3 tests down; 3 days before the next

My exams have begun and are now in progress. So far, I’m through with English Papers 1 and 2, and Computer Applications. Like I’d predicted, English Paper 1 was a piece of cake. I’m particularly proud of my essay—although I don’t know if the examiner’s going to mark it a full 25/25. I’m a little dubious about English Paper 2; especially in the Drama section. I read the entire play (Julius Caesar) once, but apparently, that wasn’t enough. There’s this one four-mark question that I totally skipped: Describe some of the horrifying things that the night watchman saw. I didn’t even know that there was a night watchman in that scene (Act II Scene something). No matter how hard I thought, I couldn’t recall reading anything about a fucking night watchman anywhere. As a result, I totally fucked up that question. I didn’t want to suffer the guilt and humiliation of skipping a whole question, so I deliberately fucked it up. The only ‘horrifying things’ I knew of were the ones that Casca mentioned in Act I Scene 3. I scribbled those down, knowing full well that they were deplorably wrong. At least this way the examiner won’t be under the impression that I don’t know what ‘horrifying things’ means. Computer today was good in its essence, but I might lose marks owing to the fact that my handwriting was totally illegible: In Section B (programs), after I finished the first program, I realized that I missed out a certain detail, so I had to squeeze in entire lines in several places. In some places I had to stuff three lines into one. I can only hope that the examiner isn’t tired out by the time he reaches my paper so that he has the patience to decipher what I’ve written. Apart from that and one mistake I made somewhere else, I suppose it was cool.

I’m done with 155 episodes of Bleach, and I’m in the process of downloading the English dub of the movie—Bleach: Memories of Nobody. I’m planning to watch it today. I’m also a full-fledged Bleach-fic writer now. I’ve realized that you get a great deal in return for posting up a fic in the Bleach category. The Slam Dunk category was and will always be hopeless; but I don’t have to give it another thought now, because I’m through with it. Yup. I have nothing to do with Slam Dunk anymore, and I will not continue any of my Slam Dunk fics. End of story.

I have a three-day break before my Math exam (on Monday). I can slack off without any repercussions: I’ll be watching the Bleach movie. I have physics the next Friday, which just so happens to be the 13th. Sounds great, considering I find supposedly unlucky things thrilling. There ends that, I guess.

No more SD. it was a hopeless category from the start. just that i was too dependant on it. bleach is also an excuse to dump the SD category. XD
