School was, well, school. nothing much to report, same old same old.
like any other day just that it started two and a half hours later, like it always does on wednesdays, there was a good storm in the morning and it ended slightly earlier than usual.
and at least all the talk about grades has died down a little. thank goodness.
stayed after school to have consultation with Mr Chong, because i’ve become one of his ‘favourite’ and ‘best’ students. oh joy. we went through our paper and i realised how much i wanted to kick myself. seriously, i think for all the days we went to school for exams, i left the most important part of me at home – my little dumb brain. i’m so terribly annoyed because all, or rather most, questions that i got wrong was because...actually i don’t even know why i got it wrong! the right answer was blatantly staring at me in the face today, the paper wasnt all that tough at all, and i still haven’t the foggiest what possessed me on that day to write such UTTER CRAP. really. you can look though all my scripts and have a good laugh – would probably cheer anyone up.
but i left with slight conslation that maybe i’m not so stupid after all (still pretty stupid though hah)
and with all the talk about money buying happiness and blah blah blah, yes a hot topic thanks to the GP paper which i screwed up as well, maybe i do agree to some extent – retail therapy does lift spirits momentarily. most people, rather most girls (do guys do retail therapy too?) take to the shoe shops or clothes shops or bags and stuff shops for this expensive form of therapy but me? plonk me in a bookshop and i’m happy as anything.i can literally live in the bookshop. today i spent al my ‘therapy’ time in Times (the bookshop) and left not empty handed and quite happy. yes, i bought books to cheer me up. call me a nerd or geek or whatever (though i’m extremely far from being a nerd – nerds don’t fail do they), but i like to read. i like to read so much that it’s quite a danger to do so – once i pick up a book, i don’t put it down till the last page has been read. it isn’t a bad thing but it isn’t such a good thing either with all this work piling up around me (oops!) haha and i’ve just done myself in, i’ve got 2 unread books and a whole lot more on the wishlist. though i’m not a bookworm, i don’t/can’t read every single book on the shelf. i’m a picky reader. heh.
what am i droning on about now? i think stress has taken over my brain. hahah. and i can’t believe i’m saying this but i’m actually enjoying homework right now (i’m insane aren’t i?) i think it’s post exam stress syndrome. and honestly i hope it doesn’t wear off – it may actually help me pass promos.
promos. the thought of promos is scary, daunting. if history repeats itself, i think i can just go jump out the window. let’s hope that doesn’t happen shall we?
i should be getting to my ‘enjoyable’ homework.
toodles people.
