It is a very lazy Monday afternoon, and despite the spectre of Common Test hanging heavy in the air, I am still comfortably ensconced in front of the computer terminal trawling the net. Barcelona had cruised to an easy 2-0 win over Bilbao earlier in the day, and while the performance of both teams would win few plaudits from the neutral spectator, the commentator as usual has to steal the limelight with remarks like this - "The referee has to do something ...the game is being repeatedly stopped...by non-stop free kicks". Wickedly witty don't you think?

Anyway I am considering the idea of putting in a cameo appearance at the RINCC camp later today or maybe tomorrow morning. Then again, it would be much easier for me to stay indoors and give myself a break from the rest of humanity. Perhaps I should commence my revision for the upcoming tests but that has been slated for the coming Saturday and Sunday, which will be spent in Christchurch Secondary running yet another NCC camp. This time though, I will have my books and notes at hand, and the cadets will get to see a more scholarly side of me.

Some gurus say it is always important to start with the end in mind, so here are my targets for Common Test.

General Paper - Anything between A1 and B4
Literature - B to E
Economics - B to E
History - B to E
Mathematics - C to O

Robert Frost admits few equals when it comes to ambiguity, but any more vagueness on my part and the master poet would be given a run for his money.
