Yay I'm going home tomorrow! :)

Finally after counting down from H-8 all the way to H-1, I will go home tomorrow. It will be my 7th time to go home since the first time I went to Singapore. It won't be a long vacation, though. It will be less than 3 weeks and I have to study for my common test which will commence the first day school reopens. I hope I can make full use of my time in Indonesia.
Now, something more personal. I just chatted with my ex-crush on facebook today. She started the chat first in the morning asking me for help about her maths homework. I tried to help but unfortunately I couldn't (it was trigo and I admit I'm not too good at it). After scribbling on paper and tried to solve the question for half an hour, I gave up. She left without even saying thank you.
Just now I tried to start a convo with her again. I asked her a few neutral questions like why she's not going home etc. All the replies are sour and reflect no interest in the convo. I put the convo into a halt. Ah, seems that she's still bitter after what I did to her last year. I decide that I've given her enough time to be bitter and if after one year she's still bitter, I won't care already. Good bye from my life, forever. I don't think we are friends anymore. Period.

I love Singapore Mathematical Olympiad (regardless of my performance)

Today was SMO open section day. I entered the lecture theater literally unprepared, armed only with my pencil case. I didn't expect much, but in the end I really stayed the entire 2.5 hours competition. I was the only year 5 Indonesian scholar who didn't leave early.  It turned out to be quite fun! It evoked old memory of participating in similar maths competition back in Indonesia. I used to be in my old school's maths club you know!
I managed to complete 6 out of 25 questions available. I hope it could qualify for an honorable mention. That's the most I can expect for. After all, I didn't prepare anything at all for this competition. So yeah, maths is fun peeps :) I promise I will do better for my HL Maths. From now on, no more just-passing mark man!
