Dear Diary,
Today was the Maths Ext exam. I had actually studied this time, so I was a bit more confident that usual. But I was also more nervous than usually, because I really, really really badly wanted to do well. I couldn't care less about the fact that it's worth 20% of the school assessment (well, maybe a little), I just so badly wanted to show everyone that I could do it. I didn't want to let my parents or my tutor or my teacher down, and I wanted to prove to my friends that I wasn't too dumb to do it, because they're always telling me to drop down to 2u.
So the morning dawned grey and wet and dreary. I love these sorts of days, but the upcoming exam kinda put a dampener on my spirits. Walking to school would have been really fun if I wasn't so nervous.
Actually, when I first opened the paper and looked through all the questions, I though "hey, this isn't so bad, I can do these, I'm actually going to do well this time!" Unfortunately, I didn't go too well at all. Usually I always do terribly because I make the stupidest little mistakes (like, the derivative of 3x is 1/3. I did that twice in one day once...). So today I slowed down in order to avoid that. Which was brilliant, but it also meant that I ran out of time and ended up leaving out an entire question.
So I only did five questions out of six.
Oh, and I also spent twenty minutes on ONE QUESTION. As in, part c) in question 4. It was a fucking bitch of a question, too, and I bet I didn't even end up getting it right.
*sighs*
Well... Eco and Business Studies exams on Monday. I swear, I won't screw those two up. MUST do well in Eco. Must, fucking MUST.
Man... I have to keep reminding myself... this is the HSC, this actually counts. And then I wish I hadn't reminded myself, because it's terribly depressing, not motivating, because I've already DONE the exam.
iohA,
