It's a rebel, bro. :>

I've never been too competitive about SSBB anyways, and I knew I wouldn't make it to the finals. Nevertheless, I still wanted to join the tournament in order to participate more in extra events in the forums. I almost had Sunny in our match, but the lag made my moves predictable and so he was able to beat me by one stock in both the matches.

A few days ago I got only half a message eaten.

Where were I when all of this happened?! D: Actually, I am glad I wasn't here.

I don't participate since my Wi-Fi is horrible. That and I prefer to play games in my room, and I can't move the Wii there since I share it with my brother. That and I can't find Brawl fun for some reason. Maybe it's the fact I have no one to play it with...ever...

Man, I'm sad I missed the Brawl tornumant(Typo). Oh well, I had an awesome time with friends instead!

On the topic of Brawl, I need to start playing it again. I'm also at a crossroad with Brawl, but...
I might start playing it again soon. After I beat Epic Mickey 100%!

...Sup gaiz? o3o Just got back from Disney World.

'Twas pretty fun except the long waits in the park as well as the 15 hour car ride there and back, but oh well. I finished Pokemon Ranger: Guardian Signs on the way back. Also, I broke part of my DS, but it still works. The top right part where the light is broke, so only the left hinge is holding my DS together, along with some nicely working electric tape. Once again, I am amazed at the durability of Nintendo products. :3

Also. I got Japanese candy in Disney World.. And it was WIN. I shall upload pics of the DS and candy later. That is all for now.. xD

Welcome back SK. There is no need to tell us that Disney World is nice. We already know that.

Aha, I did notice you were gone, but I didn't know where you went. Welcome back.

Today is the last day of 2010. We are already going out. I wanted to go to Burj Khalifa where it is going to be celebrated by the first second of 2011, but my parents didn't agree. I will see how I will spend this evening, but yeah, we are already going out in the first place.

I dropped my DS Lite on the cold, hard cement once. The only damage is a single pixel that is always green.

My DS has been thrown more than 10 times and it is still perfectly fine. I love robust equipments.

The new year has just started over here (since it's past midnight already), and the fireworks show at Burj Khalifa was AMAZING. Happy new year to every single person over here! I hope it will be a good year for everyone, and I hope that you all achieve what you want.

Happy new year everybody!

My countries new year (GMT +8) happened about 7 hours and 20 minutes ago. Great party at my friends house. After party was great too, played FIFA 11 till the early morning. At about 6 am (1 hourish ago), instead of sleeping, I just decided to walk to a MacDonalds, have breakfast and walk home.

I hope it is not a bad year although the second day of it is pretty much bad; second term of school starts... Why?!

Yeah, it kinda sucks that school is on Monday. But it actually isn't that bad for me, because all we'll be doing for the next 2 weeks is studying for semester exams and taking them. And fortunately, there are only a couple of them that I'm worried about. I won't have very much homework next week but to study, and then I just have too take 7 tests the next. I believe we also get a 4 day weekend after our exams, AND on Tuesday-Thursday the week of our exams we get out early. Exam week is not so bad after all.

I just finished preparing for tomorrow. It feels so awkward to go to school after such a long holiday.

Well, tomorrow (Sunday) and Monday are not going to be as bad as Tuesday and Wednesday, as we're going to get our mid-year exam papers on these two days. D:

The subjects which I'm really afraid of are English Language, English Literature and Business. It's not the papers themselves that were hard (that's one of the reasons, though not the main one); the teachers are going to be marking them very strictly to prepare us for our external IGCSE exams next year. =/

I feel lucky my school doesn't give exams until the end of the year. Yes, I know that's really odd so don't ask why they do it because I don't know. Next year when I move schools however, I'll be just like you guys and have all these wonderful exams throughout the year. :/
I'm actually not scared of them though, because I happen to not dislike tests.

So I got all my exam papers and let us say... bleh. I think I got the worst marks so far. Most of them are in 80s and they are just unusual. It seems I am losing my touch. My parents don't know that I had review of papers, and I didn't bother to tell them. Eventually, they will know by Saturday since report cards will be given then. Until that time, I am going to enjoy my life, since I am afraid my laptop would be taken from me when my marks are revealed. I have to prepare a speech now so that I defend myself and have a strong points against them while arguing.

In grade 8 we did take an exam that had 187 questions, but it really wasn't that hard.
Most of my tests are about 3-5 pages long and take me about 1 or 2 classes to finish. French tests are different however, it's an oral test s all we have to do is learn a paragraph and recite it with perfect pronunciation and not miss any lines.

