your Lucky Streak has been ended by Maths Test(???Gold)..

My lucky streak which started on Sunday ended abruptly today at MPSH1 where i took my MCQ Maths test.

The streak started on Sunday when i visited my grand-aunt's house. After the heats of the swimming competition last week, the finals came. This time i got back to my usual standards and finished strongly on some occasions. Most swimmers who competed probably had their participation fees forfeited and added to the prize pool. Eventually after around 20 rounds of competition, i came home with a fair share of the prize pool, enough to make up for the participation fee i paid during the heats.

Yesterday, back in school after the February School Holidays, I managed to cough out a piece of physics tutorial, decent enough to be handed in. During the Logic lab, the answer to the last question in the lab manual also magically appeared at the last minute after me and ck discussing the whole day. Oh well, it was supposed to be done alone, but not that most people really care. After that Beyond-Godlike! KAI even spent his free time tutoring me for the maths test that i took today.

Today, after i had my tutorial, i went to techno to lunch with chubbs, at the same time asked him about some concepts in the maths notes. And after lunch, I still met Beyond-Godlike! KAI who went through some of the past year MCQs. Thinking i was fully equipped with the materials for the test after having 2 tutors tutoring me, i went for the test. Instantly brought back to earth when i read the questions. It was nothing like the past year question i did. All the questions have 5 choices like before, but this time, the fifth choice was "e) none of the above". Exactly what i hate in MCQ paper, cause this choice basically means it can be anything other than the other 4 choices. What a headache.. In the end i think i only manage to get exact answers to 3 of the 12 questions. Some of them had either a different sign or a slightly different value in the 4 choices, putting me in a very awkward position of choosing between e, or the closest of the 4 choices and some totally looked foreign to me. So most of the 9 answers i just "tekam".

Just hope my luck hasn't really ended totolly, and get a few more correct.
