Oh, it was a girl who bought me the hot chocolate. Gosh I don't know what I'd do if a guy bought me a hot chocolate...considering I don't know any guys... O__o

Oh. I thought you were talking about a guy since you mentioned right after that you're not good at talking with guys. Sorry, my bad cx

 I for one have been bought coffee by a guy (twice), and tbh it was no different than if it had been a girl. Then again, that might have been because he was telling me about his crush on this other girl in our class. So no room for awkward "wait, does he like me?" thoughts there ;3 (not that I'd have noticed anyway, since I am apparently completely oblivious to how people feel about me :I)

OH! By the way, I got some super awesome news today! My chemistry teacher decided that since we have so many tests coming up next week he'll postpone the chemistry test until the week after. I am so relieved, oh my gosh

Friendship always wins!
That sounds like a very good day.  Don't you just love it when things work out?  Also... I kinda like that song... .__.

I... kinda do too... But I can see how Australians wouldn't like it.

Oh come on, are even high schoolers drinking coffee in this country now while I still can't stand the stuff no matter how much I try getting accustomed to it?

Definitely! I hadn't even realized how stressed I was until the test was called off, but now I feel infinitely more relaxed c:

In similar news, I feel a lot less horrible because I found out I didn't fail my test from Monday!  The teacher was handing them out and said, "The grades were very good, this time!"  And I was thinking I was going to be one of two or three Fs in the class, but then he said there were no Fs or Ds.  O_O  I got a B.  I don't know how - I don't care how - but I got a B.  \o/

Sigrid dear, Fim is quite scary enough already *without* caffeine.  *With* caffeine, she'd probably be like Sigrun at the top of page 268.  I really don't think the world is ready.   :o

Congratulations!  I wonder why you felt so pessimistic before.  The prof wasn't grading on a curve, so clearly he thinks you knew your stuff.

I was pessimistic because the last test had one problem that was worth 40%.  There were two big ones on this one, so I figured they'd be worth about 60% total.  Thankfully, he weighted the problems differently this time.

Yay for both of you! ;D

So, today I actually did something other than "sit around and do schoolwork" and went to an art museum, which was nice. And then this guy came up to me and started talking about Tonalism, and I mostly managed variations of "oh" and "uh-huh" before he sort-of ended and I ran away hurriedly walked into another gallery.

I should really figure out this "interacting with strangers" thing... :-\

Thank heavens!  I'm happy for you.  Good luck with your studies and being polite to your dad despite his jerking you around.

Hehe, thanks :D Tbh I think the studying is going to be the easiest part, but I'll try not to get too annoyed with him (although apparently he has now started planning summer vacation, even though he hasn't talked to me about it at all?)
