Too Cool for School, Baby, Yea!
I've had sooo many bloody tests and essays, it's not even funny. I'm actually beginning to enjoy writing essays!
Ok, ok let me skip to the interesting bits..
Tall (rather cute) girl arrives at her tutorial class.
Sits down..gives a small happy sigh and turns to her friend and says "This subject is amazing isn't it? They're not giving us a mid-term test..how cool is that? Life is goooooood."
Friend turns slowly..stares...and says "The mid-term test was last week....."
Upon hearing those words, Tall (rather cute) Girl's blood runs cold.
She silently panics for 5 seconds.
Time goes by...so slowly
Time goes by...so slowly

"Ha..ha..You're joking, right?"
"No! The test was last week!"
"Oh..."
Tutor enters class and variety of colourful excuses rush through Tall (rather cute) Girl's head.
'My grandmother passed away...' (Forgive me Grandma.)
'My dog died..' (Forgive me Kelso.)
'My bus broke down...' (Well, it could happen.)
'As I walked out a ruggedly handsome hunk, kidnapped me and we proceeded to make mad, passionate love...' (I wish that would happen.)
Focus, Focus!
Girl gets up and walks up to the tutor and says:
"Sir..I feel like a real idiot for saying this..but I missed last weeks test..because it completely slipped my mind. I'm sorry. May I have a retest?"
Tutor stares at her and starts laughing..and doesn't stop. Tall (rather cute) girl doesn't like feeling like a royal dumbass, ok?
Finally when he does stop, he tells her she has to write (ANOTHER GODDAMN) essay.
Well, it's better than throwing away 30% of your total grade!
God, I'm such a moron.
Who completely forgets about a test?
Oh don't pop vein, Paranoia McParanoid!
I don't know if any of u remember my event crew job, but anyway there was a friend who was part of the same crew that I was.
He wasn't really someone I was particularly fond of, but we kept things civil.
After the job, everytime I saw him, I could have sworn he would send me HATE vibes, and we all know how good I am at getting vibes.
So recently I heard from a common friend the exact reason as to WHY he disliked me so.
He claims....(wait for it..wait for it....)
that I spoke to our superiors and tried to get him fired in order to steal his job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
How fucking paranoid can anyone get!?!?
I still laugh when I think about it.
Because firstly I hated my superiors and I tried to stay out of their way as much as possible. If I dislike you, its highly doubtful that I'll go out of my way to make unnecessary conversation with you (unless you owe me some money, or unless you're hot..in which case its highly doubtful that I'll hate you, OR unless you've given up a limb for me in which case I'll have NO choice but to talk to u).
Secondly, I wouldn't even steal someones eraser, let alone a job.
(I might borrow your eraser and then forget to return it. Two very very different things, ok?)
Thirdly, how on earth can you steal someones job when he's already got the job??
I swear, sometimes I feel like the people around me are one bread short of a sandwich if ya know what I mean.
Either that, or I've been put in the nut-house.
(I know..shame on me..being a future psychologist and all.)
Boo-frikkedy-hoo.

yea. I'm first.
Missed a test eh. It happens to the best of us. Not as bad as showing up a day late for the exam, though.
But when you're done with education, you'll know that this is all pointless, and its not really going to help you at all in a real job. Even if you're a doctor or something. How hard can surgery be?
ps. my word verification word is 'zolves'. How cool is that. Its almost a real word.
How does someone as crazy as you abt exams completely blank out on an exam. Btw loved this post Ms. Tall/cute girl.
4wd - u showed up a day late for an exam!?!
"How hard can surgery be?"

I think you handled the failure-to-remember-exam situation pretty well!! 'Honesty is the best policy' they say.. and in your case.. it certainly paid off!!!
Thirdly, how on earth can you steal someones job when he's already got the job??
Honey, that's precisely HOW you steal jobs. Someone already has the job... and you take it. There, stolen.
Now, how you do it is another matter, you tall (rather cute) girl.
Missed the test? Want to give another test? Bwaahahahahaa...
You are toooo studious! :P
dawn - yes. yes i am. i want the shitty comp at the office, the gnats, and them crazy stinky uncle fester types..i want it ALL!
mwahahaha!
surbhi - yea i was lucky but i suspect it had more to do with the tutor being a bit of pushover! (he's the one who used to 'stare') ahem. now we know. ;P
jay - but like who would want to steal the job of an event crew personnel?! honestly...if uve done it once, youd KNOW its the job that made the devil piss himself. its that bad.
(but if i DID want to steal a job..it would involve seduction. lots of it.)
nayan - oye did u read the bit about the test being THIRTY % OF MY OVERALL GRADE?!!??
a person would only miss a test like that if he was super sure of scoring full marks on the remaining 70% of the exam..and while i claim to be incredibly intelligent and good looking, even i know my limitations! :P
I was going to say something terribly insightful and mature. Then I read this bit (mainly cos I was scrolling down to find the comment box):
"(but if i DID want to steal a job..it would involve seduction. lots of it.)"
Thank you. Now I've totally lost my train of thought.
hello. so i tagged you. you might as well, i think its well established by now that college is rather pointless.
box - oh BOX. *blush* stop it! you silly man, you!
*giggle*
you ahh..too much :P
hgaaal - sigh. exactly why i forgot the test..it was such a useless module..i had like 4 essays to do.bah!
