School Memories... [Day 9]...

Urgh! It's Tuesday. Two Chinese periods after recess and extra school activities. Luckily, my mother agreed to pick me up today and saved me the torture of the extra uniform curriculum activities. This year, the school started the extra curriculum activities early. Usually, these activities will start on the second or third week of school. But never mind, the form 5s will be excused after mid-term, i hope. =)

Today, was pure torture. Haha... My English teacher has taught "Looking for the Rain God", continued from yesterday. This story was actually written by an African. Can't you believe that? Her father was an African, but her mother was an European. This story tells of a family struggling through hard times and how the family succumbs to desperation and resorts to an old tradition, that is to please the Rain God by sacrificing their children. But, in the end, the rain still did not fall. And the children's father and grandfather are sentenced to death for ritual murder. It's scary that what man will do when he is desperate. Man will do anything to get what he needs.

I've trouble in Maths now. I don't understand one of the concepts. Sigh. I need to get it solved soon. This chapter is a sure question in SPM, and this question alone is 12 marks. My history teacher has taught finished the before and after effects of imperialism by the west.

I'm getting all stressed up! School, friends, homework, tuition... I seriously need a way to CALM DOWN!!!

Since you have no choice got to go to school why not you try to change your perspective to make yourself happier going to school. Say....looking forward to school to see somebody that you like(?) or the lessons that you enjoy like English or Sejarah(?). Accept the things that you cannot change and make the best out of it will make you feel better.
