Xan! My foot's mostly better so prepare! *hobbles over and hugs* Okay, so I'm not at 100% yet. I've been wondering where you were.
N'aww Hope you get better soon Yeah I got a stats test next friday, and an assignment to hand in on monday (Vectors in 2d and 3d Space)
I expect I'll be good as new tomorrow. Right now my main problem is a dull soreness left over from the ordeal and stiffness form not being able to move my foot. Good luck with your tests. I bet you'll do great!
Well I got results from Psychology test. 64%. Decent, considering I had no idea I had the test that day... One night of about 2 hours intense study Algebra, yet to get results, I know I did poorly though. Stats SHOULD be easy, multi-choice, and short answer questions, and seeing as its STATS! its easy And the assignment is just a weekly thing I have to do, like 5 questions based on whwat we learned in the weeks lectures. Vectors are quite easy and fun really, but I love a lot of maths so go figure
Tests *Blech* I have chosen the GCSE I am going to take ready... Here they are for anyone who cares: Maths, Science, English, PE, IT, Music
The smart people at my High School did some IGCSE. Especially Maths English, and the sciences. Particularly Chem and Phys. I did IGCSE Maths in Year 12. Work.. Student Allowance yay~! I only get $136/week, but that only like $20 less than what my friend gets and he's working part time at a supermarket
My 12th year was...a bit of a bumpy ride for me. I suffered through a couple of mental breakdowns primarily revolving around my English class and my total, 100% inability to analyze a poem or piece of literature. We had a weekly timed essay analyzing a poem. An essay every goddamned week. My inability and anxiety were such that I would end up staring at the poem, unable to even makes sense of what was written. Eventually I learned that I would be unable to do it, so I just wrote nothing. Got a 0 every week. My dad, who is divorced from my mom and as such lives apart from us, rather than offering advice or encouragement, just went on a rant of how terribly I was doing in the class and his final word on the matter was simply: "Do better." That caused a wound in our relationship that took years to heal, and I still haven't completely forgiven him. Then we had to do a research paper about something. I didn't finish in time, and my teacher was gracious enough to give me another week. With the help of my brother and his wife, I was able to complete it. I worked harder on this thing than any other assignment ever. I got a 60, and my teacher said I was lucky not to get lower, considering it was only 6 pages long and the assigned length was 15 pages. This was the final nail in the coffin that eternally shattered any confidence I had, have, or ever will have in my ability to do anything related to literature. This anxiety also affected my other classes. Due to my low self-esteem, I never paid any attention in economics, and I ended up failing that. I failed psychology too, but that was mainly because I didn't do the project we were assigned, primarily due to my complete lack of confidence of being able to do it alone (it was supposed to be a gorup project, but I had no partner). Meanwhile, in Calculus, I had the absolute best grades in the whole class and even got an award from the school for my accomplishments there. I also aced Music, Political Science, and Law.
Sorry to hear all that Yami *hugs* My life spiraled into hell more into year 13. I mean i was unwarily depressed since year 9 or 10, but year 13... FML
*Hugs back* I got the last laugh with psychology. I may have failed the class, but I passed the AP test and got college credit for the class. I had to go to summer school for failing economics and English. My god but everyone there was pants-on-head retarded. The classes were so dumbed down that I almost literally paid not a single second of attention to either economics or English. Instead, I was busy teaching myself to speak, read, and write Japanese. I aced both summer school classes without even trying. I really shouldn't still be up. I'm going to go to bed. Good night all!
