HELLO!!!
Yes, I haven't posted since the start of school, so here I am.
Had a genetics test today...was a bit screwed, cos I switched question halfway cos I realised the question I was doing wasn't as easy as I thought...probably cos I didn't really have the time to put much thought into that journal paper. I switched...so everything was pretty okay until the last part, I was trying so hard to remember where I saw the information in the midst of the 12 pages of research accounts and diagrams...I actually missed one whole part and I only saw it at the end. oh well...it wouldn't really be the first time I messed up a CA.
For the CNY break...it was just pretty much exhausting...sitting in the car for hours to get from place to place. My butt hurt so much, must have gotten lousy due to the lack of long road trips for a while. Went to the usual places again...my dad side to see people we don't see for like 364 days a year and back to my mum's side. After which everyone from my mum's side came down to spend 4 days here.
The house was just super noisy...mmmm...noisy has bad connotations...maybe FULL? There was just people everywhere, so full of chatter...it was a bit noisy...like somehow the old people voices resonant from one part of the house to the other without the sound waves loosing any energy whatsoever. People hardly went out...so it was just pretty much saturated with people most of the time. It had its good points as well, so it wasn't that bad. Everyone then headed back yesterday, so the house is much quieter now.
Tommorrow's Valentines day, the day everyone complains is too commercialised and that all the businesses out there are capitilising on it to make some extra profit on this supposed celebration of love. Not forgetting all those people out there who think "it should be Valentines day EVERYDAY" if you're in a relationship.
Frankly, I'm getting a little irritated by all this complaining. I mean somehow people only seem to complain about Valentines day....what about Christmas? Chinese New Year? Your own birthday? You mean businesses don't capitalise on these special days of the calendar? Like give me a break...everyday should be Valentines day? Then why should we only give presents and all that celebration on a person's birthday? Everyday should be a persons birthday...I guess that either means we give each other presents everyday or since everyday is someones birthday why should any other day be different. I mean...a special day is a special day...it's there for a reason...so people should just relax, cos without them life would just be that much less interesting for all of us...which isn't something we want in this day and age.
