Prelims are over

Wow it has been nearly an entire term since I last updated my blog. It's been really busy. No other excuses to offer haha. I just re-read my previous entry and I ended up getting M for that mental eco test which was incredibly suprising. I finished my eco internal as well and recently got my marks back, E :) so happy.

World Vision...well I guess it's been up and down for me in terms of my level of enthusiasm. Things were so crazy the whole time though. Everything that could have gone wrong pretty much went wrong. But finally the thing pulled together and we had a reasonably good night. There was the fear we wouldn't even break even. But we did and I think we did manage to raise some kind of money ^ ^"

The night before the social was the music department concert, 'Celebration of the Arts' organised by Tamsin and Joanna. It went pretty well :) I had my cello duet right before my duet with Yi Lein so there was some minor instrument shuffling going on hah. Good times, it was something I really needed as I was preparing myself for ultimate failure during the social the following night.

Exams have just finished for me. Today is the last day but I don't have any. Rating from best to worst: Stats, English, History, Classics, Eco. No, it's not a mistake that eco is at the end. It was a horrible exam and Ms Sturme is going to be severely disappointed in my performance...And I thought stats would be a horrible exam because I had no idea what was going on really. But the night before I got James to help me with some linear programming stuff and I suppose I realised that I actually did know what I needed to. It was a good way to start exam week. Eco and history were on the same day >.< which really annoyed me. My worst exam and most important. As it turns out, history wasn't so bad after eco in the morning. Resource interpretation was pretty whacked. It wasn't what I was expecting and I kinda just wrote crap. I just hope it's the right kind of crap. Classics ranks pretty low because ... Well I don't think i studied well for it and my socrates essay was pretty airy. Greek vases though...was the worst paper by far. I made the biggest most idiotic mistake every and it's going to cost me the A...urgh. So frustrated with myself about that....
English was my last exam yesterday morning. It went alright actually. I entered with low expectations of my performance and if I would be able to sustain writing for that long, especially since my hand goes crazy these days. But it was fine, finished everything. My novel (Cat's Eye) essay was pretty short. Heh like only just two pages. Oh well...Hopefully enough to pass by. I'd be pretty depressed if I failed a paper. I remember I failed unfamiliar last year. But I was one mark away from M so that's a bit screwed up. Meh, now that they're all over I can't do anything about them. If I did bad it's like 'damn that sucks' but I can't change what's happened...unfortunately. Hopefully with more study and motivation I will be able to do well in the externals.

This term I've also been applying for scholarships along with everyone else. They're pretty time consuming what with all the letters and personal statements you need to write. Congratulations to Jennifer who got through to have an interview for the PWC finance and accounting scholarship :) I'm like.. her manager haha *bows* thank you thank you. lol.

Service for Variety has been going well. Yi Lein and I helped out with the Monster Book Fair, scoring ourselves some books too haha so now my shelves are filled just right. Have a lot of books to read though seeing as I haven't got the time to read them during exams.

Badminton is almost over. Last game tomorrow :( it's so awesome and I'm going to miss it immensely. I want to be able to play randomly though, perhaps I will. Dad went to Malaysia a couple of weeks back and bought me a new racket with a bag and everything. So now I look all professional but I don't exactly continue that on court. Haha! It's nice though. Edith likes my old one so she's still using it.

Today is also Jane's 18th Birthday! So a big hug to her and hope you have a great day :)

Songs I rather like right now:

Hey There Delilah by Plain White T's
Very sweet, "I'm a thousand miles away/But girl tonight you look so pretty/Yes you do/Times Square can't shine as bright as you/I swear it's true"

Bubly by Colbie Colliat
I really like this song right now haha ^-^ ......cus...it's nice hehe. "I always know/That you make me smile/Please stay for a while now" heh enough said lol...

黑色毛衣 by Jay Chou
Yeah Mandarin song lol but it's nice. I can sorta understand it ^-^

This coming Sunday is the history trip up north. It should be good, totally new. Bye bye city....haha I think I'll survive for three days...I hope :p

So today is like muck around and do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING hahahahaha yay. I was thinking of playing some flute and piano. I haven't touched music since the concert. Haven't even gone to cello lessons. Heh. I've been folding origami this morning though. Have like zero skill in anything vaguely crafty but I try haha and I managed to do something resembling a hoppy frog thing and a crane. Yay for Amelia. Maybe I will attempt that lily again later.
James convinced me last night to put my folding habits to some sort of use. So instead of folding bits of paper into useless shapes I can perhaps produce something nice to look at. A good idea in theory I suppose haha.

Hoping all is going well for the people sitting Jap exam right now and all the best for bio internal this afternoon :)
Have a good day!
