Finally we've gotten back all our papers! All in all, I need relatively OK. Some subjects were way below expectations, some of them were higher than expectations, others just alright. Thanks to the three 50s I've got, my EOY average is damn low. >.< But I should be glad I didn't fail anything, unless the passing mark is 55, and that would be Chemistry. Now what we have to worry about is Imagineering! Some groups have already presented today, and I'm both jealous of them and also relieved that our group's presentation is not today! It means we have more time for preparation, but while they slack, we are still brooding over what will happen! According to Ruiqi, it was OK. But questions will be asked! How horrible. But talking about imagineering, I must talk about the attitude of one of my fellow group members. Let me refer to the person as X, so as not to create any tension. X likes to criticise people of not doing anything, when X did not anything more than I did. Definitely not. X frequently disappears during meetings, but X does not mention anything about that when X criticizes people! What's worse is, X failed to see what I have done for Imagineering! Then X came and say I did NOTHING for imagineering. What a joke. What about all the times Y didn't know what to do and came to ask me for help, and during the first semester I helped out a lot more than X did. X dares to come and talk to me about contributions? So pissed off, but I merely kept quiet. I do not want to harm a friendship just because of a project. And its not like other group members did a lot more than I did. X just picks on me because I am the noisier one. Like, whatever.. On a happier note, I am now trying to learn Korean all over again. The alphabet I used to know has long since been forgotten, and I have forgotten how to write my name in Korean. It's OK, I will learn again. I think Korean is very interesting with all their "ah" and "oh" sounds. And this reminds me of phonetics. Language never fails to amaze me. I wonder how is it that certain things can have such similar sounds in different languages. Like the word love is "ai" in Chinese, and also "ai" in Japanese. So interesting. I feel like taking up the phonetics elective, but thinking about how so many people would be bidding for it, I think that bidding too many points won't be worth it. And I think I am obsessed with learning languages. The first one I wanted was Spanish, when I got Jessica to help me out. She takes Spanish lessons in her school! How cool is that? [Unknowing ones, she's my penpal from USA] Then I went on to French, but because I didn't get that for third lang, I gave up. And Jap, which was mostly taken up from the Internet, then Korean. But it will be scary if I knew so many languages har? I wonder how people manage being multi-lingual. I am having enough trouble trying to be effectively bilingual. And now everyone's complaining about exam results. You see, Dunman High has terribly long marking days and they only got their papers back today. How lucky. I wish I could grasp time better. Time is so important. Just one second, and you just might lose someone important to you.
