RAEVILLE

Monday, October 15, 2007

Ok, so let's see... We've got 4 days till the HSC. Well, mine at least starts on Thursday with the Japanese Writing exam. Am I panicked? Yes. Yes I am. I still haven't been working as hard as I should be, and I don't know what's wrong with me but it doesn't always seem to register. Instead I'd be watching TV, or playing with my new Etch-a-Sketch which my sister bought for me from New York, or playing the guitar, or... doing things that just count as procrastination really.

I still don't know how I'm going to achieve a UAI of 85, let alone 81 to get into UTS. Many people say that the real HSC is always easier than the trials. I don't know how much of that is true, so I've decided not to rely on that. No one should anyway.

I know this may sound silly, but my mum used to go to this feng-shui guy who used to foresee things for her. I never really believed in that sort of stuff. In 2004, I was in Year 9 and was finishing my final term at AISM as I was going to Sydney the following year. At the end of the year, I received the Year 9 Dux Award, which was just an overall achievement award for the year group. Couple of days after the speech day, the family was having a conversation about some things and my mum had told my sister and I that she was told that we were both going to achieve something great at the end of the year. It was bizarre, and I didn't really know whether it was true or not. But it did happen.

Ever since then I've been wondering if mum knows something about this year. I've been wondering if she was told that I wasn't going to do well, because she keeps rambling to me about how it would be a miracle if I got into UTS. It's not an awfully nice thing to say, if you asked me. Hah, she doesn't even seem to have any hope in me by saying that. But the thing is, I keep having this suspicion that she has been talking to her feng-shui guy and she may have heard something about my future.

Perhaps I'm just worrying too much. I should just get over it and go with the flow.

Mmkay I better be off now. Going back to school to drop off some work for a teacher.

Cheers.

PS. My sister is so nice. She bought me THE original Etch-a-sketch toy and a I ♥ NY tee. She brought back some chocolates too! I had a Butterfinger for the first time, and it was so sweet. I realised that if I lived in America I'd be obese. Oh and she brought back the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly (!! from America) and guess who's featured ------ Daniel Craig! >:D WAHAHAHA. Ok bye.

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 :)
