I'd just like to describe one of the worst experiences of my life that happened today. And no, it has nothing to do with it being the first day of ISP.

It all started when I woke up for school. I was feeling surprisingly...weird. To be more specific, my stomach felt weird. Such a strange sensation; I felt like I was starving, but also like my stomach was being sucked out clean with a vacuum cleaner. =x

And so, what would one naturally do to appease a hungry stomach? I went to have my breakfast of course. But, even food made my stomach queasy. Like it didn't want to accept any nutrients for the start of the day. Even though I felt like it was during the fasting month and my tummy was empty, I had no appetite and I felt just nauseous at the thought of shoving food into my mouth. I had to force myself to chew and swallow my breakfast, seeing as I won't last half the day if I didn't.

God, did I feel like throwing up every single bit of food that went down my gullet. I had to force myself not to vomit out all the food I had just eaten, for my rebellious stomach seem to be rejecting the food. And even after breakfast, I felt no better.

This stupid queasiness in my stomach lasted all the way till I got to school, and I thought I might die by the end of Bio (the first period); it was draining me. That reminds me, when I had to assemble at the basketball court, I made the mistake of walking past the food stalls, and the smell of food was sickening to me. My stomach even gave an unpleasant lurch, threatening to spill out all the semi-digested contents I had for breakfast. Ew.

And you know what? I felt all better by the second period after I had a set of hiccups. ;D Can you believe it?

Other than that, school was fine. Though the A Maths mock exam was utterly worth detesting.

Attending a Parent-Teacher Conference is hardly something we enjoy, unless you're like a model student with straight As and whom everyone loves.

But because I'm not a Mary Sue one of those such students, and add in the fact that I have a beautiful F9 on my report slip, I did not enjoy the Meet the Parents Session. Much.

Still, I was rather pleased when Mrs Wong said that I "write very well". :DDD That's like one of the best things a teacher has ever said about me! Yes, I know, a few of my previous teachers did comment something similar before, but not straight to my face. Hee. XD (Though Mrs Wong, I think you mistook me for Geelyn; I do not bring down my storybooks to the assembly ground to read.)

There. That's all I can say about the MTP session.

~~~~~~~~

Don't you just hate it when your strengths and your interest lie in different, contrasting areas? Say, I'm very good at something, but I'm not interested in that as a future career. Instead, I'm interested in something else, but I'm average in it, and I might not even succeed in it for all we know.

That just...sucks. D:

Excuse the short paragraphs for this post. Anyway, I'm in the process of changing the blogskin. Might take a while though; need to request for a few readjustments.

For those of you who ARE interested in my life, here's a quick update: XD

• I've already decided on a timetable for revision during the June hols. I'll be occupied from 8am to 2.30pm (recognise the timing? Lols.) with my books, files and notes. What joy.
• I've decided that 6 June, Fri, would be the day I'd go watch Prince Caspian! :D
• Hazrina makes a good mentor! And I don't mean in the area of studies. ;D
• I...actually miss fencing. A little. =/

HIGHER MALAY Common Test II result: Up from a C6 to a B4! :D

Overall, my L1R5 from last CTs to this CTs improved by 8 points! Still, it's not even close to the desired L1R5 I'm aiming for Os. Well, I'm definitely preparing for one major honeymoon with my textbooks, files and revision notes during the upcoming June hols. Before that, I must tearfully bid farewell to my DS and perhaps this computer as well. No worries about my handphone being a distraction; it's been almost silent for a month now, save for the recent smses from my sister.

And my emotional turmoil seems to be behind me now. It hardly affects me now that I've begun to accept the OBVIOUS fact and move on.

Actually, the only thing I'm looking forward to during the June hols is the Narnia movie outing with my sis. Thank you Mum for the free movie vouchers! ;D

It's nearly mid-May but this is just the first post of May. Oh well. I've been busy READING.

And now the almighty news: COMMON TESTS RESULTS.

• ENGLISH: Pfft. Anything less than an A1 is a failure, I tell you. I definitely want to choke myself for writing an effing report instead of a letter. It's like the time when Mao Asada made just ONE little mistake at her short program but that cost her the gold medal at the 2007 World Championships. I know I could've gotten a better grade than what I got. And I'm not revealing what it is. It's simply horrendous.
• CHEMISTRY: What can I say? It's an improvement from a D7 to a B3! :DDDD
• BIOLOGY: I'm glad that I'm consistent in Bio. That earned me an A1, like last time. :D
• SOCIAL STUDIES: What a shocker, Definitely didn't expect to get this high. Rashidah should be proud. XD Up from an A2 to an A1! :DDD
• LITERATURE: Maybe it's to make up for my failure in English. But getting the highest mark in class is reeeaaallly sweet. :D A1.
• E MATHS: Another shocker, but a bigger one. I actually passed! Up from an E8 to a C5 (though I could've gotten better if I had finished it, mind you). Hey, it's still an improvement! :DDD
• A MATHS: Hey, all I can say is I'm REAL glad I managed to get a 2-digit mark this time. ;D But yeah, still a fail.
• ECONOMICS: D7. DD: Not a huge shocker actually. This is what I get without Jesmine for 5 months.
• HIGHER MALAY: Have yet to receive. But I'm pretty sure I passed. The worst I can get is a C. Oh well.

I'm especially glad about my grades for Chem and E Math. Now that I'm eyeing a career in forensics, you can say I'm working hard at both my Chem & Bio. And while some of you are scoring god knows how high in E Maths, even a pass in that subject shows that I'm improving. Even a small improvement is better than no improvement, yeah? (:

I thought I had gotten over my failure in English, but I guess I'm still moping over it.
