Yesterday was the Mid-Autumn Festival (also known as Mooncake Festival), and our Queens condo had a mini celebration for the residents, with games and food (mooncakes, tea, pomelo, crackers etc.). There were Pomelo Peeling Competition, National Constume Competition and Lantern Making Competition. After the various competitions, there were one Indian dance by mother & daughter pair, and four Japanese dance performances by young Japanese boys and girls, as there are many Japanese families (>100?) staying in our Condo.
My sister won the first prize in the Lantern Making Competition, and her team (comprising my two sisters and two other friends) also won the 2nd prize in the Pomelo Peeling Competition. They received some Popular book vouchers (worth $40 in total).

Amazing Sand Art
Kseniya Simonova is a Ukrainian artist who won the Ukraine's version of "America's Got Talent", in June 2009. Her "sand painting" illustrates Germany's invasion and occupation of Ukraine during WWII. As the adage goes, "a picture is worth a thousand words". Her drawing was so incredible and touching that you can see the audience and the judge tearing. You can follow the story line even if you don't understand the song lyrics and words. What an amazing and talented artist!!

Handwriting Analysis
Just for fun, you can get your personality profile based on analysis of your handwriting, from http://www.handwritingwizard.com/
Jeck uses judgment to make decisions. He is ruled by his head, not his heart. He is a cool, collected person who is usually unexpressive emotionally. Some may see him as unemotional. He does have emotions but has no need to express them. He is withdrawn into himself and enjoys being alone.
The circumstances when Jeck does express emotions include: extreme anger, extreme passion, and tremendous stress. If someone gets him mad enough to tell him off, he will not be sorry about it later. He puts a mark in his mind when someone angers him. He keeps track of these marks and when he hits that last mark he will let them know they have gone too far. He is ruled somewhat by self-interest. All his conclusions are made without outside emotional influence. He is very level-headed and will remain calm in an emergency situation. In a situation where other people might get hysterical, he has poise.
Jeck will work more efficiently if given space and time to be alone. He would rather not be surrounded by people constantly. In a relationship, he will show his love by the things he does rather than by the things he says. Jeck is not subject to emotional appeals. If someone is selling a product to him, they will need to present only the facts. They should present them from a standpoint of his sound judgment. He will not be taken in by an emotional story about someone else. He will meet emergencies without getting hysterical and he will always ask "Is this best for me?"
People that write their letters in an average height and average size are moderate in their ability to interact socially. According to the data input, Jeck doesn't write too large or too small, indicating a balanced ability to be social and interact with others.
Jeck will be candid and direct when expressing his opinion. He will tell them what he thinks if they ask for it, whether they like it or not. So, if they don't really want his opinion, don't ask for it!
In reference to Jeck's mental abilities, he has a very investigating and creating mind. He investigates projects rapidly because he is curious about many things. He gets involved in many projects that seem good at the beginning, but he soon must slow down and look at all the angles. He probably gets too many things going at once. When Jeck slows down, then he becomes more creative than before. Since it takes time to be creative, he must slow down to do it. He then decides what projects he has time to finish. Thus he finishes at a slower pace than when he started the project.
He has the best of two kinds of minds. One is the quick investigating mind. The other is the creative mind. His mind thinks quick and rapidly in the investigative mode. He can learn quicker, investigate more, and think faster. Jeck can then switch into his low gear. When he is in the slower mode, he can be creative, remember longer and stack facts in a logical manner. He is more logical this way and can climb mental mountains with a much better grip.
Jeck is a practical person whose goals are planned, practical, and down to earth. This is typical of people with normal healthy self-esteem. He needs to visualize the end of a project before he starts. he finds joy in anticipation and planning. Notice that I said he plans everything he is going to do, that doesn't necessarily mean things go as planned. Jeck basically feels good about himself. He has a positive self-esteem which contributes to his success. He feels he has the ability to achieve anything he sets his mind to. However, he sets his goals using practicality-- not too "out of reach". He has enough self-confidence to leave a bad situation, yet, he will not take great risks, as they relate to his goals. A good esteem is one key to a happy life. Although there is room for improvement in the confidence catagery, his self-perception is better than average.
Jeck is very self-sufficient. He is trying not to need anyone. He is capable of making it on his own. He probably wants and enjoys people, but he doesn't "need" them. He can be a loner.

