Damn.

Speech day rehersal
1. I'm receiving a Colours Award for contribution to CCA, and I have no idea why.

2. I've been slacking too hard. I haven't gotten any academic award. (the MC nearly said 'academy award')

3. Because Speech Day is on the same day as the 3rd preliminary round of the Julia-Gabriel debates competition (whatever) thing, I get to miss it in favour of sitting in a freezing room receiving bloody useless medals from boring people while the academic award people get happy kinokuniya vouchers, and read the strange grammar errors on the banner behind the stage to distract myself from the possible 45-minute speeches made by the various boring people. Dignitaries, they're called.

Oh, but this has to take the cake.
4. I left my homework file -- a whole bloody term's worth of work, notes, unfinished worksheets and embarassingly stupid sketches -- SOMEWHERE which I can't remember. My hopes are on that I left it in the auditorium, because then it will at least be relatively easy to retrieve. The same goes for Popular bookstore and Fairprice supermarket, or Cheers at Kalling MRT, all of which I visited on the way home (albeit slightly less so). Unfortunately, if it's the BUS I've left it on, I've got hell to deal with. (It's going to be like that wild goose chase I went on when I discovered my wonderful mounted Chinese painting was missing halfway into my Creative Arts Programme reunion last year. Spent two hours running all over Orchard Road looking for it, and eventually discovering that I'd left it, of all places, in the LIBRARY. Only this time it will probably be enormously worse.)

5. I only realised this fact at 9 p.m., three and a half hours after I arrived home. This arose from the fact that I spent the entire day being half asleep.

In that case, all I can do is have an extremely early night, since there doesn't seem to be any homework that i can do.


Done ranting. Still fuming.

Will not talk about Sports Day, apart from a special mention to my school principal, who really is quite a good sport.
No pun intended.
