I don't really know why, but I'm feeling sad now after bio O. I don't know what it's due to... Maybe because I won't have random convos for another one and a half more days, or because it's raining, because I'm eating alone at Pizza Hut, just me and my prawn aglio olio, without anyone to chat with (but then again, I do like my moments of solitude). Or maybe it's because I didn't really do that well for bio O.
I was actually pretty lucky because my friend had previously sent me 100 International Biology Olympiad questions and I printed them out (when my printer hadn't died on me yet) and I did them all in the past few days. And it turned out that more than a few questions were taken from that particular paper. But of course they couldn't have taken all that many considering that Bio O had 200 questions. So at least I didn't have to think that hard for repeated questions. But unfortunately, I had a really bad runny nose.
(I'm nearly done with my spaghetti. Oh, why must the portion be so small... Oh a side note, aglio olio is probably my preferred choice of spaghetti now.)
So anyway about the runny nose. The paper was split into sections A and B for the first half (1hr 30 mins) and C and D for the second half, also 1hr30min long. I sniffled a little for the first half, but it didn't affect me much at all and when I went outside the sniffling stopped. So I didn't think of taking out the packet of tissue in my bag and went straight to my seat when the second half commenced. And then the runny nose came on full force. Fromthe first few questions onwards my nose was like a water faucet that kept dripping water (my mucus literally had the consistency of water. So needless to say I spent unnecessary time trying my very best not to let mucus drip on the paper and desk and so I left 16 questions undone, compared to 7 for the first half. And obviously, those that were done were very badly completed. And it's not actually to say that I didn't complete those 16 questions... When I saw that I had 20 seconds left I hurriedly filled in the answers randomly (since they're all MCQ and getting Ursuline wrong wouldn't lead to marks being deducted). And of course there were questions from the 100 IBO MCQs that were in the 7 and 16 questions undone. Oh boy, do I feel displeased with myself...
