had one of the most hectic days today in school. despite it ending early, it drained much of my brain juice!
first up was bio test in the morning. my bio has never been good, so.. i'm prepared to fail. XD bio tutor said it was a straightforward test and i kinda agreed, and then he said that if we fail it's either 1. we didn't study at all
or 2. we don't understand english.
i don't know which category i fall into. certain stuff can stay in my brain, but the others can't. BAHH. trouble for bio is brewing.
next up, maths lecture. not that juice draining, all that our lecturers make us do for every subject is copy and copy and copy. there's no brainwork at all, makes me pissed off 'cos the first time we ever see a question and do it is in the tutorial. or maybe all lecture-tutorial systems are like that. whoops. ><
aussie maths comp. i can genuinely say i've tried my best for this, considering the fact i couldn't catch anything during training and didn't touch the practices at all. it doesn't really matter (to me anyway) if i come back with a distinction, but i'm glad i concentrated and found ways to solve some of the questions. it was pretty funny when my brain went PING PANG!
break then bio lec. totally not listening (yes, my bio is so bad yet i'm not listening) 'cos i was trying to study for my chem test, which i didn't study for! i was rushing eom last night. XD
chinese - no comments.
then chem test! whilst everyone was happily adjusting their u-tubes, i was attacking the paper. for the first time, i left a 7 mark half blank. so good right. how smart of me. i forgot to do, then by the time i realized i totally lost it and didn't know how to do. on hindsight, i don't know how to do it anyway. whoops, sorry kbong!

i just checked the england blog, and it says there that
MY RESULTS WILL BE MONITORED FROM NOW TILL 'A' LEVELS!
just to make sure my trip there is justified.
how fun.
i do hope i'll have fun there, studying new stuff and trying to catch up on the old.
talked to the bee, my headache disappeared! heheh. but i didn't touch schoolwork ):
and when i think about it, i'm totally NOT IN TOUCH with tkgs news! DAMNIT! someone update me on what's happening around there, now! NOW!!
oh yea, and there's cchs(m) installation on friday. debating to go or not. i haven't done cip for ages! oh the fun of doing too many weird things in school.
on another note, i've got a whole cluster of pimples somewhere near my eyebrow and i've got class phototaking tmr. horror of horrors. GO AWAY PIMPLES!
cannot forget. :)

i suddenly do not feel ready.
even though i'm almost packed.
even though i'm psychologically ready to walk the 10k with my bag.
even though i've settle most of my school stuff, excluding the emails.
even though i want a break from the squabbling.
even though i'm physically prepped up to go.
i suddenly just don't want to leave.
really don't feel ready. not spiritually prepared. not ready to meet the world out there.

alfresco wasn't as bad as i expected it to be. interactors could have been a lot more proactive and enthusiastic though, and it was quite surprising that the leader left before everyone else. or maybe she really had to go.
we sold most of our drinks but the snacks went quite slowly. point to note for everyone who's going to sell stuff at carnivals - no snacks! they go slowly and are not very profitable! D:
trip's in two days. i found out who's the other guy who's going to be hosted by the o'hallorans. haha BIG POKE BEE! :D it will be fun to torture him whilst me and kim have the chance to. XD

i am excited and nervous to meet my hosts. :) they'll be living further away, but nevermind i've got kim! XD
but yet, there is just this tinge of regret and anxiety and a little stress. regret that i'll miss the great opportunities that came my way but i had to reject 'cos i wouldn't be in singapore. anxious because the week i come back, it's the test week and i theoratically would have not learnt anything to do with the syllabus. stress because before the trip i already have so much to settle, i cannot imagine my workload after i come back. especially with the eom arrangement and ptm and settling admin stuff in school.
please tell me this isn't a wrong decision. to put off my h1 chinese, to not go for the dance prog and help in next year's dance, to not go for the dialogue which i freaking want to go for, to have the teachers inform me separately on my trip status, to miss two weeks of school, to come back unprepared for tests, to skip awwa adhoc, to not go for sage for two weeks,
just to do something that no other sane singaporean teenager of 17 years would do.
