We're at this stage in life where we reminisce too much of our near past, worry too much about our near future, are
too clueless about everything that can, will, may happen to us, think we know alot, think we don't know anything,
am confident about the wrong things, take pride in wasting time away, want too much but want to do too little.
Ohwell.

Maths
Let's do some Maths.
Since promos in NJ officially starts on Week 2 of Term 4 with a holy GP paper, I have 17 days left to the start of promos.
And since I've to have at least 12 hours of sleep a day, assuming I sleep only 12 hours a day, I have
17/2 = 8.5 days left to the start of promos left to study.
And because out of these time left, I've to spend time eating, bathing, and traveling to Woodlands library aka the only holy place I can study, time left is even shorter. Assuming I spend 15 minutes on each meal, that's 45 minutes a day on food, and another 30 minutes to bathe twice a day, and another half an hour to travel to and fro Woodlands library, I've to take off 1 hour and 45 minutes each day.
Therefore,
Time left to the start of promos = (8.5 X 24) - (8.5 X 1.75) = 204 - 6.75 = 197.25 hours
Which is 8.21875 days left.
And out of these 8.21875 days, rounding off to 8 days, I've to study for 4 H2 subjects.
So on average, I've 48 hours to study for each holy H2 subject.
And the remaining 5.25 hours I'll leave it to read newspaper so that I'll no fail GP.
Okay, so now we talk about the 48 hours.
For Maths, there's a total number of 18 topics to learn (note, not study, LEARN). So.
48/18 = 2 hours and 40 minutes for each topic
And I'm trying to ignore the fact that I took 2 hours to do three inequalities questions yesterday, out of which I got none correct.
So. You think I'm only screwed for Maths?
For Physics, there's a total of 14 topics, Chemistry 16 topics. And that's 3.42 hours per topic for Physics and 3 hours per topic for Chemistry.
AND. I haven't even taken into account the time I spend staring into space, and the time I take in dilly dallying. AND I definitely do not finish a meal in 15 minutes.
AND. The time I spend on the computer. Shit.
And the worst thing is, I definitely do not sleep only 12 hours a day.
Oh. And the 14, 16, 18 topics aren't counting those that haven't been taught yet. (Yes, promos start in week two and NJ hasn't finished the syllabus for Physics yet.)
Econs? I love it so much I can't bear to flunk it. It seems like the only sane subject around. At least I know something about Econs, not just the spelling.
I. Should. Have. Taken. ARTS. Damn.
-Starts screaming-
Seriously.
I think for the first time in 17 years, I'm stressed.
Shit.
