Exam Time Update [4/6] & [5/6]

My business exam was a killer.  I didn't die, at least, but I don't feel that great about my answers.  Maybe I've just lost faith in myself... only 2 more exams to go.  It seems like I've been writing exams forever... although my first one was only last week.

Wish me luck :\  I'm stressed and (therefore) getting sick :(

S a r a h

P.S. good news is that my in-class test (in the form of a journal entry by Pi Patel) got 100%.  My teacher said she wants a copy, and that it was the most creative thing she's seen in 7 years of teaching.  And apparently, one part made her shed a tear.

Booyah.  :]  I love emotional writing.

Not Ready To Grow Up (3/6)

I did my French test today... it went good, sadly no better than I expected, but also no worse.  I'm burned out of schoolwork already, and it's not ever Tuesday.  Exams are a killer.

Something that's been on my mind a lot lately is that I'm not ready to grow up.  I admit in public that I'm immature and unready for the real world.  In reality, I feel okay to do things on my own; however I know how hard life is going to be like, and I don't want to live it right now.  I want to stay as a kid so I can prepare myself for the worse years to come.

This is where I want to be.

For some happy reason, I seem to be completing all my studying tasks a lot sooner that I thought.  I actually understand French a LOT more than I expected!

I even remember concepts that I learnt in a rushed study-period before a test about a month ago... that doesn't sound impressive, but for me and my memory, it definitely is!

Eg: I made up an acronym - PJ Bec SVF (I didn't have much to work with)  and I remember that they all stand for!
              -- parler/peur, besoin, envie, content, satisfait, vanter, fiere.
Those verbs are all part of an expression that uses "dont" instead of que or qui.  (There are more expressions, but for now that's what we use).

Essay Perfection

Cover of The Truman Show [Blu-ray]

Three perfect essays in a row can say no wrong.  And what mine are telling me, is that I should share.  I should also not worry mindlessly every day until I get the essay back, marked.

Yeah, because lately, the mark has been 100%.

&& I sit there, looking at the marking scheme, reading the 10/10, 20/20 until I get up to the top, where it says 100% in messy, teacher writing.

And then I check the name.  I check the essay.  I check myself.  Then I shout YES! and get really happy.

This is my essay on The Truman Show and EdTV.  It's my rough draft, as the real thing has been sucked into Computer No Man's Land.  :\
