finally i think i got back my blogging spirit. suppose to blog yesterday about the subject specialization thing, and today was quite fun, but i think ill put that for later.
anyway, i think i decided: math and chem major, physics honors. looks slack rite? XD. i kind of feel that chem honors i shud be able to handle it, but after what yong jen said in the MRT today, i think ill stick to major. "why honor chem if u hate it now?" anyway he is right, what is significant is my CAP. i can handle chem but i hate it, like today's chem test make me realise how screwed up my chem is. organic chem shud be more interesting though, even though its supposely more work. remember when ms kong force us draw all the s, p and d orbitals. it was long work, but somehow it seems straightforward. i think ill prefer sticking to straitforward chem.
then there is bio and econs. as i said many times, i kind of love evo bio. to me it seems more logical than math proof and all that nonsense. its interesting too, like its a simple explanation to inheritance and all that. however, bio wont be useful to me. econs also. i kind of feel that when we all grow older, we'll naturally learn about the economics of this country. i think its the sort where everyone eventually experiences and learns about.
anyway, physics im quite sure about it. its quite interesting and rather in-depth, and i have all the time in the world due to my slack timetable so i shud be able to handle it. its kind of interesting actually. have u ever wondered how a telephone transmit ur voice, or how an air con manages to cool the room down? i can always check the internet right here right now and find out all about it. but i got this gut feeling that eventually i will learn about it, and then appreciate it. like the electric motor thing. keep changing direction of current and the fan will continue spinning its blades in one direction. maybe thats why stuff like that use alternate current (AC) electricity. i dint check that out btw. i just sort of theorised it.
i kind of go back to why i wanted to learn science in the first place. its the kind of interesting and entertaining and intriguing thing that people feel when they learn about how something works. something so common such as a telephone for example. we use it everyday, but only a few people know the mechanism behind it. i think the interest to know things is why most people want to be scientists in the first place. i admire ppl like mechanics and technicians. mechanics may not have recieved a very good education, yet somehow they know how to fix things. its kind of amazing how they fix cars, lamps, those kind of things most of us dont actually know how to do.
i kind of decided to keep things simple. one step at a time. i could probably start of as something simple, like electronics. maybe simple household electronics, quality checking and then maybe move on to more advanced electronics. lets face it, i dont think im going to be some bright scientist in the future who contributes very largely to society or something. of course i want to be, but i like things simple. that doesnt mean i got no dreams. i think i would feel a lot of achievement if lets say while working with electronics, i get the chance to make a simple innovative household electronic that would make things more convenient and all that, and then all the households think its good and decide to use it. something like vacuum cleaner. nowadays, almost everyone uses vacuum cleaner to clean their house. its simple, but the physics behind it seems interesting to me.
anyway, i just fixed my first light today :D. i know, i almost never do housework. its really simple, just replacing a part, but ive never actually dismantled that fluorescent circular tube thing and there were wires and all that. very simple de, but somehow i felt happy doing it. maybe if i work in electronics in the future, ill enjoy it very much. sounds like low pay, but im sure at the top is a high paying job and quite an important role, as in useful to common people and all that. somehow thats also contributing to society, making things more convenient.
anyway, im a rather slackerish person now. but thats ok, cos i think next year, i might enjoy what i study, instead of procrastinating in random stuff like geog that i dont ever feel like doing. i know id never get work done today, to be honest. chem prac i shud be able to complete today, then maybe math journal, but thats just a chance. maybe just slowly finish them up. the rest im screwed., but i can get help from 07 people. some subjects they are faster and all that. and they are more willing to help. that was what i was supposedly going to post today, about how i dont really belong in my class. i think many people might agree with that. ill save that for next time. anyway, homework is just work, and school isnt just about work.
tomorrow there is pizza party :DD. i mean, the seniors are leaving and all, and its kind of a waste seeing all the pro ppl, as in really good people, slowly leaving this sch and leaving us to lead the cca. i mean, i dont feel like we will be able to keep the cca good in photography. maybe we will learn on the way. somehow the juniors dont seem very serious in the cca, except maybe a few of them. but who knows? maybe someday we'll all be good and then pass it on to the juniors. hope the cca maintains good quality, cos i like media alot.
anyway time to just rip off chem prac and math journal from other ppl. on last note, its friday tmr! XD
