Science practical today was neither difficult nor easy. Physics was straightforward after which I realised. They asked you to take down the measurements from the spring balance and calculate the average measurements that you had jotted down. A graph was given at the bottom of the second page. It just requires you to simply marked the points and draw the best fit line. Although it sounds easy, I think I still did make a mistake which is drawing the best fit line. I forgotten and could not recall how to draw the best fit line, hence, I just find two points that able to gives me a straight line. The following questions of physics were on calculations. Calculate the gradient, y-intercept, also, the other two questions with given formula. Lastly, they asked about errors. As for chemistry, I knew it earlier that no matter how much or how well I read the qualitative analysis, I will still screwed it up but not badly done. First question was on burning the solid T after dipping it with the wooden splint and record the observations made. I could not see the colour of the sparks clearly at first. I think probably that I did not dipped much solid T onto the moist wooden splint, so the effect is not clearly shown. I just leave it aside and proceed on the next question. From this question onwards, all is about adding chemicals. That time I was blurred with adding with all kinds of chemical that we were asked to and I think that I am a colour-idiot. I was having problems in differentiating the colours of the solutions. I spent most of the time to differentiate colours, precipitate. At the last question, they asked for conclusion from (b) to (d). It has no time left for me to think what to write for my conclusion, so I just anyhow write. Overall, I find myself done it quite smoothly.

I were told by my classmates that accounts result is out today. Therefore, I went to check. Luckily, I got a D. I thought I will failed initially and already having the thought of re-taking it, but I realised that if I were to re-take the accounts paper, it will clash onto my O's. Thus, I prayed that to get at least a pass and I will be contented. Finally, I gotten it.=)

Look at my results slip vertically, starting from the top to the bottom.

Does it formed a word "BAD"?

What does that mean?=)
