19th june 2007Day sixty seven.
the stress is starting to kick in on the upcoming exams. its not only the pressure on myself for scoring well in all my subjects but also the added pressures of the teachers across all classes. every single lecturer is going at lightning speed in all the lectures that its almost impossible to catch up if you didnt do your own revision outside class times. i guess that explains why everyone is dropping a subject to concentrate on the other ones.
you need a minimum of 4 subjects to calculate your scores for the exams. we took 5 at the start of april term. now, its only the minority few who are left with 5 subjects. almost everyone has dropped out of at least one to concentrate on the others. friends ive made in different classes are now mostly gone (i dont get to see them in classes , other than around school). even lp has dropped out of econs to put in the extra class times towards her discrete maths which she needs for her scores. that only leaves me to see her in accounts and lunch.
it' was so hard to make friends in the first place since you had people from different classes all together. and not everyone took the same subject combinations as you. so you meet many people from different backgrounds. its easy to make friends, but hard to make a true friend. since the odds of being in the same classes day in and out are minimum.
im just glad for lunch times. i think i might have to switch from one table to the next if i were to stay in close contact with friends. its hard since you dont really see them in classes anymore.
michelle is going to switch lunches with me one day. yay! i'll get her rice (okay i sound mean) and she'll get my sandwiches. hey cmon, ive been eating sandwiches for three months in a row. for two whole months, its honey baked ham. now ive gotten sick of it, ive switched to tuna spread. give me another three months and i'll soon get sick of it.
dark chocolate! super high. mummy gave me dark chocolate this morning when i unexpectedly saw her. 70% of cocoa beans. 70% of highness throughout morning tea. haha;D and daddy actually tried to steal it. thanks a lot! dont you dare come close to my chocolate. not even a small piece. shoo! yesterday, i had my chemistry test. im so dead. i didnt study for it, well there's nothing to be studied. its all application so only sufficient practice helps. and i did do all my homework ( im a good girl) and the questions that came out were super difficult- everyone in the class couldnt even finish within those 45minutes. i couldnt, not even shayma or daddy. and im so dead. we made a bet. if i scored highest in class and higher than him- he'll treat me to dinner. if i lose out. i pay half of dinner. whats my odds of winning?
NIL.
and i got rugby tackled by him while heading off to chemistry class. so what if im small. hmmf! i was okay on the tackling part, just not the close shave of hitting near rose shrubs nearby. the thorns and all. if i ever get at least one scratch from a thorn on my skin- youre so dead daddy. i'll tackle you back.
maths was fun. other than the fact that joe didnt come in for lesson in the morning because his car broke down and he got stucked in another suburb. so while he's getting his car fixed. he's stucked there. no maths! well, i wished for that matter! haha;D the head of department came in. rob scott took over joe's lesson- and now i wish it was back to joe. rob teached and rushed through everything so fast- i bet almost half the class didnt get.
daddy didnt bring is maths textbook, so i lent him mine-since my neighbour brought hers. see we're all good girls. we bring books unlike... okay right after i said that. he threatened with his pen to write on my book. i had such a huge reaction that even my partner laughed at me. what! i still want to sell that book to get back my money. the whole lesson was super funny- because daddy kept turning back to borrow my ruler, since his got taken by another friend. we kept snatching rulers from each other till i kept it aside and gave him my small lead refill as a mini ruler to work on, imagine a big guy with big hands holding a small lead refill case and trying to draw a straight line with it. well. you pretty much guess so. he gave up on trying and turned back again to snatch my ruler. haha;D me and simen tried to count the number of times he actually turned around (he was pure bored- you could tell) but it was futile so we rounded it off to two turns per minute.
the afternoon period for maths was cancelled as rob had another class and there wasnt any other teacher to take over the class. so we headed off to the library to chat there while waiting for maths. really funny. i was sitting with mummy and daddy at our table. i did maths, mummy did biology while daddy just sat there and stoned other than the frequent talking sessions we had. haha;D but it was fun.
