I´m a nerd!

I´m a geek. A super dorky high nerd. (okay, that one was taken from the nerd quiz, but it is fairly accurate).

You wanna know why?

Well, my English teacher told me last week that she was disappointed in my pre-exam because I messed up something in the content or whatever, but she didn´t want to give the tests back yet so I had to wait until today. I seriously had to think about this fucking English test the whole weekend. I mean, it´s my final year, every point in every class counts so it IS a big deal if I mess up my Engish exam.

So guess what? Today she gave us the tests back. And I have 15 points. Which is an A+. Which is amazing and she just wanted to mess with me because she had fun or because she doesn´t get enough sex or whatever.


So, duh. Three exams written, I have 15 points in two of them. We don´t have the 3rd back yet. Maybe all that studying and all that reading did pay off in the end.


But I still feel kind of geeky. And, you know, not the cute/hot kind of geek. ^^

So, there are some things that I need to say. And yes, indeed, I need to say them in English because I have no clue how to say "geeking out" in German.

The new year has been quite stressful so far. Huge presentation in January (which went well), tons of tests in school, lots of studying, lots of reading (come on, I need my daily dose of fanfic) and lots of emotional struggles. Yeah, my therapy´s finally over. Which is great. I had to tell my mom - which was not so great. Hell, I will never forget the pain in her eyes. Never. But in the end honesty is the best way (I hope).
It´s hard to fight an addiction you don´t want to admit you have. I´m still fighting. It´s still hard. But it´s getting better.

I´m finally trying to be well, which is incredibly hard but I guess it pays off eventually.


I´m trying to keep myself busy and that works pretty well, especially since school demands all my concentration. Actually it all went better than expected - until I got really sick on the day of my first exam (English). I went to bed on Sunday, thinking "ohkay, everything´s great" and I woke up on Monday thinking "you can´t be serious". I mean, come on, I spent the weekend at home to not get sick and my damned immune system still fucks up. That´s not fair.
I hate it when I get the flu. Coughing up phlegm is not my idea of fun. And it seriously messes with my concentration. Anyway, I had my math exam at Thursday and I think it went okay. It clearly would´ve been better if I were actually healthy. But oh well. At least I could totally geek out over my new, fabulous calculator. Casio fx-991 ES. It can do so many awesome things, calculus-stuff and equations and tables and even complex numbers (which is totally awesome!). And integrals!
...maybe I should think about studying something science/math related because it´s actually a little frightening how fascinated I am by a trivial thing such as a new calculator.

And today I spent all the time on this history project. I had to write the script for the video we´re trying to create and I spent too many hours doing that shit. It doesn´t help that I´m still pretty sick. Goddamn flu. But at least I´m listening to Lights Out Asia (very cool Post Rock band) and I can read some Good Omens fic now.
Good Omens is THE BOOK OF AWESOMENESS. Really, it is. You should all go and get it. It has a paragraph about lurking. Lurking is a fascinating activity.
