holidays.
it's been a while since the last paper of a levels. the last of many i've sat under cambridge university. apart from class farewell, cgssb's 40th anniversary concert, my mom's visit with grandma in the philippines, st andrew's alumni practice, picking up rollerblading, my brother's stint at the hospital to remove part of his intestine,...
apart from all that,
the holidays have been quite uneventful so far.
HAHA. i'm kidding. i'm not asking for anything more.
hmm.
i miss studying; i miss cramming.
the feeling of getting our brains saturated, the jittery nerves we'd get just before each paper.
at least studying's only going to get more intense when we get into university. it's sad, though, that we're going to have to wait 9 months before we belong to an institution again. at this point, stuck between two dispensations of life, belonging nowhere, i'm feeling a little strange.
up till now, we have moved easily up from one school to another, not having to adapt to new social circles very often. always having a place to go to each day and even getting scolded if we skipped a day at that place. i've grown attached to that cycle. it got monotonous towards the end, and i thought i couldn't wait to break away from it. but i was wrong. i need a place to belong to. all of us do.
i signed up for SAT 2 a few hours ago. after watching a day's worth of goong. haha. i'm getting so bad at studying. my study table looked more appealing in the west. but living in the east now, i know i should stop trying to study at the airport at every opportunity and getting distracted by take-off and landings. and that i should just adapt to the new study table.
whatever. i'm talking nonsense again.
i've successfully picked up the basics of hangul in a week. HAHAHAHA.
i thought i was smart for a few minutes, then i realised my iq score was just 133. :(
actor kim jeung hoon can get an iq score of 146. i'm a student. i study for a living. and 133.. argh fjgsdklfda. going to start boosting my brain power with omega3 fatty acids and ginko buliba.
who says one can't improve their iq? just watch.
you may age into a skeleton while watching, but just watch.
i wonder how it feels like to be an inspiration to somebody.
can a person get hooked on the smell of vicks?
manitoba or toronto?
local or overseas?
hmm.
