The Feeling Of Tear Gas In My Eyes

(3)
Posted at 12:26 am by Miss Loi in Study Break

Seoul is a city of contrasts.

On one hand, you get kawaii teeny girls like Miss Loi shopping away in Myeong-dong with their favourite K-pop songs blasting away in the background, seemingly oblivious to events that had happened elsewhere.

Post-shelling Myeongdong
Peacetime shopping

On the other hand, just a couple of metro stations down the line, Miss Loi came face-to-face with battalions of riot police in full gear.

Seoul Riot Police More Seoul Riot Police

Miss Loi’s initial impression that this was some GI-Joe/Gundam-like performance for tourists was quickly dispelled when the situation became a little tense …

Standoff in Seoul

… and developed into what was a stand-off with a group of boisterous demonstrators (apparently something against South Korea’s ‘weak’ response to the North’s shelling of Yeongpyeong Island – NOT the romantic Yongpyong Ski Resort where a Harry Potter-like Bae Yong Joon met Choi Ji-woo in Winter Sonata – don’t think the North Koreans are that sacrilegious!)

Seoul Demonstrators
还我清白！还我 Yeongpyeong!

And then things got a little out of hand.

Pity the owner of that restaurant

Miss Loi thinks it’s really time for her to go home now. *rubs teary eyes*

がんばって!!!

Into The Twilight Zone

(4)
Posted at 9:10 am by Miss Loi in Study Break

In November 2010, a maths tutor vanished following the end of the GCE ‘O’ Level mathematics papers.

In the latest development, the following disturbing footages were recovered some thousands of miles from Singapore, depicting events that were seemingly in direct conflict with Little Miss Loi‘s physics beliefs … like …

Things rolling uphill on their own
… and the maths tutor getting ‘chauffeured’ up a hill by an unseen driver

No camera tricks were used in these videos :P

Sorry for your missed calls. Miss Loi will respond as soon as she finds her way out of the twilight zone :P

Gone Shopping!

Miss Loi is currently overseas rolling tin cans up slopes from 17-29 November 2010.

Please email Miss Loi during this period as her mobile phone may not be reachable at times, and she will get back to you when she’s back.

がんばって!!!

GCE O-Level 2010 Oct/Nov Biology 5094 MCQ Paper 1 Suggested Answers & Solutions & I’m Done!!!

(43)
Posted at 10:10 pm by Little Miss Loi in Little Miss Loi the Science Tutor (archived)

Every year, and since time immemorial, it seems that it’s always down to us unfortunate biology students to perform the closing ceremony of the ‘O’ Levels, while others party the weekend away chanting “Bio MCQ? WHAT Bio MCQ?????”

And each year, it’s down to the unfortunately biology tutor (i.e. me) at The Temple to work out the final set of solutions for the season :( (but least this time my brother still has his 100+ comments to go through hur hur):

2010 O-Level October/November Biology 5094 Paper 1 Suggested Solutions
2010 O-Level October/November Biology 5094 Paper 1 Suggested Solutions
– click to download (Latest version: 1.1)

In any case,

it’s over!!!

So while all of you now turn your attention to more pressing matters like choosing your prom dress etc., on behalf on all at The Temple, I hope everyone has had a great ‘A’ & ‘O’ Levels and would like to add that nothing else really matters as long as you’ve tried your best, and do take a bit of comfort from this by-now legendary quote over at the H2 Maths Paper 2 post (even though I know the ‘how many marks to get A1?’ Bell Curve fanatics will disagree with this):

… If we require you to swim 100 metres to get the A and you have shown us that you are capable, you will get it regardless of whether a big group of students have proven themselves to be able to swim around the world.

See you all again in January for Judgement Day!

Holiday Mood
Where is Miss Loi heading next?

Attention! Last but not least, as my sister is deep in the critical last stage of planning for her annual overseas trip, she asks me to inform everyone of her disappearance from 17-29 November 2010, and that the best way to contact her during this period is through email.

GCE ‘O’ Level 2010 Oct/Nov Chemistry 5072 (MCQ) Paper 1 Suggested Answers & Solutions

(30)
Posted at 2:27 am by Little Miss Loi in Little Miss Loi the Science Tutor (archived)

Hello again and unfortunately, the weekend of tuition classes has definitely caused me to keep you non-partying folks waiting for the Pure Chemistry MCQ solutions, and me staying up late to finish them:

2010 O-Level October/November Chemistry 5072 Paper 1 Suggested Solutions
2010 O-Level October/November Chemistry 5072 Paper 1 Suggested Solutions
– click to download

A much more sedate Pure Chemistry Paper 1 compared to the relative mayhem over at the Physics side, though it does have its usual tricks up its sleeve.

In any case, do leave the usual mistake/typo-spotting comment and I’ll try to attend to you once I find the time (admittedly we’re a little behind the comments due to the weekend of classes :( )

Okie good night for now!

GCE ‘A’ Level 2010 Oct/Nov H1 Maths 8864 Paper 1 Suggested Answers & Solutions

(12)
Posted at 10:44 pm by Mr Loi in Mr Loi the A Level Tutor

To chichipong, james, Nick, ohno, zack & zack, reyrtwe, and those of you who have emailed my sister, no I have not forgotten you.

It’s been a full day of classes for me so it has taken a while (with whatever time I have) to complete the 2010 set of ‘A’ Level Maths:

2010 A-Level October/November H1 Mathematics 8864 Paper 1 Suggested Solutions
2010 ‘A’ Level October/November H1 Mathematics 8864 Paper 1 Suggested Solutions
– click to download (Latest Version: 1.3)

I think I can trust the whole lot of you by now to jump in the air, perform a somersault home in on that comment button the very moment you spot a mistake, typo or a better/quicker/smarter method, and I’ll *try* my very very best to update the solutions as and when required.

Speaking of which, time to face up to the frightening list of comments over at the other blog posts … *sweats*

がんばって!!!
