and it's over

[NOTE: ooops... i was supposed to have posted this on september 17th.... unfortunately i only just realized i had only saved it as a draft!!!!! gawdd.... i'lll post it now.. it's an old one though.. just before my mock tests were over!! enjoy anyway!! it's nov 6th today but i've left the date of posting as it is!]
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok, finally the exams are over... well, almost. i've an english language paper on monday. but it's not sth we need to study for. so i'm just enjoying the weekend. (bekki, u can skip to the last paragraph... :))

trying to... actually. i downloaded this "Age of Empires III: Starwars" and played it till after 2am yesternight. Then I went to bed without worrying abt waking up early or anything.

then at 7.00 my sister comes to wake me up!!! some fren called! man, was i frustrated! he wanted to know if I could figure out why 'windows' wasn't openin in his comp. HOW WOULD I KNOW?????? i told him to call a freakin comp mechanic or sth. all week long i'd been waitin for this night.. to sleep peacefully for as long as i want!! thanks for ruinin my day! i couldn't get back to sleep and was groggy throughout the day.

though of course, it wasn't exactly his fault. so i couldn't spill my frustrations on him. :( and it isn't really pleasant to have frustrations bottled inside a groggy mind. the frustration just keeps buildin up... and you can't do anything about it other than get even more frustrated... !!

ok, now tht i've let off some of my frustrations, i can continue. oh well, i'm lying a bit here. i did fall asleep sometime in the afternoon. and after tht, my rejuvenated self had a nice chat with a fren. and my spirits are back up again. :)

btw, my exams didn't go too well. but don't be sorry. all my fault. i shoulda been studyin throughout the year, rather than a day before the exams.

done with schoool..... (well almost)

so today we had the last day of classes... officially! mock exams start next week. and after that we'll probably again have a few days of classes to discuss the mock tests... then only the finals remain!!

and on saturday i've a football match against the guys at my former school... and i've to make it to USEF by 12 for the TOEFL test on the same day! it's goin to be fun though... playing with friends i have known since grade 1. i'm a little concerned with the TOEFL however... it's barely two days away and I haven't even checked out the TOEFL prep cd I borrowed from a friend only yesterday.
so much to do... so little time. but i KNOW i'll make it!! win the footie match, ace the TOEFL and get great grades in the mock tests! :) oh i hope so!!

to blog or not to blog... that's not my question

i've had a pretty boring weekend... exams start in little over a week so i did some studying... though not as much as I had initially planned to. i'm a big time slacker i know... i've still some math assignment left that i'm going to try complete right after i post this entry. though i just got myself a graphing calculator so math assignments take lesser time and scratchwork.. :D makes things so much easier.

ok for the next couple of weeks, i'll be a little irregular with my posts owing to my exams. hope you understand. i don't want to be sittin here, weeks later, writing "i spoiled my exams... and i'm really mad. i think it has to do with my spending time on this blog thing... i hate you blog.. goodbye...forever" ... not a pretty scene!!

so adios.. i'm off to work..!

Operation sigma

apologies for not writing in yesternight. maybe that was why i saw a really weird dream last night and i want to write it down before i forget... it's still quite sketchy though.. i tend to forget my dreams rather easily.

I don't remember where exactly the dream begins but after a while..

terrorists were attacking our school and people were sent out to fight.
... (darn i know i'm missing something here!)
and then our principal calls me and says, "Ok, what's your plan? What do you need?" I was, supposedly, the head of our school's 'army'! So i outline to her what we are planning to do and tell her, "We'll be needing one of those night vision glasses. It's pretty dark out there and if we use flashlights, we'll be spotted easily." After some initial hesitance, she agrees. And then sends me off to fight as well. "They've already advanced to stage four and we need to stop them before they reach the 10th," she says. So I head off to fight.

And I'm kinda thinking, oh why did I have to be the head of the squad and risk myself? I might get killed today! But I go ahead and start looking around for terrorists. It's really dark.
Then I'm outside the building and it's not as dark here. I spot a terrorist and start shooting.. he ducks out of sight. I wait... and he reappears. I start shooting again.. he disappears again but i continue shooting and I run out of bullets... i reload... he reappears.. i continue shooting randomly. he falls down dead.
I turn around and see another terrorist and start firing. "stop," he screams, "i'm on your team." ...oh!

i stop and wait while he walks over to me. then we look around together but find no other terrorists. i almost shoot some people, but find out they are all on my team!
finally, someone tells us that the terrorists have been defeated. yaaayyyy!!


one of the guys on my team then talks about our tactics.. "good thing we didn't use night vision glasses, there'd have been misunderstandings since our outfits were so alike!"
i feel stupid. "ok, but i ordered night vision glasses because i thought that might help. let's not mention this to the principal ok?" and i'm thinking... we could have used the glasses too... shoot a bullet or two at whoever you see and if he fires back, keep shooting, if he doesn't, he's on our side!

anyway, we are then in the principal's room, kneeling, as if we were knights come back after defeating a war. the principal comes to me with a sword and touchin it to my head, in true knighting style, says something like, "let thou be..... shadows....." and laughs along with us because we all know she's just kidding with the whole knighting thing.

end of dream... can't help it if it was boring :)
and ..i actually forgot what exactly she said while knighting me.. but it was sth stupid. and the dream doesnt' actually end there.. but i forgot what happened afterwards.
now that i think of it, the whole war thing was like a computer game! no wonder i was so cruel with that glasses theory of mine where you shoot just to see if he's a friend or a foe!! and that stage four thingy!! lol.. i should cut down on games i guess...!

...hope you aren't all confused!!!
that's all folks! ;) hope you guys have a great weekend!
