Methods sac: done. Chem sac is tomorrow and I think I've prepared myself for it. The only thing I'm worried about right now is literature. The sac is on Thursday and it's the big sac -- it's worth the most marks. It's annoying cos for EVERY English subject, EVERY year.. I never do work on the text. I just slack off in class, jot notes and draw funny pictures of Varsha. Sometimes play fruit slice. I only do work in the few weeks leading up to the sac. Unhealthy, unhealthy! I also find it the hardest subject to improve in. Probably cos I don't take advice very well. "Constructive criticism!"
Oh and there's Eco. But don't get me started on that.
Speaking of which, I downloaded an app of Hamlet notes. I can read them when alone with my phone. I'm efficient!
Better get the gloves on. Come Thursday, I'm going to be pulling a lot of crap out of my ass.

Just can't get enough of you.
Kinder Bueno is possibly the sexiest thing I've ever eaten.
It's light and crispy with a velvety smooth centre.
It cheers me up any day :)
Effective to the macs
Things deleted off my bookmarks toolbar: facebook, blogspot, tumblr, youtube, knowyourmeme, asos, formspring.
It helps because I realised that in the past, when I hop onto my macbook just to google something innocently academic (like the formula for the volume of a cone) just one idle click on any of those seductive links and 2 hours of my time are devoured. Now there are more proper things on my toolbar, like VCE notes, mrwood, UMAT, macrob webmail.
But if I deleted the bad nuggets, why am I on blogspot posting this?
Well, when I open safari the homepage is a grid showing links of all my most visited/top sites. All my top sites are pretty much my bookmarks that I deleted.
I love my macbook.. but it's killing me.

My therapy sessions
Some may not know this, but I've been having therapy sessions.
The impact of VCE has started to hit me. While term one was somewhat easy-sailing, now I'm finding it difficult to keep on top of my work. I'm not happy with the grades I've been getting because I know I can do better. I'm not happy with my lack of focus and organisation skills. I've been feeling so tightly wound up and out-of-school pressures aren't exactly helping my state of mind.
Retail therapy helps to an extent, but at the end of the day those sessions take up valuable time I could have spent catching up on work.
It's my school's fault for giving year 12s the casual clothes privilege.

Queenie. Relapse
I feel lied to. I wouldn't have made this big a deal if it were a white lie, but this had thrown me off before and now it's doing it to me again. After I'd picked it all back up. You can't have it and eat it. Make up or fix up your mind. I have more, but that's all I want to say right now. Just that I don't think I can believe much else that comes out from that mouth.

Things I do when I'm sad
To make me feel better. Sometimes separately, sometimes simultaneously. Just felt like sharing a select few. They can change depending on the type, level and magnitude of the sadness.
1. Listen to more sad songs
Finding songs one can relate to. Preferably emotional ones. Nodding to every line and saying to oneself “that’s so true”, “that’s me!” “yes, I do feel like a plastic bag drifting through the wind”.
3. Curl up in bed
Pulling the blanket over one's head. It's warm and comforting. One may even do number twos during this (as in the second item on the list -- "Cry").
3. Eat
Warm foods on cold days. Junk food generally hits the spot. Decadent ice creams in hot weather. They fill the empty void found in one during times of melancholia.
4. Wash the dishes
Okay, dishwater is dirty and most likely has food scraps floating around in it. One may wear gloves when one does this chore and it protects one from the aforementioned disgusting stuff. But the gloves still let one feel the heat from the warm, soapy dishwater. In a sense, one is effectively having their cake and eating it too.
Furthermore, there’s something calming in the methodical way the dishes get scrubbed, rinsed, and put away. Seeing a clean sink makes one happy.
5. Watch nigahiga/kevjumba
Their short and sweet clips make one's mood lighter by shades.

2. Cry
Letting the water-works “free-fall from your eyes”. It can feel good. Although one preferably does this away from crowded areas and free from the public eye.

6. Online shopping
One finds delight in accruing their collection of material possessions from the comfort of their home. It makes one feel pretty inside.
7. Read FML
By finding delight in the misfortunes of others, one is being economical.
