Careless Mistakes: "The Necklace"

Today, i would like to talk about 2 things. First one is the math test we are going to have tomorrow. Our midterm week was over last week and everyone was celebrating and being lazy as if there is no tomorrow. However, there is a tomorrow, and we are having a math chapter test. Thank the lords that we arent having a math midterm, though i really like math. However, i simply detest the pressure being felt before midterms. I detest midterms, too. Actually, I detest myself. I knew that I could have gotten a higher score. I simply hate myself for making mistakes. Secondly, I read "The Necklace" again, in our english textbook. I've at least read the story 4 times now. Everytime i finish reading the story, I feel such depression and sadness for the main character that I dislike the author very much. However, as I rethink it over, it is actually the main character's fault. If only she hadnt been so careless, then it would have saved her from the 10 years' hard work. The careless mistake topic conjures up the incident where i left my laptop in the history classroom. Oh no. A careless mistake. Pray to the lords no one took it. I swear, or at least swear to try not to make any careless mistakes again. Not on any test, nor in life. This brings us to another topic. In books, author creates characters based on how they would really react in real life. So reading books and understanding characters help readers with how to face life. That somehow seems to make connections between me and "The Necklace," but no more of the careless mistakes!
