Friday, June 06, 2003 it's folio day !! i'm so excited. yet nervous .. it's this same weird feeling i got in my belly when my o level results came out. no wait .. bad comparison .. when did my belly feel this bad .. um .. oh. during mid-semester folio submission. and the time our coordinator slammed the door and threw a tantrum. ya. oh. and also when my o level results came out. and also when i started my math papers.
so anyway. things to do in the immediate future (in chronological order):
1) go to the bathroom
2) make sure i have all my stuff
3) double check
4) fill my car up with petrol
5) go get linda
6) go to uni !!
wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee *hops around*
but i'm nervous. it's quite silly, but i really want to do better than adit at folio. i mean .. it's the only thing i think i can get a higher mark than he can. quite sad really.
