twenty years it's breaking you down
the name is vanessa but everybody calls me van. estranged ex-NJCanoeist of 2004/05 K2-500m. I'm a WSO (FIGHTER) trainee and I'm doing my BA(Hons) English and Politics in the University of York. I like fast cars, literature, art and tulips. I cannot cook. When I was younger I wanted to be an astronaut. I am hopeless at math or anything remotely related to formulae. I detest parsley. I love the colour burgundy. My Macbook is my bestfriend and I've played with Macs since I was 15 so no, I didn't jump on the bandwagon. I have lofty dreams but I'm often afraid to chase them. I don't get angry I get disappointed. I intend to learn Spanish and German. Oh, and I think Liverpool kicksmajorass - I am not a fair-weathered fan. I think ambiguity is beautiful.

B for Lit. So far, BBO and there's still the art grade. I don't think I'll get less than a C for art though. But Lit was a real surprise. I mean, I would never have expected to get an A for the Brave New World context question that Ms Champagne told us NOT to do. That A, albeit borderline, saved my abysmal grade for Herbert, given that I missed out the entire last stanza of the bloody poem. So I think it's a 62 for lit? If my rudimentary calculations do not fail me.

Evaluating prelims.. I suppose I was lucky. I didn't (or rather, couldn't) put in maximum effort. I think I only put in slightly more than 50% of what I know I'm capable of doing. Hopefully, this means good signs for A Levels. My mom wants me to go abroad if I get a scholarship, but honestly, I want to stay here. NUS' Architecture course sounds good, but it's taxing. Maybe Psychology? Or English Language (Entymology & Sociology). Political Science. Lit. Philo. Sheesh I don't know.

Today Yiffy was impersonating Mao Zedong and trying to teach those new China/Viet scholars how to wear their uniforms properly. I mean, of course she didn't go up to them and force them to embark on the Great Leap Forward of this time and age, but she acted everything in front of us with such conviction. Ha. "Shang yi bu xu fang jin qun zi! Zhui hao bang yi ge shu jiao quan!" Complete with tongue-rolling and a Chinesey accent - she sounded really authentic. And I think that episode really brightened up my day for I was feeling very irritable. Thanks girl :)
