Miss Lina: That's the danger of using so many primes, old people like me cannot see~ f'''(x)

Random person: So this friday get A lvl results, they must pray to every god in the world. =P


183

I love Vectors: After you see a student do really wrong ah, you cannot say 'jialat' loudly. That will make the student disappointed.

(RT JJ recalled his army life) "Eh!? I thought you going to give me MP's letter for you to defer!?" XD

[RT Melvin singing Taylor Swift songs, in a seriously cui way. "I knew you were ma fan when you walked in. MA FAN. MA FAN."]

(In the hall, sitting at the backseat)
Some Econs teacher: You're an ex student right???
Jeff: Yea. o.o
Teacher: Then how come you're not in front?
Jeff: Because I was a PJ student 3 years ago?
Teacher: Oh... o.o

(In the hall, taking A lvl results)
Miss Leong: So does this bring back memories?
Jeff: Yea, surprising subjects getting surprising results.
O_o o_O <- Yea, that kind of expression.

S03 student: So you finished uni already?

Jeff: Make it fast!
Student 2: Er... Teacher
Jeff: Go toilet ah?
Student 2: No, er.. I think I left my phone in the classroom...
(You guys are awesome sia)

[Something about point of inflexion]
Miss Lina: So d2y/dx2 = 0, so that means what, that is a point of inflexion ah??? (In a tone that suggests that it is confirm not a point of inflexion)
Students: Yes...
Miss Lina: You all sure or not?!
Students: YES~!!!! Apparently the whole LT4 students replied. o.o
Miss Lina: -_-!!! You all take out your GC and plot the graph!

(Sia la! Of all times, everybody replied with a wrong answer!)

[Something about using your GC to check answers VS using GC]
Miss Lina: So ah, you don't be a dumb dumb and write there, "Hey look I'm using my GC" for a no-GC allowed question!

Jeff: So this 3-marks question, I cannot use 1 line to solve ah, because I got the answer.
I love Vectors: Can is can la, but it is better for students to use the '1-method-kill-all', otherwise they will be confused.
(Walao, long and spicy siol)

Student: How come (d2y/dx2)(d3y/dx3) is not equals to (dy5)(dx5). I remember seeing something like this in the lecture notes...
Jeff: O_O

[RT Isabella, Hisham, JJ and me went out to buy Mac, and ate outside L3 staff room]
Hisham: Here got 5 meals right... How come only got 4 packets of chilli sauce!?
(In the end, they all shared chilli. I actually wanted to go buy salad then at least can take a bit of chilli for them, but aiya lazy, and they also sorta finished their meals)

Jeff: Er...
Random teacher: It's hot right? Wa I think the air-con spoil...
Jeff: O_O No it's not...

Student: The lecture notes very random, they add in a lot of random things!
Jeff: Yea, but without those random things, you cannot solve the question.
Student: So what can I add in?
Jeff: You can add in whatever you want! =D
FEM: I can give you anything you want, woah oh.

[During lunch]

Miss Lina: For a proving question, you all cannot work in both directions, and therefore you can only work in One Direction!
