Stayed at home the whole day today because I've come down with flu and I had a fever. ): Sucks to be sick... haven't been sick for a few months already, so why must I fall sick the week before BT2?! -.-

I realised that I haven't posted about my piano exam or my piano exam results. Well, my practice was pretty much very inconsistent throughout the whole time I was preparing for the exam, so my technical bits weren't too good. Didn't have enough time to practise everyday. Either that, or I couldn't be bothered to take some time off to practise (which is my fault, I know). Despite my parents' countless warnings that if I didn't practise enough I wouldn't do well for my exam, I still didn't heed their advice. So... now that I've gotten my results back, I'm a little happy and sad at the same time I guess. I got 76/100 for my Trinity Guildehall ATCL Diploma Exam, which is a Pass, but just 4 marks away from Distinction. A lot of people said that I should be happy that I got a Pass, but think about it. If I practised just a little more to improve my technicality, I would have gotten more than a sad 18/30 for that section, compared to the other sections which were all above 20/30. My poor technical skills cost me my distinction. And it's not that my technical abilities are naturally this bad, it's because I didn't practise enough. Damn.

I'm gonna take the next level of Diploma, the LTCL exam. Hopefully I'll be able to achieve a better mark for that exam, whenever it may be, even though it's a higher level. I know I'm capable of achieving a Distinction, if only I tried harder. No point complaining about how SG education makes me have no time to practise or whatever, fact is I have this much time, and I'll just have to manage the time that I have in my hands. I will get a better mark for the LTCL exam. I just hope that the teacher at Music Workshop will reply soon, because my brother texted the administrator a while ago after our exams regarding taking another exam and he still hasn't replied -.-

This time's block tests are gonna kill me. I'm not expecting A1 in Chinese (as usual), Geography, English, Math (that's a rarity), HMP (I think my standards for this subject has been dropping D:), IH. That's everything except sciences -.- But I really hope I'll still be able to get an A1 in Math, albeit a low A1, because it's a double weightage subject! :/ And I've never gotten lower than A1 for sciences before so this time round if I do then... D: Have to keep reminding myself that the scope for studying for EOYs is much larger than this. So if I can't do this now, how am I supposed to survive EOYs? Damn damn damn, Hilary you can do this.

Ugh I'm sneezing non-stop and my nose can't stop running... Hoping that God may heal me in time for BT2! And I pray that He'll give me the strength to carry on mugging too :/
