So I ended up not really studying at all last night. I feel like such a bum. :P I read through the chapter very briefly in the morning which actually helped a bit because I was able to apply a lot of it to the test this morning. It was fairly straight forward and something expected of Madame Cyr since she's so nice and lenient. :)

I know I did quite badly on the last few questions, but that would be because I didn't get to reading through the last few sections of the chapter. I still can't figure out what the question about "gradation" meant and I know that a few people in my class were quite baffled as well.

All in all, I don't think I did horribly though I don't know if I'll end up scraping a B for this one. I feel really horrible about Melissa's situation. Oral French was never my strong suit, but she seems to be having an even worst time of it than me (is that even possible?).

But my god, can that girl whine. The concepts aren't that difficult to remember. The rules themselves are very easy to memorize, though I can see how easily one could mix them up because there're so many of them. Still, I wish she would stop rambling on and on about how unfortunate she is, if only for just a single moment. It's really draining to be listening to her ranting while trying to pay attention to a lesson spoken in a language I've only begun to get a grasp on.

On a lighter note, the new Tokidoki flats are available for purchase at Eilatan, which is where I bought the Tokidoki x Onitsuka Tiger sneakers last summer. They won't ship the flats outside of the U.S. though, which breaks my heart. :( I'll probably need to wait until Tokidoki.it has them. GRR, more waiting...

I went to LUSH after school today. I had a bit of a headache going to school (probably car-sickness from the bus ride there... those damn Viva drivers), but it's gotten better since I wrote the test and got some polluted fresh air.

I handed in my resume today, figuring that the student rush will be starting soon and I really want to land a job there. They know my face well enough and the girl informed me that I'll probably receive a call from them by next month... which is when I find out if I got into JET. So... more waiting for me.

I'll need to start working on my composition soon. Madame Cyr requested that we write about our thoughts and feelings on the York strike and I need to memorize a page in my textbook for the upcoming dictée. I'm seriously going to try to get a perfect score this time.

For now though, I think I'm going to do my facial regime. I bought the Cosmetic Warrior face mask when I was at LUSH since I've been breaking out a bit these past few weeks (I suppose that would be the junk food). I took a glance at the expiry date and it turns out the mask was made just yesterday, so it's uber, uber fresh! :D Go me!
