Manic May has come and gone.
The 2009 exam papers have been launched. Miss Loi’s annual shopping is done (and consequently missing the entire run of 书包太重). And the evil Crouching Terrorist has finally been caught, clearing the Causeway of the jams that have so often plagued Miss Loi’s JB hair salon appointments in the past year.
More importantly though, the Mids are over, and cartoon characters have begun appearing in places like United Square to bluff children, as hordes of families plan to invade our neighbouring country and cause fresh Causeway jams that will make Miss Loi late for her JB hair salon appointments again.
Many thanks for your coaching. Scored 86 marks for her maths paper!
Of the Mids, news of little ‘miracles’ concerning groups of supposedly-‘weak’ students (some previously from the Normal Stream and all that jazz etc.) have reached The Temple at this half-way point.
Hi Ms Loi, I would like to express my gratitude to you for helping her score 81 for Maths.
But Miss Loi doesn’t really see them as miracles though, as unbeknown to them, they all possess the same simple traits in their DNA, i.e. they’ve all been hardworking and willing to listen in class, and most importantly, they constantly did their correction and made sure they 100% confirm chop stamp understand their own mistakes in each problem before moving on to the next.
Math was her lowest subject in term 1, but highest in term 2. From 49 to 78!
Conversely though, the Mids have also traditionally throw up instances of bad miracles, when flocks of birds took flight from nearby trees, and glasses of water dropped to the floor from trembling hands, and the Sun got suddenly eclipsed as the world mourned in utter disbelief in dark moments when charming straight-As students found themselves impossibly plunged into unfamiliar EPIC FAIL territory.
But Miss Loi doesn’t find these cases surprising either, for unbeknown to them, their elite DNA has mostly mutated overtime to exhibit one or more of the following traits i.e.
COMPLACENT Go through motion; “OK lah! Can one lah! I understand!”; Only do ‘a bit of work’ in class; Drawing stupid pictures of Miss Loi in class (see below) LAZY Lazy to re-do questions on their own after tutor/teacher’s explanation; Never bother to practice again those questions where mistakes have been made EXCUSES “I’m very busy! I have a lot of tests! I have no time for homework!”; “My Cher never teach properly! Only rushed through that topic!” ESCAPISM Left BLANK or anyhow do those questions that are stuck in – and continue to be left BLANK till end of time; Continue to focus only in strong topics – stubborn refusal to focus on poor topics; Thought the MORE you do the BETTER grades you’ll get – but never really understood why you couldn’t do certain questions POOR FOUNDATION Whole day studying Sec Three/Four chapters – Sec One/Two topics NEGLECTED KAN CHEONG Panic attack on the day …
In any case, now that Joyous June is here to bring a false dawn of sunshine after the Mids (with the sinister O-Levels less than 5 months away (with prelims even earlier)), and that Miss Loi has finally had enough of shopping (for now), she has decided to valiantly offering her time body and soul in flexible daily slots for her 2009 June Holiday Revision Jφss Sticks Sessions from 2 to 28 June – to right all the wrongs, to kill all your “My Cher never teach properly!!!” excuses, to correct all the −5 − 5 = 0s, and to vaccinate all mutated DNAs before the dreaded LMBFH Syndrome sets in:
