Sorrow and euphoria, two contradicting nouns, which perfectly describe my life, though up till now, the latter seemed to prove more accurate.The holidays have just begun like, two days ago? Yeah, that's right.
On Friday, there were plenty of high notes for the day, but with the high you get the low as well. Every rose has it's thorn. There I was sitting in the classroom, hyperventilating because apparently I suck at additional mathematics, which fortunately (and also unfortunately, depending on how you see it.) is scheduled for the last day of the exam season, which also marks the end of the second semester (Congratulations, you have survived yet another dreadful semester. Now for the coming one). Anyway, there I was, twitching erratically on the inside as the teacher distributed the papers, one by one. While I was like "oh my god, oh my god, oh my god!" and when I got hold of my paper I looked at the first two questions as they stared back at me. Then I realized, 'hey! I know how to do this!' which I then proceeded to quickly fill the answer space up, feeling proud of myself, I flipped to the second page and then my heart probably skipped a few beats. 'I'm doomed,' I thought. And I know now that I definitely thought right then. So ended up randomly scribbling equations and numbers and little letters all over the paper, half of which I have no idea what I was doing and eventually I didn't manage to finish the paper, leaving approximately 40-50 marks of the paper untouched. Well I know I'm going to fail this term and I'm going to get an earful, but you can't change the past, and there's nothing like the present. Our new theme is "The past is an experience, the present is an experiment, and the future is an expectation; So use your experience, in your experiments, for your expectations." Pretty awesome huh? And which moron gave the stereotype that all guys are good in mathematical calculations and physics? I can prove you wrong!
Well, anyway, after the dreadful paper which killed like a quarter of my brain cells, I met up with my BFs. We had already made plans to go out and like, enjoy the freedom of the beginning of the semester break and to cool off some steam (well, for me at least) We decided to go karaoke singing at Pyramid. Along the way they peeped at C's phone messages and found some rather...engaging conversations with some guy who I prefer not to disclose. But that wasn't much fun, unfortunately, but it sure grabbed the attention of the other bus passengers who thought we (or at least I was mentally retarded) when I like dashed to the front where the other half of the group was sitting, okay now it just seems awkward. Upon arriving, we went to the washroom to change and freshen up (you get a rather good discount on the bus fare when you're in school uniforms, students ftw) and apparently Q left us and went who-knows-where. So the rest of us went to the RedBox place. Turns out there were quite a few people there so we had to wait to register.
In the meantime, we could hear the epically horrible screeches (we were no better, but I like insulting people) of the other patrons from their...rooms? Yeah, rooms. X didn't have her IC/Student card, so she (and the rest of us because we share costs 'cause we love each other :D) was charged a regular head charge price. (Oh well) So we also added on a lunch which was quite expensive for the food they provided. And sang songs (duh, what else would you do with songs?) for like two hours, alternating between people. At about 5 we left and headed to the steamboat restaurant nearby our homes for a sumptuous dinner (okay, maybe not that extravagant, but good enough) and we were like, talking like people who frequent the marketplace and gossip (we also talked about them and their foolish ways of spreading false rumours). After filling our bellies with a plethora of seafoods and some meats and some strange things, we headed back home.
Fun day, I would say. Fun morning? Don't think so. Nuh-uh.Okay, now to plan and put together an outing/get-together/gathering or whatever you would call it for my class. Ehstrians, please be more cooperative -.- And actually G pointed out that there's no point in that as we still will see each other soon in two weeks, not like the year-end holidays, that would be a perfect time for a trip though. Penang? Yes, please! :D
There you have it, an inside scoop of my life, and the first of many to come. I will probably update like once every two days so be on your toes, peeps! - B.