This just shows how strictly they were marking the papers now.) To my extreme and indescribable delight, I got the highest grades among all 10th graders in most of the subjects mentioned above. Therefore, I feel that my hard work during the examination time really paid off now, and I hope that I maintain this pace throughout the year.

I got my Hamlet essay back. I got a 93% <3


I HAS A SMARTNESS

^ Well, I still have 1 on Monday and then 2 a day for the next 3 days. Monday is a full day.


Shadow, your grades are amazing. o.O

Good job Shadow.

My tests don't begin until next week. Luckily, we have what the school calls an Exam break. It's just instead of going to school every day during exams, you only have to go on days you have an exam. That means I have to go Wednesday next week, and then Wednesday 2 weeks later for my only two tests, the other days I get off. And The break continues until February.

Shadow you are the smartest person I've ever seen *Bows down in honour*

Shadow is teh know-it-all~! :3

could you maybe tutor me in Math class? xD

Great job earning those grades Shadow! That's pretty impression you have one of highest scores in your grade. I never knew you can take Theology in your high school. Usually you can take it in college.

Guys, hello? I am stuck here! Most of my marks are B's and my parents are not going to like that for sure. I want some help in explaining my situation on Saturday otherwise they might take my laptop...

Wow, I'm a little late to this party, but congrats Shadow!
My grades will never be as good as that :/

Thanks Anathema.

Just when I was feeling kind of underappreciated because my parents did not show evident delight with my grades, they surprised me by saying that they will be giving me about $450 as a reward for them! This also excludes the money to buy Black later on, so I am feeling extremely happy right now.

WOOW.

It'd take me months to save up that kind of money.

The next film coming out that seems interesting to me would be the Green Hornet.

Aside from that there don't seem to be any interesting films until April unless you want to see Justin Beiber's movie.

And thus begins hell Final Exam week (and a half).

I started my computer programming final yesterday. I'm stuck and I have no idea how to finish the program portion. So if Spongebob can pass the oral exam of his boating test and fail the actual driving portion, that must mean that I'm going to get a 100% on the written portion! Amirite? ...No?

I'll be starting my World History final today. The teacher literally showed us the final (without any answers filled in, of course) and gave us two whole days to study it and see if there are any questions we don't know the answer to, and look it up in the textbook, so I shouldn't have any problems with that one (c'mon, daddy needs a new pair of shoes an A!)!

I think I also have my Wellness final today, but that class is uber-easy and there is no way I could possibly fail it.

The rest of the finals are next week.

I'm seriously at risk of failing Trig right now. I have a C-. If I don't pass the final, I'm screwed. Better make like TSoT and prepare my speech...

GAH, MY LIFE IS SUCKING RIGHT NOW.

I've been getting A's since 6th grade, and I don't wanna stop now, but my chances of getting an A- in English are slim to none. With a total of two tests left (A lit. test on the play Antigone and the English final) I am very close to getting my first B+ in a while.

My current grade took a beating when my two important essays came back at an 87% (OK, I suppose) and a 76% (Not very good), thus dropping my grade to an 88.96%. Based on calculations, I must get a 100% on the Antigone test and a 98% or better on the final to get an A- in the class (as my teacher doesn't round our scores). Plus, the English final is a total of 185 questions, far longer than any test I've ever taken.

Aggh, it feels like my hard work is blowing up in my face now. >.<

I have a French essay due on January 27th and it's worth 100 marks. If anything happens to that essay and I don't do good (which won't happen) I'd like, fail French.

I have to remember only 45 uncommon French phrases and I get a passing mark. Who needs to study when you've got a photographic memory~?
I read over my essay today and I found so many small errors I had made the day before, need to fix those up.

Due to the lovely network errors yesterday, I wasn't able to log on to VR at all. I tried to refresh the page many times, closed the tab and re-opened it, reset my router and restarted my computer but with no success. I just gave up after all that. xD

Anyways, today we got a lecture from "The Princeton Review" about the SAT, the common requirements for universities (including both British and American) and even went over sample SAT questions. I thought that the lecture was excellent, as many of us were in doubt and confusion as to what certificates/qualifications we should have for entering university.

