I tell you!
HSC is seriously TOOO LONG.
i cannot stand having 4 weeks of exams! BECAUSE I GET DISTRACTED and i start bludging. Like i am doing now.
I've been through 2 weeks and theres two more to go and i'm becoming increasingly lazy, chatting, games, movies, tv shows. It's bad but having a week before your next exam just makes you wanna relax. I almost feel like i'm in holidays, but then i am duly reminded that no i am not in holidays and have only gotten through half of my exams.
Before every exam, whilst in the exam room i freak out abit.
And i think i will severely freak out just before the economics exam because i need to ace that exam and make sure it scales me like theres no tomorrow. I need to be scaled really high in it! so everyone else has to do well! then i shall ride the elevator up the scaling board. Like say riding the elevator up centrepoint tower. LOL!
Anyways i was totally owned to death by the maths paper on friday. It was HORRID. JUST HORRID. The horrors was just too much. I felt so prepared and so confident going into the exam as i had completed all past papers from 01-06 including catholic papers and frankly they weren't that bad. But when i got into the exam and looked at the question i almost collapsed on my tiny 1m by 50cm table. It was all the stuff i couldn't do. There were too many equations and probability and graphs. Equations!! *shivers* we are standard! equations should be minimalistic for us and they should concentrate on ANNUITIES!! and financial maths!! but no. The BOS disregarded the fact we were general and decided it would be funny to see us become thrashed and virtually papercutted by a few sheets of paper.
So it totally sucked ass. There was also one question asking us to draw a graph and they didn't give us graph paper which is BULLOCKS. Then there was this HIDEOUS triangle question. I swear i thought i had conquered all the conquerable triangles in all those past papers but damn this triangle was beyond that. Evil triangle!! i now forever hate trangles and feel that all shapes should have 4 or more sides. triangles ... *shivers*
After the exam everyone was complaining about the difficulty of a paper which ... shouldn't have been difficult at all! AND WE ARE ALL GONNA BE SCALED DOWN SO BADLY. It's gonna be a freefall of down scaling. So yes, after that paper my hopes of getting 90 uai have been completely obliterated. The hope was taken away by the BOS, sat on, shat on, treaded on, made into a triangle *shivers* and placed onto a graph and asked to find the gradient of it then smashed into a quadrillion pieces, put into a cake mix, baked, iced, sprinkled with chocolate chips and eaten by our dear board of studies.
Anyways thats about it thats happened in the week.
Well i got reallly bored yesterday and the day before yesterday and today because of ancient history which might i add is soo incredibly boring to study. Honestly i'm falling asleep! I wish we did the persians. the persians are sooo interesting. Especially about how they tried to take over the spartans. =(
I have also been reading the book freakonomics, mainly due to my increasing boredom with ancient. I decided to read a book that bases everyday thing with economics. Which is quite sad. How almost everything is based on economics and you can figure things out with the use of economics. I think knowing economics gives people alot of power. You can find out when you can speed and when you can't speed using economics! did you know? it was the most interesting thing i have read. (okay overstatement) but it was one of them.
i think i'm blabbering on .
I'll stop!
Well whilst im blogging away here i think people are being owned by their 2unit mathematics exam. Those poor peoples.
I have three more exams left omg! ITS SO MUCH. SOOO BORING TO WAIT.
OHH i have also become addicted to the anime "one piece" awwws. I'm gonna watch the whole thing after hsc. Its funny how we plan everything for after the hsc. LOL i mean we have time to do it now really but you'd just feel guilty doing it.
Anyways!

Off to Queensland we go!
Yes once again i am off to queensland because the band is playing in gold coast at 3 places or something. Anyways! so i am off tonight again on bus and i shall return on sunday, a zombie. LOL
Today was FINALLY FRIDAY!
*hurrah-ish!*.
First was art and yes i had to bludge my way through, trying to pretend i was doing something. The teacher IS OH SO ANNOYING! she is really starting to get on my nerves, she speaks fast and in an alarmed wonderous way like a little kid. "what are you doing? should u be doing this? well how about u do some theory if ur not doing anything?" and she says that all in the span of 3 seconds and its quite fast! taking 1 second per sentence!
Second was english and we spent it watching strictly ballroom. Well not really. The teacher paused it at every frame! literally every frame! and he would analyse that frame like a photograph! by the end of the period we had literally only watched 7 minutes of the movie and written 2 pages of notes. And it was probably more like 5 minutes of it because of the fact that there was credits and stuff at the start. It was quite good as we were able to get so many useful techniques out of it! WOOOTS!! Jess kept being drowsy because of hayfever and almost fell asleep but then I shook her. LOL. *EARTHQUAKE IN JESSWORLD* LOL yerp.
Then it was ancient and the sheet flooding began. I think we got 2 today, one was thick. So yes. Zahra who was visiting took advantage of her visit and stole some sheets, but she claims the teacher gave it to her! Then we just chatted amongst ourselves about ... i can't remember what but it was quite amusing.
Last was economics and i am proud to say that I PASSED! i may have just passed but the fact of the matter is that i passed and i had seriously thought i wouldn't because i was so dead that day! anyways i got 51% WOOOTS!! it may not be a good mark but all i wanted was to pass and so i am happy. Yes annie is pleased and is now able to live on without thoughts of suicide. LOL!! jokes. We were also bombarded with sheets in eco, all of which we were told to read, i feel as thought it is like wide reading but um not very wide as its all on the one topic and endlessly boring. Oh eco is starting to get me down. Its to depressing! knowing that a depression could happen anytime now and that poor people are everywhere and standards of living and what not crap. Though that may be for some people but not for me i just think its depressing because of the fact I AM NOT DOING FANTASTIC IN IT!
anyways and that was my day and i will be heading to queensland soon which is supposedly going to be raining all weekend so THATS JUST GREAT! =.= can't take decent photographs!!! i will however TRY.
