Please let me get an A+ for English

I think its the only one that i can achieve ! ):

finally, finally handed in our reports today. it cost us $8plus to print 14 pages, of which 5 are coloured. and $2 to use their computers. printing in school is worse though - it costs $11 to print 5 coloured pages. what is this nonsense, i dont even... Anyway, its printed and handed in and all is good (:

last day of sem 1 today - time passes by really really quickly ! got back our learning journals, and the final grade. FINALLY, something is going right for me ! Though i dont think it'll count for much, but i got an A+ for my learning journal, PLUS simon said i got full marks for all 6 entries. Got him to read the essay i wrote during the reading/writing test on wednesday - and other than me not stating my stand in the intro, he said my essay was either an A/A+. Oh well, I hope everything goes well for the actual exam though - I need all the grades I can get to pull the damn B i got for my presentation up to the A+ i need.
That aside, I still think its unfair that i got a B for presentation. i mean, i may not be fantastic or anything, but she penalised me for lack of eye contact ! and i have friends who read directly from the script, or kept looking at the ceiling getting B/A-. WHERE IS THE JUSTICE IN THIS ?!? even though its been almost 2 months, i still think its unfair. i feel so damn shortchanged ! rahhhhhhhh.

anyway.
went to check out the exam venue today. its right in the racecourse, and you can see the race track through the great big windows. at least i know i wont be bored when i cant do the paper ! but wait. I CANNOT BE LOOKING AT THE HORSES DAMN.
but its a rather long walk, though it shouldnt be that bad i think ? hope the sun is nice to me on the days i have papers !

Bondi rock platform tomorrow !
though why it is scheduled just 2 days before the first paper, i dont know. to top it off, its chem ! which, unfortunately, i seem to be bad at. ah well, jiayou emma !

MAKE YOUR FIRST SEM COUNT ! :D
