   Life of preparing for exams is meaningless. I can stand it no longer. Who cares if you done well in the exams? Can you obtain knowledge by studying over again and again through what you have learnt before? No! Does it mean anything if you can solve the not-so-hard but out-of-the-way math problem but could not prove even one simple formula? No! And, most of all, do you appreciate the knowledge that occupies all your memory? No! Seven days till public exams, I have sacrificed the whole winter vacation because of studying. Now pressure and dullness have pushed me to the edge. I tried to be happy, to act like I am enjoying the days and nights spent in books, ignoring the deteriorating of vision. Tired? Have a glass of water, and the work continues. This is the price you have to pay in terms of achieving the goal, said the teachers. They blame you for skipping the compulsory classes in winter vacation to find a quiet corner to concentrate. Because the good students would have finished reviewing by this time, and those who have not are hopeless. Said the physics teacher. When I try to discover the beauty of science, there is 10 km of exam papers to go through. What is the matter with these people? How can the whole society care nothing but grades?

  I dream of one day no students would suffer from this... I truely detest this.

   Yay! Once in a year, here comes Chinese New Year. This is my first time spending the new years' eve in Kaohsiung. The sound of firecracker continues for more than 30 minutes when it just passed midnight. I could smell the powder in the air. That's what I call a HOLIDAY. Endless callings from family and friends in the morning, and all those sweets, food. Argh, so nice! And the best of all: red envelopes containing money. Well, what can I expect more from a birthday? Hehe. No body gets paid on their birthday but just me. *wink* That's the advantage of born on Chinese New Year.

   Now I am pretty sure my craziness is inherited from my parents, both of them. Why? They have bought a 4.5kg chocolate bar for my grandpa just because they thought IT IS GOING TO BE FUN. *cough cough* I swear I did not encourage them to do so. I really did not. Must be funny to see my grandpa's face when the chocolate arrived at his door. Haha.

   Two more days and winter vacation! Six exams finished, two left. And there is only one word could decribe my current status: exhausted. I kind of like Chemistry this semester, actually. Argh, am I hypnotized by my former Chemistry teacher?! Everything will just work fine as long as I do not need to memorize the period table from the first element to the last. However, Biology and Physics reminds on the top of my favorites. Don't know why, I am simply fascinated by the beauty of it. Why isn't there such major like "Physics Biology" in university? I would be the first to apply. Haha. Just some thoughts. I am off to bed.

   One week till semester finals. My father strongly suggest me stay at school studying until 9:30 PM everyday this week, since he will have to work on his report. What kind of reason is this?! Sigh. Not that I do not want to stay at school, but I prefer eat at home. They do not sell edible food at school. That is true. How can the restuarants stay in business for so long is the biggest mystery on earth. However, I do not want to catch a bus while carrying my heavy textbooks, guess I will have to obey. Oh well.

   I have decided to keep only the blog. 'Cause that is all that I could. Picking up something that has been thrown away for so long is hard. However, I need to maintain my memory of English and the internet, to remind myself of my existence. 2004 eventually arrived. It is going to have a special start, with two biggest events of my life: public exams and IBO - International Biology Olympiad - trial. Both comes only once in a lifetime, I must not miss either of them. Thus, I would put my efforts mainly on public exams and IBO from now on. This site will remain online of course, but nothing more than a blog - well, it was never more than a blog anyway. *shrug*

   You might wonder where I have been last year. To tell the truth, I was here. Only that I wasted most of the time wondering aimlessly, ignoring anything meaningful. Kind of silly. Off internet, I stuck on Biology. Chiefly breeding caterpillars and studying the first grade university curriculum. Was fun.

   Sigh, time to leave now. Will update this soon.
