Mood: a little tired but fine Fact of the day: event of the week: Doom Week now, and counting down to next week, also known as Yippee Week. Woohoo, I'm less than 2 hours away from my Econs exam, and I'm typing a journal entry! Doesn't this just show how complacent I am? Oops...I've not actually finished studying for that yet, but I'm tired. My brain's already pretty fried, so I think I deserve a break. I'm at work actually, but it's quiet day, so I think I'm gonna have time for my own studying later.
It snowed! And not only did it snow, it's accumulated snow. The last time it snowed, the snow just melted. But this time, the roads, the grass, trees, everywhere is covered by snow. It's kinda disgusting looking right now, cos there's a lot of grey slush around, but last night, it looked great. Undisturbed snow looks really good....as long as I don't have to freeze my butt off at the same time.
And I did..last night, as I walked home from a difficult exam, I wanted to cry again. But not because of the exam, but because it's so freaking cold! When I left the house earlier that day, I didn't expect it to snow, so I guess I was a little underdressed. Baaaddd idea...My jaws were cramping by the time I got home, cos I was gritting my teeth so hard to stop them from chattering. The walk home felt so never-endingly long, and after a while, my legs were on auto-pilot mode to just walk, cos I swear, my conscious mind went into hibernation the minute it saw snow. [which might be why I found my exams yesterday difficult].
It's another cold day today, but fear not, I'm well protected today, by a real huge long winter coat. Sometimes I look like such a wimp when it comes to winter wear, cos I pile clothes on like nothing. But hey, my nose/ears/fingers/butt are precious parts of me, won't want them to suffer too much unnecessarily.
2 out of my 6 final exams are finished, 4 more to go. And out of the 4, 2 are for the engineeirng classes that I'm failing. So I'm really nervous. But I know I can do it. Even if I cannot score an B, I know I can still do my best. These few days, I consider myself pretty much in emergency state, very constructively studying. So I hope this can last till friday, to help me prepare for my final engineering exam. I won't say I'm panicking, but more like just studying as much as I can or feel like it. The good thing about it is, I do feel like studying right now. The motivation is there, cos I know this is my last shot at getting a decent grade, so I want to make it my best shot. Should I still not do well enough, a highly likely retribution for a whole semester of slacking, so be it. At least I won't have regrets for this one last week. Aha.
I sure hope that my efforts will pay, but I don't think I'll want to check my results while I'm on holiday in Japan/Korea. Let's wait till I come back next spring semester.....