Damn it. These three weeks that are coming are going to be one of the busiest weeks of this year. I have an ICT (Information & Communication Technologies which is harder than IT) project. I have to make a chart or a board where I need to speak about something related to ICT. Yes, nothing specific. It is really hard to get a topic, and our teacher is so strict and ambitious when it comes to content. Thankfully, it is due to the 30th of Jan. Then, I have for next week an assignment about the play of Julius Caesar for English Literature. The good thing about it is that he didn't specifically ask for essays, but any kind of way to show the main theme of the play. I am going to draw, but I am still not finalized when it comes to what I should specifically draw. I think I should start from tomorrow morning. Now the worst of all is the Business Fair, in which we have to prepare a business project and demonstrate it in a fair, where you can actually sell your items. We also got to do an international-based debate. It is a very nice day, but preparing for it is really hard. Shadow and I have to finalize our idea and finish it. We will be having the fair on the 28th of Feb. Thankfully, we won't be studying any Business for the upcoming weeks, until the fair is over. Of course, I have got several tests in this whole mess. What in the world am I supposed to handle?! :\

Well I have nothing to do for the next few days. Exam break started and after 1 exam, I have nothing to do while waiting. Already handed in some applications at some jobs so maybe I can get one during this break.

I got my grades today, guys.
I ended up with A's in Language Arts, Science, Band, and PE, B- in Algebra 1, and a C- in Social Studies. Renaissance period = Hate</3
I didn't get that good marks in my 'Scholarly' grades, cause according to my teachers, my social skills are a little too good and I barely do my homework. =p

I got my grades from my last two biology exams today; I got two Bs. I am dissapoint.

But I got 19/20 in my last English exam, which I'm pleased about!

*posts exam/semester grades because it seems like everything else is doing it*

The first grade is my exam grade and the one after the slash is for the semester.

Art 2 Drawing: No exam/97
Algebra 2 PreAP: 89/91
Biology PreAP: 99/92
Communication Applications: 91/94
Spanish 2: 83/91
World History AP: 82/82
English 2: 91/92

I'm surprised about Biology, though. o3o Didn't think that it would be my best exam grade. And I'm happy that I got a B in my AP class.

Exams eh?

I took my GCSE biology mod2 yesterday, as well as computing AS

not too bad myself

I must admit that I lulz'd though, because on my 3 other forums the most recent posts in general Chat have also been exam results/worries XD

Today, I woke up to find myself heavily affected by a flu. I just took a couple of different pills and medicines as prescribed by a doctor, and my fever has started to go down a little bit. My eyes are burning and tearing like crazy, though, and my nose is still very runny. =S

Sorry you got sick Shadow, get well soon!

I have finals next week and juggling 2 projects at once. I will not be on the computer next week to study (and to keep myself from going insane) and to balance out between myself and the computer. Lately I have been attached to the souless machine and it's started to affect my school preformance and my lifestyle.

yeah, you guys have such good marks :]

I've got to wait months before mine :[

^lol, if I said all the random stuff on my mind, the victoryroad.net server would crash XD

My Grades are good, All I want is above a 75 in English, and I'm getting high 80's. Everything else Is lower 80's so far. Start Social in 2 weeks so I hope I do well in it.

Fubs, just study and you'll be fine


...I just realized that I'm getting my schedule changed for the 2nd semester on Tuesday when I go back to school. I hope I don't lose any of my good classes. D:

Its hard to fight back against the laziness, but you should be fine .

^QFT

It'll all be over soon :]

Today I played basketball in the morning. It has been for such a long time since I last played. It is quite bothersome in the beginning, but it is nice once you get used to playing again.

You know when you feel like you want to explode and temporarily leave this world to relieve your mind? You know when you get a strong urge to punch something so hard to express how you're feeling right now?

Well, those feelings summarize my reaction towards the huge pile of work which I have to do during the course of the coming weeks. As if the list of stuff to do which I posted last page wasn't enough, we're also getting an Arabic Language test, Physics test and Biology test before the end of this month! =/

I gotta study for finals soon. Ew. Luckily, I can stretch my final priority out based on my grades, like so:

Current Grades.....................................Final Exam Priority
Prd 1: Biology P (101.69% - A+)..............Low
Prd 2: Wld. Geo. (94.32% - A).................Medium
Prd 3: Chinese I (100.00% - A+)..............Low
Prd 5: Band II (94.66% - A)....................Medium
Prd 6: Eng.Honors(89.22% - B+)..............High

It started to rain few minutes ago. It is not like a lot of rain, but I hope it becomes heavy soon. I really want a rain day so that we can get a holiday. I am already fed up with school. >_<

IGCSE Mock examinations start in a month and a weeks time.. Sigh.. but instead of studying, I, of course, find myself playing Pokemon Black at midnight ._.

Actually, I'm in grade 10. I think my mocks are just a school thing.

I just figured out for the 2nd semester tomorrow I might get put in P.E. Not good. I'll have to change that. :l
