Hidden for rambling.
[hide]I feel like a dolt. While we were shading in our matriculation number before today's exam, the girl beside me asked me about it, because there were more columns than there were characters in our matriculation number. I glanced over and saw that she had added in an extra zero to fill in all the columns, so I explained to her that there's only one zero and they always add in extra columns. So she changed it.
After I finished the exam, I left the hall and started thinking about her, and realised that she could have been an exchange student, in which case her matric no. would have had more zeros. I tried not to think about it, but my mind kept bringing up 'clues' to suggest that she was an exchange student. Against my will, I started imagining all sorts of scenarios, like what if she filled in her matric no. wrong and her paper ended up getting lost and she didn't get the grade for it, and she would forever remember me as the student who ruined her grade. I couldn't take it anymore and discreetly re-entered the hall and quickly asked the girl whether she was an exchange student. She looked surprised to see me back, but smiled and said no. I was like oh okay, just check your matric no. against your card I guess :) and practically ran out of there. I felt incredibly silly but much relieved so I guess it was worth it.[/hide]
In other news, today I walked home from the bus interchange, which is a distance of about 4.9km. It's a lot for me, considering that I almost never exercise, and that I was carrying my school bag and my laptop. I didn't have any music, so I started singing Accidentally In Love softly under my breath. I forgot how it ended, so I continued singing the last couple of minutes over and over again. Incredibly exhausted right now with random light aches here and there; hopefully the oh-so-elusive sense of achievement will kick in soon.
EDIT:
And I just spent the past ten minutes running and leaping onto the bed. Haven't done this in years; it's surprisingly fun.
