Day One…

Today was my last first final, I did great!  I think…

I left the house with mom, and we stopped by Starbucks to get a drink so I wouldn’t fall asleep, because I’ve been awake since 7:00pm before yesterday!  I got a delicious Caramel Frappuccino.

I walked into the building with the principle hurrying me saying I was late,  but I was too sleepy to care.  So I went up the stairs & into class 10/A where my seat was; by that time, everyone had already started their exam.  I wrote my name down, and blanked out for about 5 minutes, then I realized I should probably start answering the questions.

Half way into the exam, I remembered a technique mom taught me in the car to remember something I studied, but forgot. She said I should talk to myself.  apparently, it worked!  I was trying to remember the name of an STD I heard about in the series ‘Grey’s Anatomy’, so I started talking to myself saying:  (Hey there! What’s happenin’?  Remember the name of that STD McSteamy was spreading around after he slept with that nurse?)  Then it popped into my head! Syphilis!  I was impressed…

By the time it was 8, everyone had finished their exam, and I started laughing about what I did earlier, you know, that little conversation I had with me, myself, & I.   Everyone in the room was so bored, and waiting to leave the room, while I was busy scribbling on the desk.

Finally, I was allowed to hand in my paper, and exit the “Stress Room”.   Downstairs I was extremely joyful, and happy! NO MORE BIOLOGY! WOOHOO!  I tore up the papers I had studied from, and threw them in the garbage!  Then it was like I got high on happiness, so I started to do little dance moves, and scream out YAY!   Fun didn’t last that long; I had to go to the library to revise, and answer some sheets for tomorrow’s exam.

At about 9:50, I left the school, and had a nice chat with my brother, who was in the car with me on the way back home. We talked about university, and how he wanted to study abroad. I advised his to take his bachelor’s degree here, since he wants to study medicine. He totally disagreed and said that he wanted better education quality, even if that means he has to study longer. I admire his hard work.  Looks like a bright future for him.

Now I’m here! I should be studying, but I don’t think I can stay up any longer, so I’m gonna hit the sack, and wake up later to study hard!

Ciao!
