At SHSID
I'm quite well-known around campus for my participation in various activities and my logical approach to problem-solving.
Recently moved from Applied S+ to H level!
My Mathematical Mind
I enjoy logical thinking and approaching problems with mathematical reasoning.

My Thought Process
I appreciate clear, structured thinking over ambiguity. I break down complex problems into smaller, logical steps to find efficient solutions.
This approach helps me in both math and understanding English structures.
My English Journey
Moving from Applied S+ to H level, I've developed a particular perspective on English:
What I Enjoy
✓ Realistic, authentic stories
✓ Clear, straightforward language
✓ Logical arguments and reasoning
✓ Freedom of expression

Why I Enjoy These
Realistic stories help me understand real-world contexts. Clear language allows for precise communication without confusion.
Logical arguments align with my mathematical thinking style.
What Challenges Me
✗ Overly metaphorical language
✗ Long, complex sentences
✗ Abstract concepts without clear definitions

Overcoming Challenges
I'm working on understanding metaphors by finding logical patterns. For complex sentences, I break them down into smaller parts.
Abstract concepts become easier when I can relate them to concrete examples.
My Thoughts on Horror Stories (Current Unit)
While I prefer realistic stories I can appreciate horror stories that rely on:
- Logical suspense building
- Psychological elements that make sense
- Clear cause-and-effect relationships
- Plausible scenarios (even if supernatural)
The door creaked open slowly, revealing nothing but darkness within. As I stepped forward, the floorboard groaned under my weight. Then suddenly... a logical explanation emerged!
My Photography & Interests
I enjoy taking random photos of everyday scenes - capturing moments that others might overlook:
My Other Interests
Besides photography and math, I'm also interested in:
- Minecraft - I enjoy the creative and logical aspects
- Development - Even though I don't code much yet, I'm fascinated by how things work
- Green technology and sustainability
