first term exams are now offcially....over

exams are over, time for results...TT.....i'm dead.....

surprisingly, i knew how to do my add math, BUT, i was out of time. when teacher anounced there was 5 minutes left, i scanned through the paper.....OMG...there was 2 questions with 4 marks, another 2 questions with 5 marks and....1 question with 10 marks....which i haven't touch. ( cold sweat ) immediately, i did the 10 mark first, it was about drawing the graph, i only managed to finish completing the square, write the minimum point, simply sketch something and time was up.

i was quite disapointed, cause i actually knew how to do most of them, but tried to do the tougher ones which spent 15 minutes and got 0 marks for. my results came out, and...i passed, terribly, C6. sounds so pathetic, there are crazy ppl in my class how got 92, for add math. So, as i say, this class, has serious mental problems, they probably just escaped from tanjung rambutan...who knows? lol

then, there was math. which i quite enjoyed, except the significant figure part, forgotten totally. the i-dont-know-what-went-wrong-with-him teacher, marked diffrently for the same answer. some got correct and some got wrong. ermm, mister, this is a 4 marks each questions, and i am positive that my answers are correct, so please remark. Of course, it wont b fair to us whom he marked wrong when it's correct, and those who got wrong and he excidentally gave correct. But, who was willing to give up thier 4 marks and admit teacher marked wrongly by giving them correct? Basically, i cant do a thing except gatting a few other ppl's papers who had the same problem as mine to b remarked. Well, this would probably b my only A1 subject with 80 sumthin. Remember the crazy guy that got 92 marks for add math? he got 100 for math....betul-betul mental problem.

then....my english....sad....i din get A1....got A2, 70 something oni....so was my EST....also sad...ngam ngam get A1, also 70 something....the only two subjects i thought could pull me up, turn out to be no big deal....i was shocked actually, my EST got A1, cause i didn't finish on time, something happened during exam which took up half an hour of my exam time, so i blanked 3 questions, which total up to b 6 marks...

well, i dont know how did my other subjects did, but it's quite early in the mornin now, and i need to go to school in 4 hours time. So, that would b all for now.

p/s..sorry becca bout tis mornin, congrates on ur EST and BI though
..now that exams r over, the activities all rush in, it'll b busy

historical day...for the family^^

actually this happened like....3 days ago? yeah, i posted this late, as usuall =p


so, what happened?? well....a bird in my house laid two eggs, and it hatched!!!! fyi, they r wild. ( juz a little history here^^, but it wont b as boring as our normal history....this bird is actually the fifth bird building a nest in out dunno call what plant, the third bird which laid it's egg, and the FIRST bird which hatched it's eggs =D [ supposingly second, but the first was eaten by stray cats TT ] ) i'd also like to add that, the first few, were sparrows, but this is a yellow 1!!! i mean, i dont usually see yellow birds in this area, so....


anyway, the day before yesterday, i was screaming and jumping away when it hatched. ( i checked the next every hour =P ) it was....not how i thought i would look like. it didn't had any fur, not like those comic books where first born birds are all furry and kawaii, and it was also kinda black n pink.


Every half an hour after it hatched, my younger brother n i, took turns peeking at it. It didn't of course change much, but it was fun. I mean, there is a living thing in your house, and it's growing at a pace that...u can actually see the whole process.


one week later, i checked, the featheres started growing but not complete. And the eye's opened!!! it's so cute, the two pair of black eye staring at u, sometimes screaming too. but i didn't dare to go too near when the mother/father bird was around.


Another week later, there was a perfect set of feathers. the mother bird didn't come back at nights to warm the birdlings anymore, they were too big, though it still came back to feed it. the next day...which was the fifteenth day since the eggs hatched, both the birds moved out to a nearby branch to sleep. my nothing-better-to-do brother used news paper to fan it. it was shocked, and tried flewing off, but nearly got itself squashed. Carefully, i picked it up, which was stiff due to the shock, and tried flying off again. my brother thought it was really fun to have a bird in your hands, and picked the other up...he was quite rough with it and didn't get a good hold of the bird. it flew to the neighbours house. i left the other in the nest, and tried to spot the 1 in my neighbours house. i was worried...the bird cant fly properly yet, and there are a lot of stray cats in this area....that bird in my neighbours house, is definately not as smart as tweedy.

Few minutes later, we (my whole family ) decided we cant do anything about it. after going in the house, a funny thing happened...my neighbour's son, creept out, and put the birdling in our house, hoping we didn't realise. Aparentlly, my neighbours thought the birds were dirty, and had adviced us before to shoo the bird away. We, thought it was fascinating, to see something grow day after day. So, when they left the bird in our house, we were actually overjoyed. We tried putting them ( the two birds ) safely in thier nest, but they keep flying off, in the end, for the sake of thier safety, we caught them and put them in a temporary cage. ( birds always fly to our house, so we always have a place to put them in for the night if they [ other birds ] are hurt. =D ).

my bro let it off, without telling me, he said something....suddenly, something came flowing through my mind...

how the mother bird come n feed it's young every few hours, with a grasshopper, worms, dunno-what fruit or something like that. it's actually disgusting to see a worm wriggling in the mother's (or father, i dunno who) beack, but after a while thinking....i....actually felt something.....both the mother and father bird took turns coming back with something for thier young, and stared at me when i'm near.(which makes it hard for me to photograph thier growing process) i suddenly thought of how hard is it for parents with kids (expecially since all three has thier own sets of problems) to raise thier...child? anyway...the bird was a fast forward version of how kids grow up. To begin with, the mother hatched the eggs for two whole weeks, after building the nest for another week, when the birds were juz born, they couldn't see anything...they thought, everyone who came near was not gonna hurt them, and innocently opened thier beacks to all, expecting u to feed it when i'm actually photographing it ( why am i the bad guy here? ) . then when the birds opened it's eye's, it started to understand that...the world is not that perfect...even if something came near, it doesnt mean it's gonna help ( or feed, in this case.. ) u , it's probably taking advantage ( or photo's, in this case also ) of u [which was y it started screaming at me when i came near ] , the parents could only see from far and couldn't do a thing. ( they cant like, fly over n peack me, rite? ) then...it's the teenage time, the feathers all grew, and it was ready to fly. it thought it flew well, and ended up nearly squashed under my mom's car tyres. ( lucky thing i spoted it before my mom drove in the porch ) at this time, the parents cant help anymore, the birds would have to face the world...with some help ( me!! i picked it up and put it back in the nest ) but it didn't appreciate whatever help given to it, it flew away from the nest, and nearly had it's legs squashed.....( again ) finally being in a cage for a whole night, it learnt to fly...properly...the mother bird tried to peack a way for it's young to come out....

so, at times....when u thought that u could handle things on your own and u dont need ur parents anymore or something happened between u guys n u think they dont care anymore, u r actually quite wrong...

the next morning, when my bro was sure it was save, no stray cats around, my bro let it off...the mother/father bird was near...i didn't have a chance to say my last goodbye's...i was in school at that time.....i could imagine though, the beutifull picture of the mother/father bird, flying off together with it's young...well grown...into the clear blue skies, leaving it's childhood ( birdlinghood? ) memories back here, for me to remember it by.....

it's actually 25 of march when it left.

p/s- i really miss them...wish they'll come back to visit sometimes after spending 16 days here
