Finals

If I had blogged last night, it would be one hell of a tormented post.

I was rushing to cram 2 subjects into my head before the night ended. I can't stay up til midnight studying because when I get really sleepy, I lose total concentration. Nothing goes in.

So I got up early this morning to study for Sociology and Interpersonal Communications. Both papers were today; only one hour apart. I went to the library before the exam started. Vinod came by after his Statistics exam to study with me. Then we headed to the exam hall to face our fate.

The paper was really tough. We had to brainstorm over 6 essays and 30 MCQs with a limited time of 2 hours. I couldn't take my eyes off the clock. Plus I was sitting directly beneath the air cond, so my fingers went numb within 30 minutes and I had to force my way through the essays.

Anyway, once that paper was over, we were delayed for 20 minutes because the examiners detected that someone hadn't handed in his/her paper so they wanted to do a headcount. Turned out that they made a mistake during calculation, so it was their fault. And they made us wait that long for nothing. =.=

So I spent the next 40 minutes poring over the notes for my next paper. Vinod was nice enough to buy me a bun for my lunch, cuz I didn't have time to run downstairs to eat. By the time I went back into the examination hall, I was really tired. And it was another difficult paper. Another 6 essays and 30 MCQs. And the worse thing was, my brain shut down at the wrong time.

I didn't know how to do 3 of the essays. So I had to crap my way through. I only went as far as three to four lines. Then I couldn't think of anything else to say. That's the suckiest feeling when you take an exam; you studied so hard for that moment, but when the moment comes, you can't remember a thing you studied. Another sucky thing was that the 3 essays I couldn't answer weighed 10 marks each.

Sighh. Was seriously half-dead by the time I left the hall. Thought I could ace this paper, but I'm not too sure about that anymore. I should be feeling really disappointed and sad because of what happened in there; 30 marks is alot to say goodbye to, you know?

But I still couldn't feel anything. I felt indifferent. And I still feel quite indifferent. Maybe it'll take a while to sink in. Anyway, I'm done with my finals. I'm not exactly in the mood to celebrate. It feels like a typical Monday to me. And I'm tired. Really tired.

Did I mention that this is my last semester at college?

Well, yeah. I won't be around next semester. Will be applying for some American universities soon. (Still looking). I took some pictures of my final week at college. Will post them on Facebook - not to mention, the pictures of the AUP Seniors' Farewell night :)

Will post some here too. For now, I think I need a nice, warm shower and a pillow to cuddle in front of the PC and watch How I Met Your Mother Season 2!
