Mug
v. The Singaporean version of cramming for exams, i.e. scanning notes into one's brain. As if it wasn't filled with enough junk already.
Only if Necessary
adv. The night before for classroom assessments; one day for lecture tests; and one day and night (per subject) for major examinations.
This author is currently on hiatus for the ignoble cause of mugging. The public is advised to remain calm, as this routine protocol has been shown to have no effect on one's violent tendencies in 96% of cases.

chinese...penmanship?!
Damn, one might have thought the xi2 zi4 and all that writing practice would already have been long over since primary school days, but no! Here i am in sec 3 and it's back to torture again...
Well, i have gotta admit that it is voluntary in a sense, considering that it's just for ACE points, which can of course can be achieved through other projects and such. But then again, this is probably the most brainless way to get 5 marks - simply copying page after page of chinese characters! I guess we're kinda desperate so we'll do anything just to get some extra marks...X_x
Right now im doing it while watching TV, heh. I guess that's another reason why we would do it - it's the simplest out of all the holiday homework. You can just pick it up anytime when you're bored and stuck at home, rather than get sian just by the thought of starting on the otehr mega-projects (HRP research paper, argh!)
As if tracing a thousand different proverbs that would really help to drastically improve our hadnwriting and vocabulary, lol. I mean, they don't even give you the meanings - though hell no, i certainly wouldn't want to copy out lengthy explanations too. And writing well would probably be the last thing in your mind when you're rushing out a 1000-word essay in one hour for an exam. =X
Oh, and congrats zack for completing 36 pages already! You've just been entitled to 5 extra ACE points! Now, who wouldn't want that :D
