Diary Entry 5 - 24 June 2017

Oh yes, tomorrow is Hari Raya... Time really flies I guess. Today seems like I got cursed. When I was returning home in the afternoon, I met with a road accident (I'm fine, that's why I can still sit here and type this entry). And after that, when I got home, I decided to go down to the car park to fly my RC trainer aircraft. I have been flying since I was 9 and 2 years ago I stopped flying due to an important exam  (PSLE). It was only these few months that I went back to flying R/C planes again.

Anyways, I built myself a trainer at the start of this month and had flown it for 5 flights. On the previous flight, the motor fell off mid-flight but I was able to glide it to land.

Today, there were a few people looking at me fly and am I nervous? Hmm not really. This was flight 5 and the last one. I did a hand launch, and completed 2 circuits around the open-air car park. After that, the battery shifted back suddenly which caused the plane to pitch up very hard. It stalled and fell 5 storeys down. When I recovered it, it was a wreck( Will post a photo)

But let's not let setbacks push me down. I still have another aircraft that has been sitting around since the day I stopped flying 2 years ago. The motor might not be powerful enough, but I'll still try tomorrow.

That's all for today, see y'all tomorrow!

Diary Entry X - 12 October 2017

Who's gonna get the iPhone X? Apparently, it's not pronounced as 'X' but 'ten"... I'll just call it an Apple sandwiched between 2 pieces of glass xD. Currently: Anyways, exams are practically over as i'm just left with my Mother Tongue Listening Paper 3 (Good Luck to Biology students). I don't think there's a way to study for it as you'll not know what's gonna come out? You're just gonna listen to a boring 45 minute CD track playing, and listen really carefully even though it's boring :). It's common for people to fall asleep during it. 2 weeks of hell: No, not the 2 weeks of EXAM HELLL, no. Exams were hell and if you think it's not enough, take Exams+injured left leg and you'll understand my pain. So... The first day of exams (Thurs 5 Oct), I woke up and as soon as my left foot touched the ground, pain just surged... So, I did my morning routine while limping and limped all the way till today. Usually the pai...

I know, I know... I disappeared for almost a month without posting anything. There is just way too many things to do in school that has taken my free time away. Time really flies faster that the speed of light, we are already at Week 5 since the school started. Wow! I have another 2 weeks to prepare for investiture, and 2 weeks after that it would be teacher's day... That kind of tight schedule is inevitable.

Time to go to bed, there are 3 tests tomorrow. Gud nite.

Daily Entry 4 - 23 June 2017

Well, today was pretty plain u til the evening when I went for my tuition. We had a new tutor, and he was very upbeat and engaging. Since it's still holiday, no one would expect today to be the first lesson unless they've read the receipt and yep... I was the only student in the class. And by the time the others came, I was already about to leave. Talk about a wasted trip man... So yes, I literally went home laughing like how I was the only one and if I wasn't there the teacher would have had to go home. Gotta wake up early tomorrow, good night world!
