i think everyone's feeling a whole lot better after the eoys. that is, everyone other than the pure art people, the pure music people, the pure physical education people, pure english literature people, the pure chinese literature people, the elective english literature people and the elective chinese literature people. Fortuneately or unfortuneately, I happen to fall under one of these categories.
everyone's running off from school to play LAN. nothing atypical. even shawn tan running off with them to play LAN despite the fact that his pure music paper is tomorrow is nothing atypical.
his mom smsed me a few hours ago asking me, with a distinctly assertive tone, which LAN branch he goes to.
somehow i don't feel motivated to answer.
it's none of my business anyway, so why should i care.
i nearly had a heart infarct (in-fck!) today near the end of the bio paper.
i realised that i left out ANSWER BOOKLET A when the invigilator gave the pens-down call.
i swore out loud. fortuneately or unfortunately, he didn't hear me.
that would mean 3 qns, 25 marks, and A1, even a pass, out of the window.
like spider-man's ring, bouncing on the street and rolling towards a sewer grating. no web to stop its movement. no nothing.
25 marks gone to nothing. no nothing.
i really felt like bursting into tears at that point of time. I screamed at random people and screamed fck! until i zao xia at the end of the paper. the invigilator was still there, and he gave me that wtf look.
and the worst thing was, lok lam said BEST when i mentioned it to him.
my friend. i wanted you to console me.
Like jasper, i was cold and hungry during the amaths paper. i skipped recess to revise binomial theorem together with kuan hoe. i didn't regret it much, but still, i could hear my stomach practically growling through the whole paper.
anyway, i felt really frustrated when i got home, 'cause i couldn't play kiss the rain properly. to me, when it's played nicely. despite the occasional slips and screw-ups, there seems to be a calming effect, and it's highly satisfying - the A-major chord at the end really sends that feeling of peace into your heart.
Yiruma is a great composer and a great pianist. really. if i can, it'll be bliss to play through Kiss The Rain with emotion and without mistakes. you'd feel the peace.
so i can't cure my heart with art, unlike illness with medicine. so i tried playing river flows in you. i played it smoothly but ended up feeling more tormented than ever (not saying that it's not a great piece though).
I have to study lit now. update when i have the time.
hcl people, all the way for o-level chinese. cheer up, we're all in this together!
bye.
Oh. and peiqi. sorry for being an ass.