JUMP!
This afternoon my family went to watch this korean comic martial arts performance at the Esplanade Theatre. The ticket costs $38 per person, but it might not be worth its value since we were late by half an hour. We took a bus there, halfway through the journey my sisters needed to visit the toilet. So we alighted at suntec city bus-stop. There was a queue at the toilet and as there was a Comex 2009 computer exhibition/PC show going on, we had to push our way through the throng of visitors. After they were out, we hurried towards Marina Square. Being unfamiliar with the place, we asked for directions many times, wasted alot of time and waited very long for my very, extremely, slow, tortoiselike, draggy, dilly-dally father who sauntered behind us. As we were scurrying for the Theatre, my sister fell and bruised her leg. I was a little envious of her, as she got a free sweet from the Esplanade lady who tended to her abrasion.
JUMP tells the story of a Korean family well-versed in martial arts, including a crotchety grandfather. Some parts are hilarious, esp. the scene with two burglars break into their house. There are many showdowns on martial arts, acrobatic and gymnastic moves, as well as comic acting.

Small (pieces) Puzzles
Holidays time = puzzle time again. My mother has just bought a new 1000-pc puzzle from Takashimaya. I took a few days (2-3 hours a day) to fix it. On the box it says 'world's smallest 1000-pc jigsaw puzzle'. The other postcard-size puzzle is an old 204-pc puzzle, which I have fixed many times already. You can see a actual size postcard below the box. I have placed one 5-cent coin and one 10-cent coin next to the single pieces, so that you can have a feel of the size of the pieces.

Busy ...
Sorry I was too busy to blog, as I have a few tests last week. I was also catching up on a few assignments which were not done due to the IMO training and competition.
I think CS2201 Visual Basic .Net Programming is taking up the most of my time now (it's still my favourite subject), as there is a programming assignment almost every week or alternate week, and we also have a project to do. I have already submitted my proposal - it's an educational mathematical game where a climber must ascend a mountain amidst the rising water level (caused by global warming); he must race against the rising water level by answering simple arithmetic questions correctly (difficulty level increases as he climbs higher) otherwise he will be drowned once the water level reaches above his head.

Plants vs Zombies Music Video
This is a very interesting music video. My sisters like it but my friend Kendrick doesn't. You must complete the whole game to hear this video, which is also the credits. The song itself is enchanting and funny. Also, try clicking the help button and see what it says.
If you haven't completed the game yet, you may not fully appreciate the song. When you are really desperate to complete the game quickly, the best way is probably using cheat engine, which is what I did.

SMO 2009 Prelim Results
The SMO 2009 preliminary results (no ranking for top placings) were out a few days ago. I think this year, NUS High did quite well overall. For Individual top 10 rankings, NUS High took 4 places in Junior, 3 places in Senior and 3 places in Open categories. NUS High also took top 3 places in all categories' team award.
My guess for top 3 in Team awards:
Junior: 1st - NUS High, 2nd - HCI, 3rd - RI
Senior: 1st - RI, 2nd - RGS, 3rd - NUS High & NYGH
Open: 1st RI & HCI, 3rd - NUS High
I massively failed Round 1 in Junior. It's worse than what I expected!
This year's cut-off for Junior Round 2 is 7 (ridiculously low, which means one will get a Silver with just 7 marks, last year's cut-off was 14), and cut-off for Gold award is 12 (even more ridiculously low, last year it was 23!).
update: someone commented in 'Comments' that the cut-off for Junior Round 2 is 9, and 7 will still get a Silver. But I have just checked, the cut-off should be 8 (100% sure). Sorry for the mistake above.

Plants vs Zombies
I am now playing this new game. You are a house owner and you must plant zombie-zapping plants such as peashooters, wall-nuts, cherry bombs and more to defend against many types of zombies (including a super big giant that smashes everything in 1 hit) before they can reach your front door.
Each zombie has its own special skills, like the super big giant that can smash everything in 1 hit, so you’ll need to think fast and plant faster to combat them all, like putting a doom shroom to kill an imp. Below are some screenshots. Just play it. It is fun.

