25/06/2002, Tuesday, 3:30pm--still at school

Today, 4 of the 7 things that I "predicted" on Sunday had came true. Namimura-sensei announced the summer vocation assignment through the PA system today. Because she was afraid that we would throw all our books at her if she told us during lesson. Well, the assignment is that we have to read a book (English of course) and do an oral report when we come back to school. Umi-san said that was boring (just because she don't want to read any books).

The second "prediction" came true was the threat of the computer project. But everybody was busying starring at either the computer screen or the exam paper. The highest mark in the class was 98% and I got a 96%. Kuyami-san, who claimed that she never touch the computer textbook or notes or whatever, got a 83% as well (and Sango-san almost choked her to death because she didn't believe her).

Umi-san did shouted as loud as she could when she got the notice, and trashing around the classroom at the same time. But she didn't scream because of the Eng. Lit. result. The reason was...their Eng. Lit. teacher Ms. Kempston (a westerner) was away for a week. So instead of giving them back the exam paper, she gave them a set of post-exam homework. And they still have a summer holiday homework to come...(yes, she did shout at poor Hikaru-san as well)

And today I still manage to keep my life safe from Umi-san's threat. Even I got the second highest mark (in the class) in Math this time. But I've got messed up the time table. So it turned out that we don't have any History lesson today. But now we only have History and Economics, also the English paper 2 and 3 left. Since we have talked about the Japanese paper already. According to Sorai-sensei, many of us had failed in the paper 2 (usage). Fortunately the composition managed to give us a pass. But something quite unfair had happened to Umi-san. Sorai-sensei was talking about the comp., when he was scolding the students who wrote their essay too short, he scold Umi-san as well. But Umi-san had written almost 4 pages which could be consider a bit too long. Even he found out later, he didn't say a thing. Which caused a big trouble to us, since she is going to drag to the Karaoke bar to release her anger 15 minutes later.

We've received the post-exam activity time table as well. Most of them was not really interesting. Except about the prize-giving ceremony on the 10/07. Somehow, I got another award, which was the Avid Readers Award of the English Reading Program. And I have to tell Umi-san and Hikaru-san about out interview...

Oh no, here comes a fuming Umi-san.

Believe me, never go to the Karaoke with Umi-san. For the sake of your hearing.

Because of the discussion of exam paper, Umi-san was more than depressed (she said that) and furious (this was what we saw) after school. She dragged Sango-san, Kagome-san, Miroku-san (actually he just come together without an invitation, not that we mind), Kamatari-san, Hikaru-san and I to the new bar she discovered on Sunday. But for most of the time, only Kamatari-san and Umi-san could hold onto the mic. long enough to say something. The rest of us only watch and drink. And Umi-san was not singing, she was shouting through the mic. Since she was "releasing her anger". But we still have 2 more subjects and a total of 4 papers to go! I wonder who would be the victim to her anger tomorrow. I hope it would not be Hikaru-san again.

Back to the Karaoke Party (as Kamatari-san put in). Like I said, except Umi-san and Kamatari-san, the rest of us could only look and shook our heads at their mic. fight. We did try to get the mic. But they always got their ways in snatching it back. Since Umi-san was in her rabid rage stage (good term, Sango-san), so all the songs she chose were rap songs. Sometimes 1 or 2 curses will pop up as well. The only bad thing was that, our ears hurt (she was too loud!)

And Kuu-san called her friends to practice for a drama for a special performance during the summer. Her friends were as noisy as Umi-san.

What should I do?
