I think I may have burnt myself out over the weekend from working too hard. The internet was down all weekend, so I had to find other things to keep me occupied. Other than reading Mockingbird like there was no tomorrow, I managed to get all of my immediate homework done. Also made a good step in progressing through my History holiday homework, which continues to bog me down every hour spent on it.

I got my English speech results back today. I didn't do well. I suppose for an extremely last minute job, a 51% isn't that bad. I'm more disappointed that my manner during the speech didn't grab me anymore marks than I had received. I really thought I spoke well.

Somehow, the thought of how important the HSC is and how well I have to do and not screw all these assessment tasks up - it's completely absent from my mind. I'm just not focused right now. I'm so tired, and the next 3 weeks are already looking very busy.

Tonight was heaps productive. Hah! I answered one question from the Guide to reading Masselos: India's Freedom handout, and wrote the number "2" in the margin. I also sat there staring at the table for a good 15 minutes, aimlessly. Sigh. I desperately need to read Wuthering Heights or I'm going to fail the next English task.

I have soccer training tomorrow. That means waking up at 6.30 in the morning, rushing down breakfast and to Queens Park in the icy cold morning weather in my soccer boots, and 45 minutes later, running back up the hill to school and rushing myself through the shower and into tutor group in 10-15 minutes. I hate this.

It's times like these when I question myself: why the hell do I bother putting myself through these things!

Cheers.

PS. Feeling a bit like crap today. I'm going to bed in 20 minutes.

PPS. Atticus Finch is my new hero.

PPPS. Watched Babel. Very good movie.

RAEVILLE came about some time in the year of 2001. or 2002. it's been so long that i've forgotten already.
it all started here (i doubt the link works anymore though), in a dodgy little blog page. then it moved to here. a year later, and we moved to better things, namely blogspot.

ps. raeville is best viewed on mozilla firefox. just because it's better :)
