw ar?" ZOMG, haha ... The China flag was a bit oversized though ...
Haizz, after the laughs and reflecting upon what happened, maybe it was not really a nice thing to do, sort of divides the whole chem o team. In my opinion, it affects the Singaporeans more since they are sort of overshadowed by the PRCs and Malaysians ... There is another sort of division, juz found out(though I would rather not have) that weiyang, jian ting and mi are the only non-STP people in the team =(. The STP people are having an easier time since they have already learned extra stuff during their normal cirriculum, that means we have to work extra hard to catch up to them, HAIZZZZ.
Bought 17 new chess boards for the club, yay, finally have good chess boards and pieces, this will come in handy when we organise next yr's hc cup =) . Going for the competition on the 18th after all, even though SchO theory paper is on the 19th, haizz but my coach said that I will juz play one round in the morning then I can go study for next day's theory paper, haizz, it's pointless guess I won't really have the mood to play anyway. If I lose it then it will be my first competition with an all-lose record, haha ....
Will be glad once all these are over ... I want my life back!!
