exams.


Haihhhh.


Hmmm. I survived a full week of exams. One full week.

It was very stressful and tiring. Really.

Few days before the exam started (monday), i was really really stressed. Stressed and stretched, to breaking points. I was like a bomb. Anything small thing could trigger me to explode. It was hard, trying to contain everything within me, trying hard to not lose control of myself and just let everything spill out. And just explode. BOM!

The days when exams started were better. But not that good as well.. It was like war against books and myself. Trying to swallow everything in from those pages printed with words, and more words. With information i'm supposed to gobble in and digest. I was like drowning, being drowned by all that things that i was supposed to know.

During the nights, my brain functioned the best. (thank God!) Enabling myself to remember and understand what i studied,and not like you know.. 'Ear in ear out' kind of thing. But it was war as well. To sleep or not to sleep? Sleeping wasn't a routine anymore, it became a choice i had to make. If i sleep, i don't study. If i study, i don't sleep. Simple as that.

Perhaps it was the 'kiasu-ness', or the competition, or the perfectionist-ism. At times, i was really tempted to forsake my precious sleep and study through. Or maybe, i just didn't have the courage to allow myself. I just can't let myself do badly in this exam.. Just CAN'T.

There were times when my brain just crashed on me as well. Like SEJARAH. URGGH. I studied ok!! I studied!!! And it wasn't that last minute as welll!!!!! But when i opened the exam paper, my mind just went blank. The computer crashed, hanged. And i didnt know how to do any of the questions! Thankfully, really thankfully, God helped me remember alot of my stuff after that. Though it was like almost half an hour left, but im still really really thankful.

Well, it HAS been a week. A long week. Thankfully there's no school till thursday!!! :D Deepavali.. (God, thank you for creating indians.)



God, thank you for walking me though this week. Like you have always did for all the weeks of my life. I know you were there, dancing over me, when i was struggling within, falling apart, in the middle of nights. I know you were there, when i was sitting at my desk during the exams, and even when my computer crashed. Thank you for simply just being there Lord.
