Why, hello there, my little abode. Let me see, the last post was... about 3 weeks ago! Man, it has been that long huh...

Anyway, all is well, I hope. But, I am preparing to crash and burn in one subject already, so means I will be sticking around this island state for a little longer than expected. In fact, almost everyone is sure that he is going to be around for a while longer, no thanks to one particular subject called Not-to-be-stated. He only came in for ONE class and threw us with the question bank a few days before our study break. Better yet, we received the new updates only a few days before the study break too. So, some of the answers in the question bank were suspect. But, we didn't know that, and we happily ticked away the wrong answers during the exam. More on that once the results come out.

Forgetting about all the crap during the 3 days of hell, we decided to crash Zouk last night. And I got myself pissed drunk. And the feeling sucked. Worse still, I had class this morning at 8AM. Overslept and woke up only at 730, still in the clothes I wore the night before. While struggling to get ready with a damn hangover, I realized that I had run out of underwear, which meant, I wore the Emperor's new underwear to school today. Yes, I had to divulge that information.

I suspect our Head of Ground School is going to be very disappointed with all our results. Okay, maybe not the others, but especially mine. Out of the 3 subjects that I scored perfect, one of them I am VERY sure I am going to flunk, another one is the stupid subject mentioned above that was taught by the Instructor-that-shall-not-be-named, and the last one, which despite being tough, is my favourite, I did quite badly. In fact, I hope to scrap through by the skin of my teeth. Sigh, yes, it was that bad.

Which makes me draw a conclusion that I just can't perform during major examinations. Look way back to university exams, and I am really convinced. Maybe my luck ran out during A-Levels, which was the last time I did better than expected. Even the previous Tech Paper, I bombed one of the easiest papers. Next was the flying check, where I ballooned while landing, which I think I did once or twice during the previous.... 30 landings or so. And now this crap.

One more paper in 2 weeks, taught by the Instructor-who-shall-not-be-named. Historically, this paper has the highest casualty rate among cadets. I wonder why... first that subject, now this. Coincidence? Think about it...
