New (Old) Music, New Semester, New Project, (And Sadness)!

This is not an extremely detailed post. Should I apologize? Nah, Sunday morning is everyday for all I care.

So, moving on. If you got that little reference up there, you’ll know what I’m gonna talk about in the first part of this post. I’ve heard a lot about Nirvana, and the like, so I decided to give the band a go. All in all, I’ve been looking at a lot of vlogs and Nirvana music this weekend, and I’m in love! AND I’M ALSO VERY INTO THE KURT COBAIN MURDER CONSPIRACY THEORY.

School exams are over, and well. I’m not sure if I’ll be allowed to make up the exams I missed, but I really don’t care anymore. I really cannot be bothered to study for them. With that, I’m sure it is obvious that the second half of the school year has begun. I was very excited for this year, because Human Physiology in biology, and I love all things about the human body. When it comes to biology, that is. Not that I don’t love the human body – god, the fuck am I rambling about? I’m not in a good frame of mind today, my apologies. I woke up feeling nauseous, and I’m just not in the mood today. Lots of weakness and body ache today, too. I’m also kinda excited for English, because English I like, and also because I’ve already finished one of the literature textbooks, and I like the second half better than the first. There’s a poem in the second half that I really, really liked. It’s called The Voice of the Rain, and it’s by Walt Whitman.

What else? I kinda like Organic Chemistry, but I’m sorta scared, too. I don’t know. I’m so not ready for this. In December, I’ll be giving my SATs, and I hope that the exam goes good. I don’t know, I feel like I’m under performing, and I really, really want to do well, because if I don’t, I won’t get into a college of my choice. God knows, I might not get to do what I want to. It’s sad that I’ve fallen into the whole idea that unless I get good grades, go to a good college, I won’t be able to be happy in life. Because that’s not true, is it? Education isn’t everything. But I’m really sad that it has happened to me, and it will probably never go away, because that is just the way I am.

Okay, so I had really hoped that I could make this a quick post. I guess not. Anyway, I’ve decided that not being able to read is detrimental to my health. No, really. I have unread books on my bookshelf, and that is a sin. Or well, pretty close to one. So, to rectify that, I have decided to start reading. Now, I know I will not have a lot of time to pursue reading in between the school year, so I have decided to give myself a week for a book. In order to ensure that I don’t slack off, I am going to write something like a review on here. It’s a personal goal, and I hop that I can keep up with it. Alas, that also means I won’t be able to watch a lot of TV shows like I had initially planned, but that’s okay.

I think I will beg my parents to let me go see my best friend, who goes to boarding school in Kerala (state in India). I am hoping they will allow me, but I am not too sure. I think I will ask for a ticket to go see her as my birthday gift, but I don’t know. I hope they allow me, because I want to go see her in the break we get after final exams, that is for a month before the new session begins. Fingers crossed!

I have been pretty depressed this past week, but I don’t think I will write about it now. One reason is that it is already twelve, and I told my mum I’d be in bed by eleven thirty.

I also got my marks (for the exams I did appear), and they are not very good. I didn’t fail in physics or math, but then again. I already knew I was gonna get okay marks. My marks in English were highest in the class (that is the entire eleventh grade science stream, woohoo), but I still wasn’t satisfied with them. I knew I could do better, but you know? I got lesser than what I expected in Physics, so that’s sad. I got what I expected in Math, so that is okay.

I still feel that I’ll never get where I want to go if these are the marks I get now. The feelings I got on seeing my board exam marks are returning full fledgedly now, and it is doing nothing for my low self esteem. I felt like they mixed my results with someone else’s. Apart from this, I’m missing AN (my sweet best friend in Kerala), also RS, another best friend that moved away (she went away to the Northeast), and things are not too good right now.

mybaes
My bestest friends ever! From left to right, AN, me, RS. Ignore the weird chick in the background.

I wrote her an email she won’t see for another month. That’s how said I am. No internet or computer or mobile allowed in school. Phone calls are allowed, so that’s there. I’m really sad, and yeah.

I think the first book I’m gonna go with is Catcher In The Rye by JD Salinger. I’ve read it before, but I’ve been thinking about rereading it, so that’s the book I’m gonna go with. I really like the book, too.

This is it for tonight.

Buenos noches, amigos y amigas.

Love,
Sky xoxo.

P.S.: I have so many challenges waiting, oh gosh!

Another Day of Studying.

Hey people, how have you all been? The prospect of blogging seems so much more exciting when you pretend that there actually are people who want to read about stuff you do throughout your day. To be honest, I don’t think that’ll be possible in my case. Why? The answer is very simple. My days are very boring. I sleep late, wake up late, laze around the whole day. Anyway.

Today was another uneventful day. I woke up around 9:30. Mom had promised me that I could start learning how to drive a two wheeler. I was very excited. So, as mentioned earlier, I woke up at 9:30. Only to find out that it was being taken for servicing, and since I had woken up late, I would have to wait until tomorrow. Come on, how is that fair? How?! After that, I ate my breakfast. After that was done, I took my medicines, and went back to sleep. Please, I was having such fun dreams before I woke up. So, I decided to slip back into Dreamland.

After that small (read long) nap was done and over with, it was one in the afternoon. I woke up, replied to messages on my phone, saw some TV, and then at two, I took a shower. I had to get ready and eat my lunch, because at three, I had to leave for my classes.

The classes weren’t much as well. The first class was biology. We finished the chapter on Plant Anatomy. Only a small section was left. Types of stele. Our teacher said they weren’t important, but once they had been asked in an exam, so better to study than dismiss it completely. So, then we studied five main types of stele. Stele is basically the arrangement of vascular bundles in plants and the presence and absence of the medulla/pith. There are five main types. Eustele is dicot stem, and Atactostele (I think) is monocot stem. It was an okay lesson. Then we studied biomolecules. That was weird. Our teacher went from explaining about ribosomes to chromosomes, and how the presence or absence of some sex chromosomes give rise to various syndromes. It was interesting, but too much to take in at once.

Then we had physics. We started the lesson on mechanics. It was fun. The teacher who taught us basic math (I don’t think integration and differentiation count as basic math, y’all), and vectors and the chapter on units and dimensions got changed. This new teacher is actually quite nice. His teaching is very easy to understand, and yeah. It was a fun lesson. Chemistry, was okay. We studied isomerism. And the types of isomerism. Organic chem is hard, but I’m slowly getting the hang of it.

Then I cam home, watched a bit of the movie, ‘Something Borrowed’. I like that movie, it’s cute. Then I saw there was crappy food for dinner. I sighed. Took the plate, and came to the room which had my laptop. Then spent time on Facebook, Quotev, YouTube, and on here, reading blogs. I’m still here, though gonna sleep now. It is 00:25 (that’s 25 mins past midnight.

So, goodnight! Or good morning/afternoon/evening, depending on what timezone you guys live in!
XOXO.

First Blog Post.

There are a lot of ways to start blogging, but I suppose being clueless about the whole affair is not one of them.

I suppose I should begin with the customary introduction. But that’s too mainstream, isn’t it? Too predictable. So, we’ll skip that. Simply because I suck at introductions.

This will be my vent, my workplace, my go-to place when I’m bored out of my mind. You’ve been warned.  With that out of the way, I’d like to move on to bigger things.

Just kidding.

My posts can range from super ordinary to super weird. I’d apologize, but I’ve figured there’s nothing wrong with what I want to do. So there.

With this super shitty and super duper short post, I sign off.

XOXO.
