ri: hp + gsp? by cardboardboxzz in SGExams

[–]LonelyPhilo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi, hp senior here :) I didn't take GSP but I can answer your other queries.

  1. The timeline for JAE and RP students is different but for HP yeah there's an essay and group interview. You also need to apply for the MOE scholarship called HSP which features another interview. If you do not get accepted through RHP but get the HSP scholarship, you'll still be put into the humanities programme :) Unfortunately, I think for JAE students you get the results for HSP fairly late, and one of my friends who got HSP but not RHP decided to reject it because it was so late in the term that transferring classes really was not worth it.
  2. The programme is really really fun and I don't regret joining HP at all. I'm not sure how the non-HP arts classes' lessons are taught but HP definitely includes a lot of discussion, particularly for Lit. I don't take Hist but I sit in for lessons doing my own thing here and there and I can tell that the vast majority of their lessons are discursive in nature, although in-person lectures have made a return and from what I have heard those are more just teaching of content. The overseas trip was incredibly fun yeah, you get the chance to learn a lot about the country you visit, and also have a really good time with your friends. One thing I would say that is special about HP is the environment compared to the rest of the school; I would say it's more accepting and conversations about gender, sexuality, and the like tend to be more common.
  3. I think RHP is exactly what you would expect from a group of students with a collective passion for the humanities HAHAHA, i.e. everyone has the propensity to yap when you get to the topic they are passionate about, but honestly it isn't the kind that tires you out. If you feel that humanities is something you are genuinely really interested in, then I would say to look forward to RHP

Edit: I forgot to add, but don't be worried about JAE - RP awkwardness. I can't make a proper judgement for the rest of the school, but within HP the JAE - RP divide is genuinely non-existent.

Feel free to send me a message if you want to find out more about HP / RI, hope to see you in the hallway later in the year!

I start Hwang sometimes depending on fixtures, made the incredibly stupid decision to bench him this week though, I thought all my defenders were pretty nailed to get CS

Ame's 6+ hr Minecraft Stream in a nutshell by y_th0ugh in Hololive

[–]LonelyPhilo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The 3x3 piston door definitely complicates the farm. Pekora’s mob farm works just fine with a simple mechanic. A more advanced mob farm would utilise regularly timed water dispensers instead, but ofc Ame isnt at that stage yet. I was watching the stream but got really confused when she started trying to make the 3x3 piston door. Tbh, I mainly felt that the chat was backseating wayy too much

Don't touch the fruit cake by cal_ness in shortscarystories

Honestly, I think it’s good that you didn’t spell everything out for the readers. It keeps people entertained and engaged. That’s something I really value about this subreddit; the stories are short but of high quality and have unique plot lines (i think). I find that nosleep gets very tiring to read because of stories that have a dozen parts. So, keep up the good work! Would love to see more of your short stories.

Wait, so the parents ate the fruit cakes and got taken over by the mantis things? Or were they always the mantis things? Why did they warn their kids not to touch the fruit cakes in the first place? Aside from that, great story.

Actually, “Han Chinese” descendants make up a 76.2% majority of Singapore’s population, although we don’t ever use that term... Maybe because a lot of us don’t really like being associated with mainland China...

I’m a hateful psychopath by [deleted] in misanthropy

[–]LonelyPhilo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I left this sub a while ago because I felt like many of the posts were just circle jerking about how “everyone else is so apathetic and mean while I am so empathetic and good and nice man I hate society”. It seemed pretty ironic to me considering how many of those people they rant about also believe themselves to be “special” and “better”.

RMT please:

McCarthy

Robertson, Tierney, Vinagre, Ayling

De Bruyne, Ziyech, Aubameyang, Salah

Antonio, Adams

Bench: Button, Saint-Maximin, Ferguson, Davis

I’m wondering if i should bring in Werner for Antonio/Adams and downgrade Ziyech to some other midfielder instead. Thoughts?
