For example: I had an english task last monday, and all week I keep thinking about everything that I did wrong, or that I forgot to do. I feel like such an idiot- I didn't even do a thesis statement!

Anyone else feel my pain?

I only get that feeling after exams, don't think I've done it for another assessment.

Like the maths test I did where I did a probability question about a combination lock and multiplied 9 by 9 by 9 for the digits rather than 10 by 10 by 10. (0 to 9 is ten digits, aargh!) That cost me pretty much my only chance of ever getting 100% in a Maths test this year as it was the only thing I got wrong.

Actually I think maths tests are where it happens most, because you will absolutely 100% know you did it wrong.

So yeah, I feel your pain. :p

Oh, and you're in Pagewood? Cool.

Oh, i had that feeling after my maths exam. I thought i'd done really bad, but was happy to have gotten one of these questions right - and i looked back over my book and thought i had done it wrong.

Turns out i didn't. Haha.

I had that feeling after my last drama assessment, I handed it in, and that day we had a workshop about Drama theory and it had SO much we could have done in our assessment if it had only been a few days before. But i just laughed, because i knew i'd done badly anyway.

Usually after an assessment i'm so happy its over i don't care if i've done it bad. :D

Nope, the morphine takes it away.

Hmm, I do know what you mean though, always get that with english.

Do you know morphine is like a modified version of poppies, and heroine is a modified version of morphine.

I think I got my orders wrong, but yeah, you get the idea.

A heroine is like morphine? I knew females were deadly, but holy crap.

I get it almost every time with anything to do with English because every task is so subjective, and you hear what one person wrote and it makes you feel like a fool.

Maths is another definate because every task is so NOT subjective, so if you hear the answer and it's not what you wrote, you know for sure you got it wrong.

Nevertheless, I'm usually suprised by my results when I think I've done a bad job, so I guess I go through the emotions for nothing...

Ahh!

I had modern history orals last monday...

we had to do a 2 min prepared speech on the cold war...

we were in groups of six, and then we had to do a 1 min improvised speech based only on the info given in the 2 min speeches...

and when it was my turn i just kindof froze, coz i hate doing speeches at the best of times...and it was really horrible coz i finished about 10 seconds early as well!

scary times...

i saw a creature at a creek today ... it was moving slowly ... i watched tensely ... its dark coloured exterior fascinated me ... i was keeping my distance away from it .. i realised it was advantageous to steer clear from this creature...
it was a duck

Stayed up till 2 am finishing off my assessment for Society... It was the hardest piece of work I've ever had to do.

Now I have a yuck feeling that I haven't analysed anything
Then you stayed up another 2 hours doing something else...

No wonder you were so tired when cooking me breakfast this morning, darling.
