prelimsssss

hurrah, prelims are nearly over. finally. Though SATs A levels and uniapps lie in the future. bloody hell I don't even wanna think about it. I'm wondering if I should review the prelim experience here but that seems boring and almost like I'm trying to relive the torture. 

Time for random comments about everything I learnt these few weeks. I mean, afterall, not like anything important has been happening recently. Right? Right?

1) Ironing on your bed is easier than ironing on a curved ironing board. Who's bright idea was it to invent an ironing board that is curved then con my mother into buying it. I guess there is the advantage that it allows gravity to pull the clothes down to straighten it as you iron but its impossible to iron pleats as a result because the pleats unruffle as you try to iron them straight. (I know unruffle is not a word but it does describe the clothes best. if you don't understand, you should try ironing uniforms for a day)

2) Raywilliamjohnson and Rhettandlink are valid reasons to sleep at 2am.

3) My chair that I sit on broke. That of course, has nothing to do with the number of mooncakes I'm eating.

4) ROBOT UNICORN ATTACK. is the dumbest and funnest game evar. But I do think that out of courtesy to those of us who use it as our single relief from muggery and stress that other people should stop causing my game to hang and my unicorn to go crashing into a star. but yes, ALWAYS I WANNA BE WITH YOU AND MAKE BELIEVE WITH YOU AND LIVE IN HARMONYHARMONY OH LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I give up on cboxes

haha the damn thing never did me any good anyway.

Grah, I realise that whoever I meet in school nowadays all feel a sense of impending doom. Everyone tells me they are "screwed for math" or "dead for chem" or "gonna die for econs", and, well, I guess, understandably so. (ok, except the econs one, that one you econs students bring on yourself)

Yeah, well, I guess the idea that we need to mug everything for this test kinda throws the whole thing off balance and we gg when we realise that there are too many exams coming too soon with too much to study for. I guess we are all worried that we are the only one dying and everyone else is gonna do well and leave you in the dust.

awww.

But its not that bad right? I guess everyone will make it through in one piece and so what if we don't know the conditions for dehydrohalogenation? Or the reason we should not use continuity correction with the Central Limit Theorem? Or the effect of market failure on the Aggregate Supply of a country? Not like your entire prelim depends on that scrap that you don't know right?

Well, I guess thats how everyone feels right now so I'd tell all my readers to "chin up" and that "everything will be fine" but I don't have any readers so. hmm. I guess I'm just telling myself that I'll be fine.

Why, thanks Ruth, I knew you'd always be there for me.

What the hell.

No, I do not like the fact that a water feature sprung up in my house. Bloody hell why did no one care when I objected to it. Come on, I can't swim, what is the point of a big puddle of water in the middle of my freaking garden? Oh right, because it makes the family look so much cooler if the neighbours can look in and see the high fountain that is visible over the fence right? Because we can spend our Sunday afternoons splashing about and feeling good about what we have? Because we can all invite our friends over and position tables round the chlorinated stench? Because we can boast that the family managed to stay sane through all that noise and your children can study for exams with the sound of drilling, craning and now, water which converts gravitational potential energy to freaking noise energy?


Bloody hell, grow up already.
