Mel, what did you tell your kindred? Argh, I feel betrayed! Went to Holland Village with a bunch of 1B and 13A people, and ate at Provence, which is a bakery essentially, which very appealing breads. I was freaking tired on the way home, kept dozing off on the bus, but I didn't take a nap when I got home. Instead, I did Economics MCQs! Aren't all of you just so proud of me? Making slow progress though, but I'm going to finish them off before starting on History. Had an epiphany today, and realised that to get a B for History just requires four average essays. I am exceedingly annoyed with my father now. First question when he sees me is "How's your paper?" (Note, it wasn't "How are you?") My response, seeing as I've already been berating myself for making all the same mistakes, is a bland "Okay." Then he starts rambling on about how it should have been great, and when I retort that it wasn't (and I should damn well know since I wrote the bloody answer), his rejoinder is something to the effect that I was lazing about instead of studying. If everyone thinks I bloody have "it", whatever "it" is, could someone explain why after 10 months, I still don't feel the same way? Not all the time at least, not when it matters, like a few hours ago. Oh yes, intellectually speaking, I can see why someone might think I have "it". Precedent can be a compelling thing. Trouble is, it's the feelings that matter more, yeah?
