What.

This is on Omy.sg and it's on Shin Min Daily too:

不少O水准考生在网上申诉,2009年的O水准高级数学(A Maths)考卷,异常困难,更有学生为此号啕大哭。

考生“yunyi_karen”就说:“高级数学的第一问卷我做得很糟糕,失分很多,所以我哭得很惨。隔天我不断祈祷,所幸,我温习的所有题目都出了。我要感谢我的数学老师,在考试之前的傍晚帮我们测中考题,帮助我们。”

I know reading Chinese words isn't something most people (except Cuixiao) would do, so anyway, this is what I actually posted on the Channel Newsasia forum about the A Math paper:

'I actually did super badly for P1 but breezed through P2. I was crying hard because I lost so many marks for P1, the next day I prayed like crazy and surprisingly, all the "tough questions" I studied for came out. Thank you A Math teachers for helping us spot P2 topics the evening before.'

..."我要感谢" sounds stupid. It sounds like "I want to thank", eww.

It feels weird seeing my gross yunyi_karen username on a news website (and I'd feel weird seeing it on the newspaper). Shoot, my actual comment wasn't even in proper English because it was a casual comment! This is so weird. I mean, yeah anything on the Internet is for the world to see, but I doubt thousands of people read the Channel Newsasia forum like they read the newspapers. At least it was a Chinese newspaper though.

But it's actually quite cool, isn't it? LOL. The previous two times I had my name on the newspaper was when I had written in about JJ.
