September 30th
Wow!! It's already been one month... and 6 weeks left till the mocks!! That is so stressing!!!
On Monday nothing much happened, it was the usual but surprisingly, the 2 friends didn't talk about their day out so I was kinda glad. Also, I was really close to being late as I wanted to reduce any time of interaction I could have with them but it was all in vain at the end. And also, I don't understand why my Monday Science teacher doesn't understand me when I try to correct him but he understands others.... like am I not clear enough or are you just ignoring me??
On Tuesday, we had Maths homework and I forgot but fortunately I didn't get any detention and miss has just let me do it during the correction of the paper. Science was kinda interesting though: I found out that the 2 friends just attended a party to celebrate their volunteering to some local libraries and that my Science friend also attended it. Okay, at this point, I had mixed feelings: I was glad that they didn't just go out and intentionally left me out, but I was also kind of disappointed that they didn't tell me that they applied to volunteer but they kept it between them. The same exact thing happened when the school had opened the submissions for being part of the school council and the student leadership team. They didn't tell me they would apply, they kept it a secret, and I understand that I wasn't really close to them at that time, but they could still have left a few hints or something.
Maybe this is a sign for me to stop caring about what people do and start acting on my own because I usually do something when I am certain that there will be someone else who I am comfortable with so that I have a sense of security. But if no one ever tells me anything, I guess the only solution is to pay back with the same coin: silence and secret.
On Wednesday, we had half day as open evening would take place later. It's embarrassing to say but I was soooo scared for it. But not for the reason most people would be scared for; I was scared because I didn't know who I would be guiding the kids with. I mean, talking to kids and parents can be scary, sure, but it's not THAT scary. Last year it wasn't, it was pretty fun to say the least. But that was because I had someone who I was comfortable with, if I didn't have someone I knew, it'd have been super duper difficult. Luckily, I think, I was with one of the two friends, the other one was specialized in talking about a particular subject so I guess I was safe? Well.... No, not all.
Both of us are pretty much introverted but I can talk when I need to but I will sound emotionless and probably look like I don't care but the other tour guide barely spoke and I had to do all the talking. Personally speaking, if I had some guides like ourselves, I wouldn't like it but I guess the family had already decided to send their child to this school so it was fine, the school can't blame me if they have one less student!! And they left pretty quickly, which meant we had to line up and wait for another family to come and guide them! But the line was too long and the people in front didn't even get a family yet!!
So... we waited for a few minutes and realized that it wasn't worth it so we started running around the school, having the time of our life. Or rather, I was running around and having the time of my life while the other girl was just walking fast after me, constantly complaining that she wanted to go back to IT to talk to her other friend. But I hope she had her share of fun as well.
After running around the corridors and waving at all the cameras, we went to the PE department where they held archery. Last year, I wanted to try but the girl who I was guiding with didn't let me; this year though, there is nothing and no one who can stop me from playing. I was kinda bad at the start, like I could only hit the red or blue part but not the bull's eye (yellow part). I let the other girl do it, while I was helping the PE department by letting the parents and the children have a go at archery. After helping for a while, I tried again and again and again.... And I have finally hit the bull's eye!!!!! I was so happy that I was jumping around like a joyful child!! There was also one student who was like: "I've never seen you this happy before!!"
During this rush of happiness and accomplishment, I tried again but the arrow literally fell in front of my feet... I guess evil eye hurts really bad....
After that, we went to the art department and started drawing and soon the other girl joined us as well and few minutes later, she and the friend I was with left without telling me but I noticed soon enough to catch up to them!!!
Okee I have finished my time for today, I will finish telling the story tomorrow!!
I genuinely liked this week, it was something worth remembering!!!
October 1st
Yeah, and then we went to the IT department to get her stuff and on the way down, I was jumping down the stairs.... like 8-10 stairs at a time... but I also tried to jump an entire flight of stairs and I landed the way I've learned when jumping from high which is basically like a frog, and now, the two of them are making fun of me, saying that I fell when I actually didn't.
And that is a summary of my open evening!! It was GREAT!!!
Now, after coming home, I didn't really have homework except revising for the Maths test, but the subject leader said that it was not really important to get high marks as it was the first exam skills test of the year so I didn't bother studying... So guess what I did??
I WATCHED BUNGO STRAY DOGS 5!!!!
Or rather finished watching, I only had 8 episodes left...
And God have I cried!!! The last episode was sooooo sad and heartbraking!!! It's when you realize that the villain wasn't bad to start with, he was doing what he was doing for the greater benefit!!! But he died at the end...
You have to watch, everyone has to watch it. IT'S SO GOOD!!
The last episode was just so emotional that there was a flood in my room!! You better prepare tissues if you watch it!!
And the days after this, I was sick. Crying was not good and my body was aching all over coz of the open evening.
So, to conclude, week 4 is the best week so far! Gonna keep it in my memories for ever!!!
