today's papers were tiring. backache after all the straining to complete the papers. the weather has been pretty fine for the whole day. i'm feeling so contented with life, especially after i read half of a good book on the bus - "Choose to be Happy" & it's rather intersting. i learnt a lot. *smile. i had a good nap at my dearie's hse. zzzzZ! we ate noddles + small dumplings + cuttlefish ball + his mama's pork cutlet for dinner. yum. haven't eaten at a dining table for quite a long time. *smiles again.

tomorrow's gonna be another 2 papers. goegraphy is my weakest subject besides social studies. i'll go read through since i've got some time before sleeping time, but i doubt i'll even pass with a C5. it's not that i've no confidence in myself, but it's all true that i suck badly at humanities & it's nearly a fact that i'll have to live with, at least for secondary education. *wink. i'll still be happy (learnt from the book) & contented as long as i can.

the book had something quoted, and i feel it's one of the most useful points.
