I didn't do as badly in English as I had suspected. My situational writing was terrible as usual, only scored 19.5/30.

YES, 19.5. OH THE HORROR. Half a mark from getting 20! HALF A MARK!!!!!

Hang on...are those rocks in the hands of my classmates? WTH, there're even cannons from the china students! RUUNNNN!

Never mind. NIXYI, YOU UNDERSTAND MY PAIN RIGHT?!

My essay was ok. 'Kyya'-ed away (even though due to my handwriting, 'mires' looked like 'mines'). My comprehension was a fiasco though. I was immensly disappointed by my marks. I had dropped from getting 30+ to 20+ *pouts in corner of woe, growing mushrooms from tears and inky black aura drifts over like a swamp*

Le sigh.

I think on overall I got an A2 for the end of year paper, counting 5 marks for corrections. Gang gang hao hit only.

Never mind, I had (sorta) lived up to my goal!

Now, it's lit, math and chinese (jue wang le, jue wang le).

Now going onto Yahoo account to check marks. Palpitating heart. Typos.

OMG I DON'T DARE TO SEE!

Hang on hang on... THERE'S NO MARKS! WTH. Nevermind.

I shouldn't do too badly for Math. Besides, why talk about the results? It's time to play!

Speaking of which, TODAY I BOUGHT A SPANKING NEW HANDBAG from the pasar malam. $19 only.

And it's so friggin' nice, I am going to take it to school tomorrow instead of my usual horrible pink converse bag.

It even has a crown. Like, the royal crown of Queen Elizabeth. Women in power. I like that. And it's cream, and expresses my want for luxury and spendor (if not for the sparkly fake diamonds). Luxuriant material, with ruffles. Fashionable, and casual with an edge. Stands out.

WHO CARES IF IT'S A FAKE, AND NOT A BRANDED BAG. As long as it looks nice, I don't give a damn.

Sure, it may be a little mature for my age (I am still younger than most of you OLD 14-yrs people...hang on, my birthday passed, so I'm 14...) but my taste in things is always mature. From shoes to acessories to clothes and how I dress, I looks like I'm 16. Which, in my own opinion, is good because hopefully I can sneak into a NC16 show (which has lovely gore scenes and rape and a little porn and whatever 16-year-olds can watch). Plus, people treat you with more respect and reverence if you are older. For example, salespeople are more friendly towards you (especially if you look rich enough to buy their products).

One quibble I have about growing up, aside from responsibilities, is shoes. The (fashionable) shoes we CAN wear at this age are frigging annoying. High heels, ballet shoes, these are UNCOMFORTABLE to walk in and a living torture for your innocent appendages. They spoil easily and you can't run in them, nor can it be used as a weapon (unless you want to stick the heel in an eye of whack a cockroach). It always grasps the toes and puts pressure on it, as well as the back of the heel, with painful welts. So in short, I hate heels and ballete shoes. Why aren't stores selling those nice, comfy, (ex-)fashionable boots?

I love boots. Easy to walk in like normal shoes, no need for socks, good for striding through rain ad mud (unless yours happens to be a cheerful yellow or white leather) easy-put on, easy take off, good for kicking ass, you can run in them, and most importantly, it has the benefits of heels except it is more comfy. (YES, since I am a perpetual shortie, height is of utmost importance to me.)

Speaking of which, when I was choosing bags in the pasar malam store, I had an eye on a brown bag with a printed circular logo at the side. It looked big and roomy, as well as casual. Big enough to stuff all my files for Bio and Chem. When I indicated that bag, the auntie said (in chinese):

You are a small-sized person, and that bag is too big for your frame.

I couldn't help but feel insulted.

YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE SCREEN. STOP SNIGGERING OR I WILL JAM MY USED SANITARY PADS IN YOUR MOUTH.

Anyway, I had my eye on another bag at first (a nice, white leather bag which looked very luxurious and gao ji) but the auntie said it was $25. {My reaction: :O Thinks to self: Might as well go to Isetan to buy a branded bag during the clearance sale.} I nearly left, but my eye fell on the other bag described above at the start of this post.

So yup, to sum up this lengthy post, I am happy now, I have my english marks and a new bag. The world is rainy today. Literally, I just looked out of the window and the gloomy clouds overhead seem to disagree with my current happy mood.
