black and white
french is over.
i messed up french big time. my paper 2 that is. i thought p1 was pretty ok. p2 exam was very interesting tho. the invigulator's cellphone went off first... so they got rid of that... then a few minutes later- the power went off. haha. ppl were laughing and stuff. it was strange. so anyway. the invigulators noticed a window so they got a ladder out of one of the stores (which i never knew was there) and opened the curtains.. and we all had to move towards the windows. it was strange considering we had to do this in complete silence. :)
oh and at the end of the exam, i realised (after asking around) that i completely misuderstood the question and thereofre my essay is on a different topic. which is NOT GOOD. but i hope that they dont take many points off cuz its out of 30 and 10 points out of that is the contents marks. the other 10 is grammar ( i think i did relaly well!! ><) and the other 10 im not so sure. so i could get at lesat 10 points still! ah. this is not good.
but i still want a 6 in french. :(

do not read first paragraph if u dont care about my french.
i'm getting bored of revision. maybe its just french. i got bored of french yesterday and switched to math and did just fine. :) i mean, i did revise. when i was doing french i was messing around a lot doodling and stuff and didnt get much done. but for now i know how to write verbs in
present, futur, passe compose, imparfait, plus que parfait('had done' - imperfect auxiliary + past tense verb) , subjonctif (take the 'ils' form of the verb as the stem and use the different endings: e, es, e, ions, iez, ent), and something else which i cant remmeber the name of... but its like... the future stem and imperfect endings, and the past tense form of that is when the auxiliary is written as that, and the verb is in passe compose. please let me get that right... i need to go check. ok. its called conditional, and conditional past. and i did get it right. :) its used when constructing a sentence which starts with 'si'. there are 3 types:
present... future
imparfait... conditional
plus que parfait... conditional past
i need to learn the irregular verbs... and VOCAB. my vocab is so limited... i dont know if i start learning them now itll be enough to understand stuff on friday, and to be able to write a good essay... i need a 6 in french. well i want a 6. i cant aim any higher than that i guess since i messed up my oral exam pretty badly. enough about french. -end-
tell u something quite silly. i was in the library yestereday right? and this guy next to me had chocolates... so i really wanted chocs too! so i decided to go out and get some.. cuz theres a 7-11 across the road. so i went out and got my chocolates... and when i came out of the shop- it started raining. really heavily. but i had to get back to the library! so well.. yeah., i sorta ran and got pretty wet.. and in the middle of running my slippers came off so i had to turn around and go get them again and it was all very embarassing... and i had to go back to my seat wet... o, and i was sitting on the inside of the room this time, as far as u could get from the door, so i had to walk through the whole room...
all of that for chocolates.
greaduation dinner preparation:
got my dress, and accesssories, and now.. i got my shoes! its nothing like what i had in mind initially... but after looking everywhere for something i want, i realised i need to be a bit more flexible. nonetheless i love the ones i got and i think its v cute. :) its not extremely high but ill be about 8cm taller. hahaha.
i think im going to be very white for graduation tho. not something i planned...
anyway. like azusa said, i think we're more prepared for graduation than we are for the exams...^^
ive been doing quite a bit of SUDOKU these few nights. its a bit sad.... anyway. guess what? isnt sudoku in a way a group? (math p3 stuff) its only missing an operation... i mean, k. if 1 is the identity, then 1 appears in every row and every column so every element has an inverse. so theres identity, an inverse, and its closed. well, without an operation, then thers no such thing as associativity is there? hahaha.
i need to get a life.

i am such a pig.
i came home early today after my final english p2 exam (YES!! NO MORE ENLGISH LIT FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE!!) and after returning all my bio, geog, and english books (so satisfying... well except for the bio books bit. that was a bit sad :( ) so by 11:15 or so i was home.. and i was hungry. so i made myself lunch.(2 sausages and 2 slices of bread with butter, toasted. not the healthiest) then i had chocolate (i was rumaging around the fridge forever trying to find some. mum suggested an apple instead, but i found them at last so instead of an apple, i had chocolate...) at around 12, i was sitting on the couch doing nothing, and i was very sleepy. so i decided to take a short nap- in my room. bad idea. cuz my bed is too comfy. :) so anyway. this 'short nap' turned out to be a 4 hours sleep. 4 hours. right after my not-so-healthy meal for lunch. so anyway. i woke up at 4. and i decided to do the dusting that my mum asked me to do at 12... and now i'm here. sort of in shock about what just happened. i really didnt plan to sleep so much. tomorrow i will wake up early. ah. how many times have i said that!??!
good luck to everyone with many exams this week. :)

im going crazy!!
ive been home the entire day. i've done nothing. tried working on my bed, but ended up falling asleep. my study table is too messy to work on. bro currently having tuition in the back room. so im in my room. and ive done NOTHING. but u see... its english. its very.. subjective. but no reason why i shouldnt do at least a bit more revision. i got so much notes.. i went to revision sessions etc. so i should make use of them and maybe get my brain thinking about the plays and know them pretty well before tomorrow. i think if i do that tonight i wont be able to sleep at night again. but then if im not able to sleep i can blame that on excessive sleeping during the day too.
i think im blogging too much. but then thers nothing else to do. 1)piano 2) guitar 3) blog 4) revision. so... yeah. toomuch of 1 2 and 3. should do a bit more of 4. or i could go exercise. hahaha. yea right.
