Wow. My poor blog's starting to feel quite abandoned...

I am so tired. Truly, incredibly tired. Had 4 tests and 2 assignments due this week. And got back 2 tests today, applicable maths and lit.

Looking at my previous post, I mentioned that history is my 2nd worst subject, with lit as my worst subject. I really must apologise and retract this false statement after getting my lit essay back. I miraculously (despite not going for nearly 10 minutes of every lesson) passed very well (imho), with 20/25 for my essay! :D The top mark was 23/25, and the next top mark was 21/25. So I must admit that I'm feeling very pleased with myself :D.

And that means that history is my worst subject now. Despite me deciding against dropping the dear subject after speaking to my dear history teacher. She started off saying that it's my choice whether to drop it or not, but changed her stance to 'you must be crazy to want to drop history' after 10 minutes. Well, she thought my reasons for dropping the subject were unfounded. I begged to differ.

However, I have a really bad feeling that physics is going to be my worst subject after the first test(s) in all my subjects. The average for the class which got their tests back (their teacher wasn't away on some camp, unlike ours) was 54%, which is extremely dismal. The girl who won the physics prize last year only got 37/50. I'm estimating around 20% for myself at this rate.

So yes. The first tests (or assessments, for that matter) for most of my subjects are actually quite pleasing! Let's see...

Physics: no idea yet, and don't want to know
History: well, the assignment didn't go very well and neither did the doc study (which we haven't gotten back, but I know I screwed up)
Calculus: 51/56 (91%). Yay! Expected to fail, but our teacher was nice for once and gave us an easy test
Applicable maths: easy test too. Got 47/50 (94%)
Lit: 20/25!!!
Chem: 33/35 (hehe)

And I swear my lit teacher hates me. He glares at me all the time (probably because a) I don't pay attention and b) I turn up late nearly every lesson), and tells me off for talking. He's told me off 5 times between yesterday's and today's lessons, which has surpassed the number of times I've been told off by teachers in this school EVER (been here for 1 yr and 3 months). Which is actually quite hilarious. Except that it's obvious he's picking on me because he didn't tell the people who were talking to me off, and yesterday, it was someone who asked me to help her with her maths assignment. Urgh. How unfair.

However, a pro/con (depending on the perspective you're looking from) is that I know he knows my name. I was just expressing my doubt over that to my friend when I got told off for talking. Bah.

Poor Keisha was quite sad over her maths test today. She got 38/50, and the mean was 40.5/50, with the standard deviation (we were doing a test on stats, so I guess the teacher wanted to give us this to consolidate our understanding) of 4.83. That's just for our class. But well, it means that everyone did really well, or more probably the test was easy (though that didn't eliminate the careless mistakes from my answers. Lost all my marks on those).

And my maths teacher asked me if I wanted to do this maths comp in 2 weeks time (Friday night). Considering I don't really do anything on Friday evenings except blog/eat/sleep/watch tv/be a couch potato, I was quite keen. However, I realised that I would have no dinner (unless someone was nice enough to buy me some) on that day since my parents wouldn't be bothered to drive all the way back home and back to school and back home again considering how it takes about 45 minutes (average) for a one-way trip.

So I could a) guilt-trip my maths teacher into buying dinner for me or b) get my dad to send me dinner after work (work place is 15 mins away) or c) walk about half an hour out to a fast-food joint to get dinner or d) not go. I think I'll try a. After all, I'm doing them a favour.

And it's not a solo maths comp thing. It's teams of 6 people... So at least I can just leech off other people. Wahahaha. I mean, it really escapes me why they want me to do the comp, considering how I totally *aced* maths in NY.

Anyway, it's been a long day and a long post. I'll blog about the arts festival 'saga' some other time. Dinner now!
