Most of local students should be done with their Mid-Year Examinations. Phew! It must be really stressful for you students during the last 2-3 weeks. Now it is time to relax a little bit, and celebrate any small success that comes your way.

Smile and laugh more NOW, and get ready to go into total focus revision mood during your June Holidays – which is the only time for you to revise and grasp the essential concepts in order to have a strong foundation (Workshops, Coaching, Training, Tutorial, Private Tutor, Tuition etc) to handle your Prelims and GCE O Levels Chemistry Examinations.

Let’s check out some all-time Chemistry Jokes:

Chemistry Joke 1:

During class, the chemistry professor was demonstrating the properties of various acids. “Now I’m going to drop this silver coin into this glass of acid. Will it dissolve?”

“No sir,” one student called out.

“No?” queried the professor. “Perhaps you can explain why the silver won’t dissolve in this particular acid.”

“Because if it would, you wouldn’t have dropped it in!”

PS: Indirectly linked to Metals & Reactivity Series

Chemistry Joke 2:

A female student wished to make some potassium hydroxide solution (aqueous)and decided to throw a large lump of potassium (more…)

Picture 1: Can you see the 10 faces in the tree ???

This period is the time when local students are relinquished from their Co-Curricular Activities (CCA) and Singapore Youth Festivals (SYF) 2009. It is the time where you really see students “mugging” (as what my chemistry students says) for their Mid-Year Examinations.

I was surfing my Facebook account talking to friends where i realised many students are feeling the stress and strain as they go into this mid-year examinations. You will see the subject titles from their account: “Stomache-pain with E-Maths”, “I hate O-Levels Chemistry”, “Chemistry is so boring”, “I don’t understand what my Chemistry teacher in teaching all this while”, “A-Math is killing me, i should have dropped it earlier”. “how i wish mid-year is over now”, etc.

Now, examinations is always stressful, and it is especially so when the students have not been following understanding what the school is teaching for last 14 months (for Sec 4 students). What i would suggest is to DO YOUR BEST for your Mid-Year Examinations, and when June Holidays comes, get help to revise intensively for what you don’t understand.

I am always an advocate for “Study Hard; Play Hard” as well as “Work Hard; Play Hard”. Although there is not much time for you to “play”, i would still suggest that you take little “mental-breaks” in between your revision. This is even more so, when you “Celebrate the Little Success” of finishing up a topic / chapter..go read papers/eat ice-cream, etc for 20mins, and come back to your books/notes again. This gives you more reason for you to study harder.

Below are more funny pictures given by my friend, i would like to share it with you: (more…)

“A female student wished to make some potassium hydroxide solution (aqueous)and decided to throw a large lump of potassium into a bucket of water. Her professor observed what she was about to do, out of the corner of his eye and hurried towards her, and after confirming this was what she was intending to do, asked her first to stir the water in the bucket for five minutes before adding the potassium. She was puzzled and ran after him to ask the purpose of this action.

‘It will give me time to get away’ said the professor.”

Moral of the Joke: –> bases on Metals & Reactivity Series, Potassium (K) is very reactive. In fact, it explodes with water.
