Winter Break!
Yay!!! It's Winter Break!

I was finally able to finish most of my tests. Only have two left... One from Latin and the other from Economics. (sigh)

Yesterday, the marketing competition was fun... sorta... not... exactly... I didn't do very well on my role play... there were three questions I couldn't answer... I'm never doing accounting ever again... I suck at math so much... Except the food was good... it was... mainly pizza...

But at last... it's finally over (sighs in relief)
At first, I was supposed to role play first, but then someone didn't come, so they shifted my time from 8:20am (yes, it's that early) to 8:40, which gives me some time to prepare. Then I had another role play at 9:30am. I did worse in my second role play than I did with my first... In my first role play... at least I understood what I was saying, but I couldn't answer one of the questions... Then in my second role play... there was a time when I spent three minutes talkig about nonsense... I didn't know what the heck I was saying... just talking as I go... plus to make it worse... I couldn't answer two of the questions which was asked... I felt so stupid... I even wrote down something very important, but forgot to tell it to the judge... I don't believe I got a very good score...
After that, I had to wait until 11:45am as other students finish their role plays... I should've brought my gameboy along... Instead I only brought my sketchbook, my cel phone, pencils, and some money... So I spent most of my time talking on the phone (with family members).
Once it was finally 11:45am, all competitors were to go back to the conference... lecture... whatever room (where our role plays took place). They already had the stage prepared and everything. Then the hypnosis came and the show begun. Students who had their permission slips signed and were able to be hypnotised charged to the stage, trying to get the chairs... it was... awkward...
During the show, everything didn't look real... they didn't look at all hypnosised... they looked pretty much awake... but I don't know... maybe they really are, but doesn't look like it...
During lunch, while we were in line, I heard some students behind me talk (one of the was a volunteer to be hypnotised). From what I heard, he didn't remember anything at all... But I'm not sure...
During lunch, we had awards for the marketing competition. Those who recieved one were able to move onto the states competition.
I got 6th place in accounting. I was pretty surprised when I heard my name called... I didn't expect me to qualify to the states seeming how stupid I am when it comes to mathematical terms (...don't ask me...).

Only eight students (I think...) were able to qualify to states which were from my high school...
