Sick.

[ Friday, October 22, 2010 @ 2:07 AM ]

I feel like a lot has happened since the last update, which is to be expected because your take on life is skewed a little when you're sick. I got back my End-Of-Years results on Tuesday this week, and I scored 6 A's out of a possible 8. Those have since changed from five A1s and one A2 into six A1s, which I'm pretty happy about, needless to say.

However, even with the exams over, I'm still stressing. I cannot express how important transferring to the Express stream has been to me, and with the possibility of that still uncertain I simply cannot relax. I won't delve into the reasons why, lest it complicate matters amongst peers, but it has been a goal I was fixated on for about three years now, and this is my last chance to make it happen, which is a devastating prospect. Life won't end if I don't get what I want, but I'll sure as hell need a good and proper pick-me-up after - that, and a new goal.

The situation now is that of the requirements for lateral transfer to Express. I've been assured that what I need is an overall percentage of 70%, but now I've been told that I actually have to score 70 on all of my subjects (which means straight A's). I'm still not sure which one it is - all I know is that if it's the former, I'm secured ... But if it's the latter ... well, I'll just need to change my plans. Logical thinking is telling me that the more probable out of the two is the latter, but by God I'm hoping against hope that this, somehow, is not the case.

To add to all that worry, I'm plagued by a swollen throat and all the crap that comes with a period, both of which have come at a really inopportune time - but eh, that's life. I know that this isn't the worst to happen to a person and that there are people who have been throught more suffering - I'm not looking for sympathy, I just need to vent and get my priorities straightened out. I should probably get over this cold first though, before I tackle anything else, and that is what I'm going to do.

On another note, this haze here is getting worse by the day. It's no wonder I'm not the only one to fall sick this season. Bleh.
