I GOT E's!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bit of a LOL day today. Firstly, I haven't finished my Japanese speech. Need to do that tonight before piano, dinner, Bones and Dexter. And come to think of it, ECO HOMEWORK.
I got my statistics internal back on Time Series. Here's a bit of lol - I E'd it. XD And this was the exam I could hardly sit still to prepare for. I didn't do any practise papers let alone hand in any to get it checked for feedback. Then when I get it back I find out I got an E for it. So YAY FOR ME~!!!! At this stage I have... a few E credits thanks to the awesome bullshit I crapped out for Classics.
Wagger failed it. She got the trendline for the centred moving mean wrong and therefore failed the entire paper (CMM is the first thing you have to do and in order to get the trendline right, you need to get the CMM right). A bit of a headdesk moment for us and especially for her.
We also did the resub for geography. edweenie didn't quite bag his excellence. My mouth just about got stuck to the ground when I saw his mark (fail) because he was so damn confident about it. Then I snickered and felt smug because he spent today's 30 minutes for a resub fighting for his life for a pass.
On the other hand, I was better off - but still very LULZ worthy about what I got. I got all the Excellence answers right and all the Achievement answers right. One would think it's an Excellence or at the very least, a Merit. BUT NOOoooooo. I didn't get enough for a MERIT grade (despite all my excellence marks) and therefore, they marked me right down to an Achieved. WHAT. THE. FUCK.
My teacher handed it back to me and was all: ARGH!!!!! RESUBMIT IT. AND DO IT RIGHT THIS TIME!!!!!!!
ALL I had to do was ADD A FEW SENTENCES. By a few, I mean like THREE to get my missing mark up to a Merit (from achieved) to be able to get Excellence (it was a merit mark, if I had written like four more lines for that mark, I would have gotten the merit mark but since I didn't, it was put down to an achieved mark and therefore, I couldn't get Excellence). So I wrote a few more lines and I thought maybe it wasn't enough because I seriously had NO CLUE what the fuck I was writing about (too long ago to remember, not enough time to care, too much to read) so I wrote a SHITLOAD more and hoped for the best that my bullshit was enough to get me from an A to an E.
With the exception of statistic's bi-variate data (I M'd that. Which is sad because for that I actually did practise papers), I'll hopefully have straight Es. LOL. ("Ohmygod, what the hell have you been doing all year?! Going off and failing everything!")
Moral of story? Don't bother studying - you'll get a more desirable grade if you are me. Cram the right stuff, write the right stuff and don't rely on bullshit to get you everywhere in life. >___> even if that's what I've been hanging onto for the past.............. ages ago.
SO THERE MR. PRINCIPAL. I'M AIMING FOR EXCELLENCE. Pfft.
Oh and today I went to Foodtown to buy junk food for my penguins for bribery. I looked at the calories on the crap and I nearly shat my pants.
