YA Rose By Any Other Name...
AHHAHAHAHAHAH!
Anyway. My exams started yesterday. Today's Social Studies paper was horrible. I didn't finish in time and I couldn't remember everything. After it all I just sort of sat there and wanted to act all ice maidenish to make myself feel better (i get a kick out of scaring the juniors by pretending to be all cold--but I doubt they notice) but then I figured it wouldn't really make me feel better.
Tried to figure out endothermic and exothermic reactions with Zhen and upon concluding that we would have no success until Mrs. Tan helped us, went home. Tried to do bio but was too hungry. Then was supposed to do history but was too sleepy. So I took a nap.
Actually, I wasn't asleep. I was sort of trying to fool myself into pretending that i was asleep so I wouldn't have to do my work. I think I did that for about an hour, and then my stupid conscience got the better of me, so I psycho-ed myself into liking history (I really do; I just don't like studying it), read up on the Yalta and Potsdam conferences, did a bit of physics, and, believe it or not, slacked the rest of the day away.
I mean, I had allocated those subjects to today, and once I completed it, I was free to slack, just that it was really weird because I've never actually had time to slack.
So I read, and I ran, and I watched TV and went online and all the while I have this nagging feeling of guilt in my mind. Like, "You have so much free time, why aren't you studying? You have physics prac tomorrow, don't you think you should be doing something?"
I really don't know. I mean, I told myself there wasn't any point studying for Social Studies yesterday if I don't feel like it and then I went and messed up today's exam.
I just finished reading Ecclesiastes. It was rather apt for the exam period. "Everything is meaningless", over and over again. "You're going to die, anway. Rich man, poor man, wise man, fool, they all meet the grave and their achievements will be worth nothing."
The solution? "Fear God and obey His commands."
