School's Out. ~ YaaY

The last time I updated, it was just the first week of exams.

Now...

It's finally all over! No more classes, no more screaming teachers, noise polluted halls...for three months at least.

It actually ended yesterday. I didn't go anywhere though - no hangouts or anything. Perhaps it does sound boring, but there was a serene touch to it. I mean, it wasn't boring like how you pictured it. I don't know if it was something about the place or if I was just sleepy. Perhaps it's both. I don't think three hours is long enough. Yeah, I doubt anyone really does.

Today's officially the first day of summer holidays for us here.

Looking back, a lot has happened. But I can still recall the first few days of that school year...kind of like it just happened last week. Maybe that's not how it really is...I just wish it kind of was. Not 'cause of studies though. It was just a point where everything was alright. I mean, it was just the way it's supposed to be. It wasn't perfect nor was it all rainbows and unicorns. It was just full of optimism and hope that no matter what will come my way, it'll still be great.

Perhaps it was just the great summer mood. Last year's summer was pretty memorable in many ways. Well the year was quite a good one. I haven't lost the optimistic attitude though. I still have it. There just doesn't seem to be a direction so far since summer just started even now. But perhaps that's what makes it exciting...?

I'm looking forward to my visit back to my home country.
I won't be there for reports though.

Hm...I have no idea what else to say. But I do have something to say. Just not here, not now. Soon.

Ass.U.Me. ~ what's that all about?

The first week of exams just ended.

Well, not really. I mean, the week did finish, but only two papers are over. Seven more to go. Our exams started on Wednesday. Then came Thursday...so weekend after that. Unlike their schools, our exams last for two weeks.

Now this may seem like a disadvantage compared to those who finish off their exams in three days or in a week, but it's not . The reason is 'cause we have less stress by having an exam for only one day and there are Preparation Day in between. I'm not insulting those schools though. I mean it is great finishing of all the exams within a few days. I'm just saying they're more stressful, but if a student has gone through it for years then they've already adapted. It's not so bad for them as well, I guess.

Our first exam was language. I usually enjoy language exams although I can never really be prepared for it, since the questions are unseen. The first section was okay. But it was the second section of the paper which contained the question I disliked the most and the only one I enjoyed doing. The seen passage we got was the one I liked the least. It was three sides long, so I was all...

"How can it come? That's so impossible. Three sides would be time-consuming to read. Yeah, it'll be to long. That won't come for sure."

Then I saw the paper. *It came! *

"Mrs, you gave me the wrong paper." - I said in my imagination.

I guess that's what you get for assuming. You see,

When you assume. You make an ass out of u and me.

Right, right?

I was mainly the victim though of my own crime. A lesson well learnt for me though.

*attention attention* Quote of the post:

"Learn from others mistakes 'cause life's too short to learn all of them on your own"

Isn't it amazing how we never stop learning? Even if classes are over. Even if school is over. The world's wonderfully complex like that.
