the evening news

Listening to: Rooster's Staring At The Sun

please pay heed to these announcements:

1. nyjc prelim 2002 paper is quite a monster of a paper. many of the questions test on figurative language and metaphorical stuff.. if you find it intimidating, you aren't alone. here are the answers, so you can just take a look at how such qns can be answered. if you don't have the time to do the papers posted online, do at least look at the qns and the answers!

2. please check out litespeed for your seating arrangements for tuesday. do so before you go to the venue so that you wouldn't be caught off-guard yah?

3. no lecture on Friday for s1e and s3a
as mentioned, i'm supposed to have a lesson to make up for the loss of a lecture
tentatively, i intend to meet these two classes at 1010. venue should be ava rm (let me try and book the venue first)

wat's going on? will do paper 1 stuff. likely to be revision..plus perhaps analysis of a few qns.. if you have that long list of essay qns (compiled from all prelim papers last yr) and have an essay qn you'd like me to talk abt, just let me know either personally or online. if you've got qns about the papers, please come armed with these qns

a1b - you're more than welcome to attend this extra freebie if you'd like. we'll just have a huge combined lecture

4. updated consultation schedule
three more days to this week.. schedule already rather packed. apologise for loss of wed and fri afternoons (on course on these afternoons). apologise for having to shorten these consultations into half-hour slots.. cos i'm trying to see as many people as possible! :)

study leave on monday IS confirmed. so if you want, you can come by on monday if you really want to :) let me know though..don't turn up and spring a surprise on me k?
