Cambridge examiners are screwed up. actually, that's like saying absolute zero is chilly, which is a gross understatement.

so far, another 2 papers have been completed since the last update, namely chem 1 and maths 2. both were pretty unremarkable. for some odd reason, i think i'm affected by exam stress to a greater degree than i was 2 years ago. i made some dumb errors, and thoughts didn't seem to flow smoothly in the exam hall. the stupid thing is, after leaving the hall, i could do most of the questions that stunned me in a minute or less, like that hydrocarbons one for chem. and drawing a probability tree never occured to me while doing stats. amazing. well, as it stands now, i'm predicting either a B or C for maths. it's still too early to say for the other subjects, as i haven't sat for some of them yet.

just 5 more days of exams, and i'm free. thing is, these 5 days are spread over 12 days. it's very...frustrating. next week is going to be the most taxing. three papers in one day isn't really good for health. and i really need to save my econs. now that i've screwed maths up, i can't take any chances with the other subjects.

physics 1 and 2 are next on my list. i suppose it's a bit of a slack subject for me. but i shouldn't get carried away just because of my prelim results. if my AABD were to drop a grade each *touches an entire rainforest's worth of wood*, that would really be quite sucky. so, i won't let that happen.

-random thought of the day: If I get an A for maths, I'll donate $100 to a randomly chosen charity organization. Serious.-
