I decided not to go to school today. When I woke up, my whole head was feeling very uncomfortable, cos my wisdom tooth was still hurting from yesterday. And my cough was still really bad. My nose too. I was just feeling sick. Well, not really very very sick, but lessons end at 5.30pm on Thursday. I don't think I would've been able to last through the whole day. So I decided to stay at home. I was actually already contemplating not going to school yesterday, but there was econs test yesterday, and make-ups are troublesome. Didn't feel too good at school yesterday.
I feel a little guilty for not going to school today. Of course, feeling- and more importantly being- sick was the main reason. But I had other motives. If I didn't skip school today to go see the doctor, I'd have to wait till saturday at the very earliest. Then I'd have to skip the choir outing. I didn't want that. Skipping school today gave me the time to see the doctor. I also didn't do any work yesterday- slept at around 9, hoping that I'd feel better today. So I didn't do any work. I guess I wanted to escape the consequences of not completing my second PI draft and not finishing up the bio essay question. Is this wrong? Was I really sick, or did I just want to feel sick? Am I just trying to rationalise my decision not to go to school today by telling myself that I'm sick? Sigh. It can't be undone anyway. I missed today's lessons. Only missed one lecture, fortunately. The rest aren't as important.
I can't say I regret missing school today though. It's given me time to rest. I feel much better now. Probably due to the medicine, but hopefully I have recovered. The week so far has been really hectic. And the rest of it is too. Three tests, not to mention the three days of choir, and to top it off I have three, um, activities that clash on saturday.
There's this compulsory service learning talk on saturday- part of some stupid "LEAPS" programme. I think I'll just pon this one. Or find a replacement date. Sigh. Most of my saturdays are already packed with other things. Our Best Business Idea mentor also wants to meet with us on saturday too. Sigh. I still regret joining this competition. I was really very tempted to just not do anything when the teacher-in-charge told us that we'd be automatically disqualified if we failed to submit the business proposal by next Monday. I'd be letting my team-mates down though. Gotta see it through I guess. Hopefully we don't get through to the next round. haha. Then finally there's the choir outing-cum-second orientation for second intakers. It's a whole day thing. I was quite looking forward to it.
Sigh. What a dilemma. Which to choose? I really wanna go for the choir outing, and just skip the rest. I've already decided to find a replacement date for the LEAPS thing on saturday, or just not go altogether. So it's just down to the BBI meeting or the choir outing. If I had my way, I'd just go for the choir outing, and give the BBI meeting a miss. But I guess I have to get my priorities right. Oh well. In the end there's actually no choice. I'll just have to go for the BBI meeting and then go down to sentosa later.
Hm... my wisdom tooth isn't hurting that much already. Maybe it's gotten better already. Or maybe it's just the painkiller doing its job. Either way I have to get that blasted tooth (and the other three, which aren't hurting yet) extracted. It's not coming out nicely. I was hoping I could wait till June to get it done. Need 5 days' MC for each tooth extraction. Hopefully I can still wait till June. Please. Just one more month. Or else it'd be really troublesome. I don't wanna keep missing school.
Spent most of today lying down, trying to nap, and reading a (SW!) novel. Gotta do a bit of Maths now though, before I sleep. Lecture test tomorrow. It shouldn't be that hard. Just Functions, Graphing techinques (aargh) and Inequalities & Equations. I just have to practise drawing graphs. and do a few questions, and hopefully I can do well. Not much time left- gonna sleep early again. Whoops. Spent too much time blogging. I would've been doing my maths now already, if not for the stupid loss of half of my post (blogger's "recover post" only recovered half of the post!), and the miraculous recovery of the old version after I retyped the other half (I realised that the whole older version had already been published after I published the new post. Turns out I somehow managed to publish the post before I accidentally closed the tab.) Sigh. I really should write in notepad and then transfer it over to blogger next time.
Should I go for Napfa tomorrow? I don't feel that sick now- should be ok tomorrow. It's not the 2.4km test anyway- just the 5 items. I hope I can still do my 5 ot 6 pullups. I suppose I could just go for the make-up test. If there is one. But the 5 items won't kill. Will it? LOL. I'll just see how I feel tomorrow first.
