Plethora of tests

Yes, it's a "plethora" of tests presently. This week is swarmed with tests, both tomorrow and on friday. Tomorrow's tests include biology olympiad practice round and also french preliminary exam, written paper. Sigh. Even though I know I'll probably do ok for my written paper since there's a good 2 hours 45 minutes to complete the paper which we usually do in 2 hours, I still need to squeeze all the marks out of my comprehension and my essay. We went through the cloze passages in class today and by golly! I made so many mistakes it was bruising my ego! =(( But oh well. That's my weakest section...so I'll have to mug up on all the closures that I've done over the past year. ARGH. And biology olympiad. What can I say. I've only made sense of immunology!!

Today passed relatively quickly. Must have been the multitude of air-conditioned venues we managed to have our tutorials in. Don't belittle the power of the AIR-CONDITIONER. *in a evil Sauron-like voice* It was sweltering hot today and it didn't help the least bit that it was combined assembly today at the school-next-door. *rolls eyes* Spent a good twenty minutes cooking myself under the boiling morning sun. The rest of the day was unbearably ovenlike too. I was perspiring like there was no tomorrow even as I was walking from one lecture theatre to the other. Beat that. By the time it was 5.20pm, I was already doused in my disgustingly foul-smelling perspiration. If only I had known, I would have brought a change of clothes!! Ugh. Had to tolerate the icky stickiness the entire day. Yucks.

That being said, it's a half day on Wednesday and a full day holiday on Thursday! That's great! Hark, all who would listen! T'is a blessed time to pull up your pungent and soggy socks and mug up hard for the promotional exams, which will mark the start of the reign on hell in a month. You have been warned.

Well said, David.
