March to Glory

My exams finally got underway on the 28th. What a paper I had first up! An absolute dream start to the exams! The exam on the 30th however was a different cup of tea. I've been telling all my friend that my biggest fear is not the paper but myself. And those words turned prophetic when we all had nothing and no one else to blame but ourselves and our nervous little minds for the scre ups we did in the 2nd paper! We lost out on a lot of crucial marks because we faltered at crucial times, we just didn't get down to thinking straight. Funny thing is anxiety and tension, stops you from thinking rationally. We all made some really silly mistakes in the paper. However, that should serve as a warning sign and should help us prepare for the big mean daddy of a paper that we're gonna be served on the 12th!

Thats all the news on the exam front. We've been doing a lot of self-introspection and soul searching the past few days and we can almost feel our brains metamorphosing and changing into a mature lump of matter. We've decided to bring ourselves back down to earth, after the great dizzy heights of last year and all the adulation, excitement, etc. etc. we're facing reality now. A couple of things happened over the last week and it's made us think and think seriously. We're learning that life is not all fun and games on the way to the bank. It's funny how priorities change, we're more sensible, wiser and (hopefully) smarter people than in the past. We're also learning to leave mistakes in the past and look forward to the future. We're gonna be brave and take the future by it's testicles and let it drive us to our destiny.

Thats all for now. Cheers everyone.
