Sleep with one eye open

Well, i abandoned my study plans for the day for something which transcends even that: Toy Story 3! :D i don't want to spoil the plot for those who haven't seen it yet, but i do have to say that it is a MUST-WATCH for anyone who watched 1 and 2. and it's not just the movie which was awesome; although the Pixar shorts before all the movies are often overshadowed by the actual movies, i felt that this particular short, Day and Night, was particularly good. even if it's just a small plus, it's still an extra incentive to go catch this amazing, amazing film. so go catch it.

i mean it. why are you still sitting there? GO WATCH IT NOW. NOW NOW NOW.

so anyway, after the movie we came back home and i attempted the 2009 H3 maths common test as part of my revision, and let's just say it was completely within my expectations. i really need to buck up for H3 maths right now; i'm not even coping at a H2 level, let alone living up to being a H3 student. that feeling when people expect you to achieve greatness, even though you are far from extraordinary, is such a choking sensation. maybe i brought it upon myself by biting off more than i could chew; is it really worth it to choke on ambrosia rather than survive on gruel? this gamble to focus on H3 instead of H2; it's like playing russian roulette with a revolver that's only missing one round.

here's another Metallica song called Enter Sandman. if you think of the sandman as my growing fear and dread of the looming exams, then this song describes me perfectly:


study plans resume later today, but it seems like an exercise in futility.

And the wheel keeps spinning... How I wish it would spin forever...
