Term 2 Reflections

Term 2 was the most enjoyable but confusing term of the year for me!

I learnt a lot including my favourite segments Acids and Bases, ending chemistry for the year. We then touched on physics,

1) Mirrors
2) reflection and refraction
3) Light

This was the most confusing chapter of the year for me. Physics is a whole lot different from biology and chemistry which requires more concept and application. This really proves to be a big feat for me as i did not go through term 2 that smoothly, facing ups and downs, however, this just makes science more interesting! i faced a lot of troubles and many problems. Luckily, i had friends, teachers and my family members there for me to clarify my doubts and help me with my problems.

During the examination period, i was plagued with the national competitions, one after the other, giving me no time to concentrate and brush up on my sciences which i proved to be rather poor at it then, then i was thinking to myself that if i really did flunk my test, my science examination dream would be flushed away! Therefore, i knew that time management was the key to my term 2 results! My training was 6 days a week, some including morning training! I studied before training everyday to make use well of that time and when i reach home, i will complete my homework. I was indeed worried but had faith that i would do well.

The day came, the test results, the teacher announced the results and to my utmost surprise and joy, i got 3rd in class! The feeling was really so great! I managed to survive through it and even got better results than others who did not have so much training load. It was another high A1, as if a magnet, drawing the exemption of the End-Of-Year examinations closer and closer!