IMO 2009
Just came back from Germany. The Singapore team won 2 Silver medals, 3 Bronze medals and 1 Honourable Mention. We are ranked 30 out of 104 countries. The top 5 countries are: China, Japan, Russia, South Korea and North Korea.
At Changi Airport Terminal 3, 12 July, leaving for Germany. 11 of us were on the same plane (6 participants, 1 deputy leader - Mr Chia, 4 observers - Jun Wei, Jiawei, Mr Teo, Mdm Teo). Dr Wong, Dr Tay and Dr Hang left a few days earlier.
On the opening day. Ryan is holding Simon, our mascot.
Excursion at Breman.
Excusion again. Took photo with one of the speakers and our tour guide.Ok, things that I can remember:
a) The food there tasted horrible. Every grain of rice there was very big and does not stick, so the rice kept falling off my plate.
b) Everything there costs more than 2 times the price in Singapore, especially in the airport where a bottle of mineral water costs 3 euros (S$6).
c) At 10pm in Germany, it’s as bright as 6pm in Singapore. At 3am in Germany, it’s as bright as 6.30am in Singapore.
d) I heard the China team completed the first day very quickly, and were writing more solutions to the same questions to hope for special prize.
e) We went to a climate house, where one of the rooms was a very dark rainforest. Ivan got lost there. Later he saw us at another room but when he went there, we were gone. Since he was far behind time, he ate at the café and was more behind time. Later we made an announcement: “Ivan, please come to the exit.” Then he met us there.
f) “fer-sa-gern” (don’t know how to spell or pronounce) means fail.
g) Germany does not sell chicken rice.
h) Ryan bought a very small soft red bolster for 10 euro, I think.
i) They played werewolf with the Philippines, while I was asleep.
j) We played werewolf with the China team.
k) Seashores are windy, even the birds are blown away by the wind.
l) The red light is a lot bigger than the green light (in Germany’s traffic lights).

The exam hall. There was a total of 565 participants in the hall.

SMO 2009 (Open) Special Round
The SMO (Open) special round was held at NUS LT27, and it started at 9.06 am. There were 5 questions. Q1 was geometry, which for the first time, I whacked using trigo instead of using normal synthetic proof; Q2 was a very easy number theory qn; Q3 was quite difficult algebra, Q4 was a very difficult inequality qn and Q5 was a not-so-difficult number theory qn.
It took me about 4.499999 hours to solve Q1, Q2, Q3 and Q5. I tried Q4 but since it was inequality, and I HATE inequality, I did not spend much time to work on the question, because I simply could not remember all theorems on inequalities, such as AM-GM, Power mean, Cauchy Schwartz, Jensen's, and alot of other random theorems discovered by some long-name people.
The competition ended at 1.36 pm.
My sister is flying to South Africa tonight (2 am) with her three RGS friends and teacher. She is taking part in the World Youth Mathematics Inter-City Competition held at Durban. RI also sends a team there.

Modules this Semester
This semester, my most-like to least-like modules are:
1. CS2201 Visual Basic .NET Programming. Initially I was on waiting list for this elective. Luckily they open a 2nd class due to its popularity, I am so very lucky as programming is my favourite! But I will be missing 4 weeks of this module :-(
2. MA4109 Calculus I. I heard that this module is comparable to calculus courses at college and university level. Guess it would be tough.
3. MA4401 Polar Coordinates, Parametric and Vector Functions. This is an honours module.
4. CM2104 Foundation Chemistry 2
5. PC2110 Foundational Physics II. This semester, we should be learning electric & magnetic forces and simple circuit knowledge.
6. EL2105 Language for Literary and Functional Purpose
7. CL2102 Chinese 2B
8. HY2101 Southeast Asia – From Colony to Nation (Selected Countries)
9. PE. I am lucky that I can skip this for 4 weeks :-)
Good thing about this Semester is, there is no Biology module. Also, I will just be sitting in for History - no projects, tests and exams. That means, all my modules are mostly subjects that do not need memorising/studying. Yay!
1. CS2201 Visual Basic .NET Programming. Initially I was on waiting list for this elective. Luckily they open a 2nd class due to its popularity, I am so very lucky as programming is my favourite! But I will be missing 4 weeks of this module :-(
2. MA4109 Calculus I. I heard that this module is comparable to calculus courses at college and university level. Guess it would be tough.
3. MA4401 Polar Coordinates, Parametric and Vector Functions. This is an honours module.
4. CM2104 Foundation Chemistry 2
5. PC2110 Foundational Physics II. This semester, we should be learning electric & magnetic forces and simple circuit knowledge.
6. EL2105 Language for Literary and Functional Purpose
7. CL2102 Chinese 2B
8. HY2101 Southeast Asia – From Colony to Nation (Selected Countries)
