Okay, so I didn't blog about this in my last post.
But only because I needed to change, confirm and finalise everything with the teachers.
And I finally did it today.
I GRADUATE WITH 2AS, 3BS AND 1C!!
Okay, so the C is not exactly something to be proud of. When I started out the year, I was a [supposedly] bright sparky student with somewhat unrealistic expectations that I was going to achieve straight As, or at the very least 3As and 3Bs.
But in the end...I think I did pretty alright.
I achieved an A in History and English Literature. [boy, I think we can all see which direction I'm headed in already huh?] Which, okay, maybe not so much of a surprise? They're practically my favourite subjects!
I achieved a B in Discrete Maths, Chemistry and Human Biology. [and Mrs. Ratnam told my mom that I was a science student in year 9? HEH.] I actually believed I was going to get an A for Maths, but I suppose, all things considered, and given the way my maths scores manage to swing up, down, left, right and centre...it's not actually that bad that I've finally gotten a B.
I achieved a C in Political and Legal Studies. Funnily enough, everyone thought I was going to ace this subject because I still wanted to be a journalist at the beginning of this year and would need this for the future. Still...I have never really been that good at completely memorising things, and perhaps this is no wonder that I am not really that good at P&L.
But anywho, That's what I've graduated with. =) Now to hopefully improve on those marks in the TEE...

Graduation Day
It's finally here. =)
And just as it's finally here, so too, are a number of things.
On the 26th of October, Perth finally decided to forward the clock and turn on Daylight Savings time. How gay. =( But I guess it's for a good thing. I have a sneaky suspicion that this is a ploy to make us not wake up on time for our exams, and that it is therefore a test of the "Survival of the Early Birds".
Also happening on the 27th of October are Breast Cancer Day and Deepavali. Soo...good luck to all those with breast cancer and Selamat Hari Deepavali to all Indians!
Graduation was great! It got boring half way through, yes, but aside from that...I thought it was spectacular. Our Star Student was, of course, Peixin Truong. Need we say more? [to any Morley student reading this, it needs no words!] Casey made an amazing speech and Salsano got his opportunity to do an Elvis impersonation on stage.
The Yearbooks which we received in the morning were great! And I gotta say to the Yearbook Committee, THANKS SO MUCH for a great effort and a job well done. =) [yes, I am boasting here slightly, because I'm part of the committee. XD But still] The Graduation Video was also very well done, despite JB's complaints that the video was in fact screwed up slightly. Unfortunately I didn't enjoy it so much, mainly because I wasn't at Morley from the beginning and couldn't really relate to everything I was seeing on the screen, but whatever. JB and Teo have managed to sneakily add me into part of the Year 12 video bit, and after the initial "OMG, is that ME?? At the beginning of the year? What changed? Why'd they add me in???" I was quite happy to see I was still a part of the video. LOL.
So yes, now that the events are over, it's time to get down to work. And pass those exams. Argh. Exams. =_="

Guess who's the odd one out? Urgh, I should've totally been wearing a cheongsam or something...which I unfortunately do not have. Hmmm...make one in KL when I get back!! :D

The Last Day of High School and a Final Tribute to Literature
Well, it's over and done with. Our last day.
I can't say I cried. I never really do anymore. I can't say it was the best thing ever at the end either. I'm not even sure how I feel about it anymore.
Maybe I really am turning into some kind of robot. =/
But graduation's on Monday. I can't wait for that now. :P It feels like the Year 12 Ball again, I can't really bring myself to study. I'm wondering whether I'll actually do well or not now. It's insane what's going through my head at this moment, panicking, yet jumping up and down estatically.
But of course, no one will ever know how I'm feeling. To be honest, I can't describe it either. I can smile, look pretty [or well, play the part, LOL], say that I really am at my wit's end over school finally coming to an end. Truth is, school ends on a continuous basis for me. This is only the final ending. But it doesn't feel any different.
But you know what, I'm going to miss Literature class. And maths to an extent, I guess, mainly because I had to do work in it. XD Despite Mirichlis's jokes and interestingly menacing sense of humour. History was a good class, but only because I was genuinely interested in the subject. If I hated history, it would've probably been a seriously slow class. P&L was a weird class, and Human Bio was pretty slow. Chemistry...let's not even go there. Here's Mirichlis...attempting to move away from JB, but not quite succeeding. :D

I'll miss McInerny's class the most without a doubt. I can't believe I won't be seeing him anymore, and I almost regret not having him earlier. I mean, how many teachers can you honestly say swear without a care in the world, order beer during school field trips and allow you to slack off during class and do other bits of work so long as it's got nothing to do with numbers? All that while maintining the school grades? "Friggin miracle!" as he would say. XD How many tables can you say look like his?
I also went and had a final crack at the school. Although sadly, the teachers that I had hoped would notice it, didn't at all. Never mind, I'll try again on Monday and see if anyone notices. I just hope that Mrs. Fortune doesn't see that, I might be expelled before I can even graduate from school. XD 
Graduation Day soon. I'm gonna make the most of it.

The TCK Alphabet Song
I found this on tckid.com and want to say thank you, right now to the person who found it.
I think I'm going to try to remember this song when I have the time after exams. XD It's ridiculously cute, and I have to have to share it.
Exams are up in a week and a bit, and my Graduation Night is up in 5 days. This is it. It's finally over. I can't believe it's all finally boiling down to an end. New life, new experiences...I just hope I'm ready for it.
Hmm, I notice South Africa is missing...
