My experience being part of a class play.

N.

Welcome back to another blog post folks. Exam week is upon us.

So, class play. Competition was on last Thursday, 28th February. Initially winner was 5 Balau, but who knows what will change the results. All in all, pretty fun yet stressful event for me. Evonne did get best actress so... That's something.
But Chua, why is it stressful?

I'm glad you ask, whoever you are. Or well, if you didn't ask, just enjoy the... drama. I'm sorry.
I was the main scriptwriter for 5 Belian 2k19. Volunteered in fact. It did quenched my everlasting thirst of writing a play, but, after experiencing that, I feel like it's not worth it, or maybe I'm just pathetic at writing.

There's a reason why this is stressful. It's a class drama, hence cohesion among everyone participating has to be there. Otherwise everything falls apart. And guess what, it did. We couldn't agree on a plot until 2 weeks before the drama competition, and then internal conflicts further broke the team. But, alas, our team still held up, and manage to perform.

As for my part, I wasn't satisfied by the class script after seeing what the other classes were doing. Disappointed in fact. We've could've done something much more exciting, but nonetheless majority votes out and we decided to... In a way... play safe.

To summarize, we could have done better. But a mass group project like this? I rather not since getting everyone to cooperate is a chore. It was fun though, I'll admit. But, the effort to reward ratio is simply not great.

Good luck for your exams folks. Have a nice day.
Cheers,
Chua.

Optimism / Pessimism Bias

Welcome back, friends. Exam weeks was long and harsh, but now it's over. Hooray! As for the blog posts, they're starting again and this time, oh boy, free topic for days (at least I hope so). So fasten your seat belts as we explore more random topics for no apparent reason. Today's Topic : Optimism/Pessimism Bias "Great, another bias. What's next? K-Drama bias? Anime bias? Jeez, at least talk about something positive." Well, positive things aren't always fun to write. So... cliche and boring. I rather dig into negative stuff just to find out what causes them and how we can solve them. Doesn't  that sound positive to you? Either way, let's jump into today's topic. I'm going to cover both Optimism bias and Pessimism bias in the same blog post, because they usually are found together in a statement. But before that, let's ask ourselves this common question that is used to test optimism and pessimism. Is the cup half full or h...

ICT-ton and Carnival 2018

Well it's sad to say I missed this one purely because I was busy and no other reason. So I'm going to sum the event up through friends' experiences. To start off, there was a senamrobik activity in the morning. This is quite weird as... you know... it's a carnival.... not Sports Day to be exact. Nevertheless, that happened. I'm guessing most of the participants weren't wearing the proper attire as they didn't get the memo till the last minute. Besides, there was a dunking game that was setup by the Scouts. Though I didn't go to the carnival personally, a few clips circulated around social media such as Facebook and Instagram and that's how I know Joash from 4 Balau got dunked. Mr James that was a former teacher in the school along with Pn Lau got dunked as well. Lastly, the Teen Star Talent show. Again, I didn't go to the carnival so I do not know half of what happened during the event, but the highlight of the carnival was Mr Ganapathy, th...

Isolation

S. Welcome back to another blog post folks, to preface this, this blog is going to be a long one, so um leave now if you don't like that. Also, if anyone is here just to see what topic it is for this week... uhm, don't. Because I chose to do a free topic here and did my literature essay in my literature book. So yeah, let's begin. Homo Sapiens . The only species from the genus Homo still exists. Of course, we have half-Neanderthals living around the world, but for the sake of this blog post, let's just say that we only have Homo Sapiens  around, okay? Once upon a time on Earth, there are several species from the genus Homo , 15, in fact, so far. Yet, as of today, 2019, we only know of one that successfully persisted through several wars and famine, disasters and conflicts, the Homo Sapiens . We built civilization from the ground up, stemming from rivers of the world, then conquering the world itself.  As much as I would like to talk about Homo Sapiens an...
