And so the A levels are officially over yesterday. The unofficial one is last week after the chemistry mcq.
Cambridge rocks at exam date planning. The mcqs nice nice have to be at the very last end of the exam, and the biology one had to have a long gap between our 2nd last paper, and some of us might be torn between celebrating and studying for the mcq during that gap. Just a random thought, why are the mcqs called paper 1 when it is the last paper out of 3 to be taken?
But of course who knows Cambridge might have some rationale behind it like allocating that 40 marks to those that have the discipline to endure the temptation to study for it. Still, they could also just be plain lazy. D:
Anyways, i recently turned 18 and can officially drink alcohol, though i can't "officially" enter a sex shop (selling adult toys, kinky stuff etc.) yet. I asked the shopkeeper there in one shop and she said the minimum age is 21.... WHY NOT 18????
I am not sure what's the difference that this 3 years can give, particularly with reference to buying stuff from sex shops. But i acknowledge that the "slippery slope" argument might roughly apply here, i.e. "if 21 why not 20 and half, and why not 20, then why not 19, or 18, 17, 16, 15, 14.......
We are often packaged as "young adults" and told that we should now already be responsible for what we do. I guess this "young" word is some nice qualifier, but i am not complaining about anything though.
Take note, "i am not complaining about anything".
But of course some of us are clearly not behaving as a young adult. I won't be bitching about here, i'd just say, i guess there are lots of kinds of people out there.
Currently hooked on classical Touhou music arranges from TAMusic. Seriously, they are awesome.
PROFILE
Ayayayaya ~
Touhou Fan.
Listens mostly to Touhou doujin music

Very Japanese-oriented, absolutely not Korean-crazy like the crowd out there
Watches Japanese anime
Wants to do, learn and try many, many things, but finds it hard to find the time, commitment, and energy to do all of that
Life is short, and i want mine to be especially so
