Life then, life nowadays

I forgot to say yesterday...
I changed my skin! rawr...Im very lousy at these things, so fortunately, it worked! hahaha. I also saw Mansfield peeps at State Library...Mareanie, Belinda and ... the Frenchies(I think), were studying for Biology. Connie and I wandered up to 3rd level to look for a meeting room but ended OUTSIDE their meeting room. huh. Greeted with usual hugs but it was kind of awkward. Firstly because when it was their turn to ask us what we were there for, answer was Theory of Knowledge presentation. That left them quite clueless but weirdly 1 of them immediately responded with "we'll just nod and don't ask questions". At that point I haven't said anything to suggest I was superior did I? lol. I don't know, maybe that's the reason why I haven't talked to Mansfield peeps for so long, since I transferred. I haven't gone back to visit my friends or had some kind of get together. I remember going back during holidays with my brother to sell his uniform prior to his school year at QA. I saw Annice and we briefly said hi. I saw Joanne but wasn't sure if she noticed me or not. Either way it's not their fault things are awkward. After all Im still a not totally sociable person haha.

Today;
I hate carrying my 'official' Targus school bag which cost $95 and can fit my tablet in super bulky case, my books, lunch everything. But thats why its so heavy and I practically can't stand straight with it most of the time. So since exam block its been smaller totes. Now, back to the normal school day schedule its totally killing my shoulder! Its all about protecting my tablet after all. Its not really mine, its rented from the school. If it crashes or is damaged, its my responsibility though. The screen's been flickering occasionally, and also quite frequently. Apparently random spasms of the screen means the harddrive/screen is going to crash and I could possibly lose all my stuff! = no computer to use = catastrophe!! Must be a result of throwing my school bag down on to the ground too many times, resulting in some form of 'shock' to the tablet, and also the fact that I use it 24/7, its life-span is considerably shortened:/ Ok tablet, i havent treated you too well but don't just die on me PLEASE!
I don't know what's wrong with my mobile number either, I always get random calls from people whom I don't have a clue. I don't usually answer calls which I don't recognize the numbers anyway. Can you believe it how many Sydney people call Queensland mobiles and get the phone number wrong? Seems like people here have these problems on almost any phone line possible. gosh.

Time to do as much UMAT drills as possible. gah. Im so determined to do dentistry I must not complain about UMAT and other academic stuff to sort out during my 2 week hols! Btw, holidays coming up next week for 2 weeks! Obviously cannot go back to Singapore though ): or anywhere else in fact --> holiday homework Mt. I.BEverest, CAS (signing for 4hrs coaching of badminton once per week for 3 weeks to deal with my CAS hours - almost once and for all), UMAT practice and helping out occasionally with the Kids Klub children's camp thing at church 2nd week. I actually don't think I'll mind the last, even though Im not particulary experienced. I think it'd be so much better/more fun then poking around a tablet just trying to eat up my homework. Well, my homework is more like whatever revision Ive piled up in a schedule for myself. Oh why am I killing myself. *personal dilemma* but the teachers don't care and it'll be my own fault for not doing anything in the end. and I say Im aiming for dentistry and an IB41+. ohmygosh *swoons*
omgomg I JUST TYPED SO MUCH?? SERIOUS! TIME TO UMAT. WAIT I SAID THAT A PARAGRAPH AGO.
