Today was a horrendous day, albeit some good parts. Left the home in tears to escape a domestic dispute today for school, and it permeated my entire being for the remainder of the day. I was already dead inside from exams next week, needless to say, this.
I woke up really early to send in a second draft for my English Advanced assessment on Monday to my teacher, but she didn't even get around to it today!! It's seriously stressing me out because I don't know if my refinements have made it better or worse. She said she'd take a look tomorrow morning, so I'm praying to god she gives me some feedback then. I'm going to write an organic response to the stimulus at hand on the exam day, but I just need to reassurance that my arguments are heading in the right direction ughh.
There was some ancient history excursion today, so our legal class constituted of only 3 people. We did nothing - there was no point to it if the whole class was going to miss it, so we just had a good chat with my teacher about the most random things. From life after high school, ranting about teachers that give one sentence feedback, my experiences of the school mistakenly identifying me as an international student (lol) and the disparities between the two legal classes. It was kinda funny because word had gotten around that my legal teacher had a go at the other legal class for being dumbfounded at the question "Which countries are on the UNSC P5?", and she was explaining to us how she felt like a failure for yelling at them instead of reinforcing the knowledge. Although personally I think it was justified - we've been learning this shit for ages hahaha. Omg my friend asked her if she had started marking our world order assessment task yet and she said she's already halfway!! Then she proceeded to jokingly condemn me for not planning my responses, which I understand why but I had already done a gazillion practice essays at home so it would literally have been a waste of time tbh. It didn't even occur to me until literally just then that, that meant she had finished marking my essay and I didn't even ask how I went hahahaha. Not that I really want to know - but I reckon I definitely broke my streaks of getting 100s in my essays due to the fact that I wasn't able to proofread my response. However, when we were addressing the fact that the school keeps referring to me as an international student, my teacher was like "Have they seen your essays??!!", so I'm trying to reassure myself that this random assertion might potentially mean a good outcome lol. Just having that chill ass conversation was the highlight of my day tho
I was very efficient in terms of studying though - I got a lot of practice essay paragraphs done for English, and am planning to continue this arduous process over the weekend. I've legit been trying to exert my debilitating personal dilemmas into study hahahaha, but it doesn't seem to be working. I can't wait for next week to be over - mainly just Monday
