Jamie said it's hard. So we'll all pass.

Okay, just finished my Lit paper so I'm absolutely no condition to study. I really wonder what my mum is going to say when I tell her that I might end up retaining.

Just like Zoe's post below, I really don't see what's wrong with retaining. You get another year of StAJe, you make new friends, you get more time to brush up on all the topics that you didn't bother paying attention to this year, and you'll be WAY more prepared when it comes to the A Levels. So who cares if you retain?

It'll be just like poly. Minus the fun of skipping lectures, the cheap and much better food, and the hair.

Damn, JC life sucks.

I really don't see what's wrong with retaining, I kinda hope I do actually. I've really done my best with the Maths paper. I've put in hours of practice, memorised all the formulas that they threw at us, but if the paper was too friggin' hard, then it's really not my fault. It kind of stinks when you think of it. You work so hard, and because the teachers went a little nuts, you end up failing.

I managed to do the first bits of my maths paper quite well, in fact, I breezed through them. But by the time I reached the fifth question, woah. Screw you, exam-setter-person. I wish I could condemn you to the lowest level of Hell, where you'll suffer eternal torment and be forced to do meaningless maths questions that have really simple answers. But I'm not that kind of person.

That whole thing in Cat High when I told the piece of paper to burn in Hell was just a phase.

I have much better things to do than to condemn you. Besides, you were just doing your job. Maybe you do it a little too well then.

Luckily, everyone came out saying that it was difficult. Even I Ting looked glum. And she's I Ting. Jamie said it was hard, Nicholas and Nicholas said that it was hard too. Jaclyn and Jolene were convinced about retaining. And Zoe, well, we kinda worked out everyting about retaining, so we're good.

Lit was same-same. I can't reallly differentiate -- Wait, scrap that term -- I can't really tell the difference between this paper and the paper we sat for during out Mid-Years. I expect to pass, even though I didn't really answer the question.

Hey, I'm just looking to pass.

I hope I'll pass my GP. And My Lit. And with moderation, Maths. Then I'll still have one more big, gaping hole to fill up. History? Or Chinese?

History's tough because there's a lot to cover, and Chinese.. Well.. Let's not forget who I am.

I really hope that Zoe and I don't retain. But if that highly-possible scenario does occur, I hope my mum doesn't die from a heart attack.
