cure my mood

This is actually the first time I felt worried after an exam that I may not do well. Well, call me kiasu or whatever. Probably cause I know I haven't done any worse than that, and I keep thinking of how my parents will try and induce more guilt if/when I don't perform as well as I'm 'supposed' to. Isn't that so typical of Asian parents?

I already felt nervous before entering the hall, but seeing the questions I practically replicated what I practiced. I thought I would be okay. Until I realized I didn't have enough content to elaborate. Especially on the last question on carbon trade. I KNOW I can do it, I didn't allocate my time well enough. That was my mistake. The rest of the questions I kept wondering whether I elaborated enough; I think I knew the concepts the question was aiming at, drawing the graphs and all, but I didn't know whether it was enough to warrant 20 marks. Hey, come on, with 5 questions and all of equal marks, I definitely had some justification for worrying.

After the exam, the girl sitting next to me went "Maybe you'd like to switch off your phone like you're supposed to the next time?"

>__>

Fine. It's not like you're going to sit next to me again unless Fate plays some terribly cruel joke on the both of us. I mean, I know her face; she's sitting for the same bloody paper. I actually thought she was a pretty person. So sue me for being shallow and judgemental, but I think you have no right to tell me off. Just shut up and do your damn paper.

But in the end.... Byron, it's all your fault! Buat apa nak panggil orang masa orang tengah buat exam! But then again he obviously didn't know I had a paper then. =P

I felt pretty down by the end of the exam. Went back home feeling pretty much crappy. And not having too bright thoughts about tomorrow too.

Sam was there, and I guess he could tell by the massive grey clouds that hung over my head that I wasn't exactly the sunniest person at that moment.

To cure it, well Sam tried to cheer me up with his silliness. He can be funny like that. My 'junior' (he *is* younger than me by a year) cheering me up. It's something, all right.

Drank some honey+water.
Then we ate some Ferrero Roche.
And then I let Sam read Fi's note.
So we ate some cake.
AFTER that though, we went for a spin on Sam's new car.

Now THAT WAS FUN. XD

Reaching 100kph in what, 3 seconds on a slightly windy road? That was fun! On top of which feeling the car fly was quite fun XD This is a time where I miss houhou speeding @ 90kph in a back alley. You have to take me on one of those again when I get back.

That totally made my day!

Thanks alot, Sam!

I wonder why my heart beats so fast. Is it a sign that I might panic during the paper? Or is it something else? Could be a mix of both.

Bugger.
