I just took a nap and had a dream with various cartoon characters. I took miniature Tom (the one that chased Jerry) off a chandelier and he stuck to my palm. Aww. Maybe as I pass consecutive school ending exams, my subconscious starts to realise that I'm losing my childhood? After all the Polish word for my exams, matura, has obvious connotations in English - it sounds like it was derived from the word "mature" (and it was! not from English of course, but from something in Latin and means pretty much the same. Sometimes instead of saying "matura" we say "egzamin dojrzałości" - exam of maturity). We associate childhood with school, because we have to attend it until we are 18 years old, which is when law acknowledges us as adults. Some people leave school aged 19, but that's only because they were born before the end of April. One guy from my class is now 20 or 21 - he stayed here two years more and when this year it turned out that he would actually manage to finally graduate, everybody was like, "WHOA!". My birthday is in September, so I graduated from high school in the age of 18. Now I still go to school, because I write my exams there, but I'm not a student any more. I'm a maturzystka - a person who is in the middle of her finals.

I wrote the maths exam today. And… I'm not sure if it was so easy or I did everything wrong. As I talked to some other students, my answers seem right. I even did the very last task, which is usually the most difficult! When I finished it, I though, "wow, is that really it?". I skipped two tasks, though. They were telling me to prove something. I said: "it is so, can't you see it? believe me!". I felt really offended that they didn't trust me upon this, so I just moved on. XD

Tomorrow losers are writing advanced maths exam. I say losers because I can't imagine how can anybody like math so much. Anyway, thanks to them I have a day off tomorrow. And the day after tomorrow I have… ENGLISH! Basic level at 9 am, 2 hours of break and advanced level at 2 pm. I know I'll pass basic at nearly 100% (like last time during anchor/sample exam) and advanced at 80-ish percent. Or 90-ish, that would be nice. I'm afraid of the listening task - those British, Irish, Welsh and Scottish people speaking there are CRAZY. And I'm not entirely sure about the writing task. Oh whatever.

See ya after English!
