Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

So, today was a happy day.
Yesterday, I had gone to the library to study, same with last Friday.

However, it was today, a Tuesday that I felt...alive and all-powerful! Like yea!
I got to the library at around 11am, cause my sister was lagging after 2 weeks of not searching her wardrobe...so took her some time to find something (in the end she wore a mini-skirt and her school shirt (no emblem though, thank god). xD )

Anyways, as always, my sister can't keep still and was the loudest (yet on the street she would have been the quitest) in the library.
I started with 4U maths, as always.

And I did alot! I finished one set, 3 to go. Finished another set, 2 to go. I had to eventually check out an Extension 1 book "Maths in Focus: Extension" which REALLY helped me with understanding Binomial Theorom (which I had to use for the fourth set of the topic, Polynomials 4U ).
I sort of get the general jest of it all. Very interesting once you actually concentrate on it, and push yourself to try to understand the formulas and how to derive them.

That's what's so good about the library. You can't just go to sleep (though my sister did). At home, once I stumble upon something I don't get, if I don't get it in the next 2 minutes, I'd give up and go to sleep, get something to eat/drink, watch some TV or go exercise (usually going to sleep though); and I waste around 3-6hrs (cause my alarm clock only wakes me up, before I drift off again).

Anyways, between it at around 2pm till 4:30pm, I spent the time searching for information for my case study on China for Economics. GOD did I find a lot of VERY USEFUL and categorized information.
VERY NICE! I started off with 37 pages out of the two huge books that I wanted to print out. However, the price of one page is 20c, and I didn't have enough money so I reduced it down...then reduced it down...and down...until I ended up with around...12-15 pages. ^___^
Used $7, so that's 14 pages. ^___^ OF VERY USEFUL information. For the other pages, I'll be manually jotting down statistics and what-not. I really like the sophisticated wording of these books. Very nice and will get good marks.

When I got back home at around 7:30pm (even though the library closes at 9:30pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays); I watched the last bit of Memoirs of a Geisha on DVD (from China!). It was...boring.
And disturbing too. The American soldiers are...evil. When I read about American soldiers getting prostitutes and what-not in Korea, I was disgusted.
When I watched this, I was disgusted too; both at the women who were overly flirtatous, and the American men.
I had enough once the geisha...okay. I won't ruin it. Let's just say if those American soldiers were really like that...then...they digust me (and hey, the Abu Graib Prison scandal doesn't really help their image either, yea? ).
Then again, I know the Japanese were worse when they invaded Manchuria (China) . Evil Japanese soldiers. That's what happens when you don't have live broadcasting and camera crews making sure that those people keep in line. And that's why you need the law, and law-enforcers.
If you didn't have the law or law-enforcers, it would be worse than what Japanese soldiers did to Manchurian men and (espicially) women. I'd feel EXTREMELY sorry for women, and some men.

So yes. I've decided that as a 'rest' during night-time, I'll go on Gaia to write my journal entries, until somebody can make me a personal blog. If it has to be on Blogger.com, then at least make a really spiffy layout (because Blogger rocks, as it allows any type of layout).

I'll also be back-tracking (ooh, Backattack, RO BGM! ) SS posts up to 10 pages since the last poster posted.
Good thing that most of the time, SS doesn't manage much.

w007! I've planned it all out and I've realised that completing all of my 4U topics needed for the next assessment block before Term 1 starts is possible. Plus, finishing all of the Economics till Chapter 5 and revising as well as completing the next Module of Chemistry will be easy. And reading one book for English is extremely simple and easy (since I've already read and analysed all the other text...two years ago. ^^;; ).

So yes. ^___^ I'm so happy! Everything is within sight!
The only reason why I didn't go well in my last exam was because I was still bludging. I didn't study intensively and properly. This time, I AM! ^,^

And for my jersey...I'm still thinking of a name. I thought, nothing fancy.
Maybe: "Shen"
"Darek Khort"
"Khortie"
"Shenie"
"Shen Shen"
"Darek"
"T3h B34r!"
"Derukureetsu"
"Deruku"
"Deru"
"Reetsu"
"Deruku Reetsu"
"Boo"

Anybody got any name suggestions? Come on people. xD I need help y0!

And OH MY GOD! I've only got around 9-10 months left until I finally finish school. I don't believe it! I just CAN'T wait! ^,^

Happy happy happy happy, bum-whee! whee

Oh yea! And these last few days I've been developing and fixing the last touches to a new hairstyle! It makes me look...younger (even though I already look much younger than most for my age); but...more mature! (somehow!)
w007!
