looking forward to something good
I've been stressed out with my performance in Botany. My friends know how much this has affected me the past few days, particularly last Friday. I'm just lucky that I have such good friends, who knows what would have happened if I was alone at Red Ribbon then. The issue about my parents has been resolved, though there are repercussions. But that's okay.
NSTP last Saturday was all messed up. They had changes made regarding the groupings and the monitors. Good thing that I am still teaching the original student I had. I absolutely adore her and am having no problems at all. Vany was not a part of a group who had other BB students, and we ended up having left her behind.
Midterm marks. We got them after our NSTP activity and it sucks. I already knew my Bi 7 grade so no shock there. What surprised me was my Lit14 grade. I was expecting I'll get a C+ or even a C, but I was given a B. But overall, my performance so far has been not that good. I've got to pull all of my grades up.
I surely hope that this week would be better. I'm looking forward to this week since I'll be getting some stuff from the mail, plus it's ASEC week and there are no long exams/midterms this week! *phew*

I'm being pathetic here.
Brooding about something is not a thing that I usually do. But now, I can't help but do it. Most people would tell me that it's just a grade, and I can always make up for it. If that were any other situation, I could just let it pass and do better next time. This time, there's something different. Our Bi 7 Midterm Advisory Grade is based only on our Long Exam grade, so whatever we got there, that'll be what would be reflected there. And getting a low grade there [in my case] would mean a series of sermons and oh yeah, my parents and I would get into a fight. That's what always happens.
Most of my friends know how much my parents value my academic performance. When I get a low grade, they get angry at me already. How much more if I get a failing grade? I made up my mind to tell them that I did get an "F" in my first Bi 7 exam, before they get the mailed copy of the advisory grade. Question is, how will I tell them?

blogging again
Too much stuff to do, that's basically the reason why I wasn't able to update my blog for like almost half a month already. I've posted occasionally some entries at my LJ, but my LJ entries are friends locked. If you would like me to add you as a friend in LJ, just leave a message at my tagboard or at my latest public post [I'm not sure what date that was].
I never really new what I bargained for when I got Botany as my NatSci. I thought I would enjoy it, and hell was I wrong. I am now regretting that I didn't take up Physics of even Chemistry. If I got any of those two, I don't think I'll be "struggling" like this. But I'm not just about to give up yet. I'm pretty sure that my midterm advisory grade in Botany would suck big time, but there's still enough time to pull it up. I'll just have to learn to make a lot more of sacrifices.
Our 2nd Math Long Exam was today. We had our make up class at Bellarmine 210, 1:30-3:00 pm. For the first time ever, I decided to cut Fil 12 with the others just to be able to review for it. We stayed in the library conference room from 11:30 till 1:10 pm studying [and doing some chit-chat in the long run] for it. The test was not as hard as we thought it would be, it wasn't anything like the problems that Dra. Vistro-Yu gave in the handouts. We actually had smiles in our faces after the exam. Hopefully the midterms next week would be the same.
I've started making a new layout during the break, but I never got around to finish it. So I'll stick with my Okada layout for a while until the next free time I get wherein I'll get the initiative to finish it or make a brand new one.
