Tales of the Abyss

On Wednesday, i have PE class on the fifth period. The teacher said that we will have a running test on that day. When the teachers were calling out the students numbers that will be tested on that day, my heart was pounding. Unfortunately, my number was called out.

After gathering at the starting point, me and my friends each wore old number clothes on our chest. After some explanatiom from our teacher, we ran at the command of our teacher. I was unlucky because i thought that wearing my sports shoe would make my run easier, instead it was worse than wearing my school shoes because my sports shoes were too small now, and that make my feet hurt more. We were tested on running four laps within a certain time limit to pass the test. On the first lap, i have enough stamina to get through it with no problem. The problem starts on the second lap. I started having a little breathing problem and my feet hurts more because of the tight shoes. On the third lap, i was running out of breath and had to walk a distance before increasing my speed again. On the final lap, the routhe feels very very long... At last, i reached the finishing line at 10 minutes and 38 seconds, enough to pass the test. My head feels very dizzy and my legs feel like pudding.I had to rest at a cool spot nearby because the weather was intensely hot. To get to the resting spot, i need to walk a short distance, and under the hot sun, the pain of my legs and stamina-less body, it was like torture. After resting like 10 minutes or so, i went to the back stadium to meet up with my other friends who hadn't been chosen to take the running test. Some of them are still playing volleyball and some are resting under a shady tree. I went under the tree and sat on a marble chair while chatting with them. I then went back to class with sore feet and relieved after taking of the tight sports shoes.

Yesterday was the first day of the standardised test, and it was Chinese and Geometry. I studied hard with my friends in the morning but i still dozed off. After finishing the Chinese test, i went and revise Geometry's methods of solving questions. During the Geometry test, which was the fifth period, i did the first few questions without any difficulties, until the final question, which is the fourth one. After passing up the papers, i went to check with my friends. It turns out that i did one of the mini questions on the final question wrongly, thus resulting wrong answers in the other mini questions, haiz...

Today the test was on Malay and History(chinese), but me and my friends mostly concentrate on History first because there are more things to remember. After spending an hoyr or so, we turned to revised malay because there are some usage of words that are very confusing. When there is still somemore spare time, we resume revising History. On the second and third period is the Malay test, and the first few question frightened me because all the words to choose made me totally clueless. At last the question in the middle part is easier. After that, i finnaly finished it during the third period. After recess, i stayed in class to revise the History further with my friends. After 40 minutes of hard revising, it was time for the test. After the paper was handed out, i found that the questions in the first section was kind of easy thanks to the revisions, although i got a few names wrong when i discuss with my friends after the test.Overall, i got most of the answers in the History test right. The sixth period was Malay, so the teacher came in and discussed the test answers with us. During the discussion, we made a lot of arguing noises, which i thought was very fun because everybody in the class laughed. After the discussion, I only got 20/40 in the first part, not too bad because i will have to wait for the second part: ringkasan result to add to my total marks.

Well, that's it for today. Wish me luck on the tests!!!
