From Delirium, bordering on Despair, to Despair, bordering on Destruction

Talk about a long day. That's two discussion leaderships, one long test, and graded recitation. DL for English was a disaster, Fiction was alright, had lots of time to spare - thankfully sir oca stuck his nose in and helped us kill time. Didn't get called for Filipino, luckily. I could barely understand some of the words. But a lot of the modern poems are pretty cool though, a number of them on the morbid side - very fascinating. There's one I want to translate and put up here when I have time - it's called "Aralin sa Kasaysayan 3 (Kung paano pumatay ng bata)," or "Lesson in History #3 (How to Kill a child)" It's supposed to reflect that time in the Japanese occupation, when they'd slaughter the babies of comfort women. It's a lot more interesting than the crap the traditional poems shoot.
Lala.
I wonder what happens when you fail a subject. It'll take a serious miracle for me to scrape a C for math. I'm such an idiot, I should've taken Basic Math, that way everything is discussed thoroughly. I'm really really scared. My midterms and the third long test have to be better, or all hope is lost.
Am beginning to wonder if I am cut out for my course. It's so shittin hard. There's so much math, which I'm absolute crap at.
Somebody please. Help.
