2nd CA posting.

I already knew that this week would be a hectic one since Monday. Homework, projects, band practices. I guess this is not what a typical Secondary 2 student would go through, especially at the beginning of a new year. I guess I'll just have to cope. =[ But all these distractions did not stop me from reading. Reading is the very first thing I fell in love with, ever since I was 4. So on Tuesday night, despite reaching home VERY late because of the Design and Technology project, I managed to put aside my homework on that day to read. I read on the bus, and there were distractions too, such as the horrendous chatter of the commuters, the blasting rain and the leaking roof of the bus. The leaking roof was very irritating though, so much as it actually dripped on MY book. When I reached home at about 6.30 pm, I even skipped dinner so as to continue with the absorbing contents of "Flowers for Algernon". It's a really sad story about self-esteem and how a mentally disabled man coped with it, and a successful operation turned him into a genius, but finally deteriorates to his original IQ. I guess reading is really something the world cannot do without. =]
