Details on exams

Exams have been over for a while now.

First exam - June 20th
Scheduled time - 9:15

I woke up at 6:15 and figured it was still early. Alarm was set for 7am so I had about 45 mins left. Went back to sleep.

The next time I opened my eyes it was 8:50.

Swears flew all over the place. Skipped breakfast. Skipped toilet. Put on clothes, brought my stuff and dashed to the bus stop. 5 minutes later, I was on the bus and in the hands of fate.

I figured I couldn't do much to change what happened, so I just took the time to relax and prepare my mind for the exam rather than panic.

Got to exam location at 9:29. Used the toilet first because I KNOW I can't do it properly when I feel like peeing. So I got in at 9:30. Luckily, the exam only started then.

See, I found out students go in at 9:15. Have 5 mins to put bags down and etc. 10 minutes to read through the questions THEN only are you allowed to write the paper. So I was safe and had 10 minutes of free time at the end.

The trauma came later.

Two days after,
June 22nd - My last 3 papers. (All in one day. I'm a sadistic bastard.)

Woke up at 5am. Went back to sleep.
Woke up at 5:30 am. Went back to sleep.
Woke up at 6am. Went back to sleep.
Woke up at 6:30am. Went back to sleep.
Woke up at 7am. Got up and got ready.

Obviously my body didn't wanna be late this time.

Took all remaining three exams and did what I could. For better or worse. They were okay, not difficult and I sure as heck won't say they were easy (I'm not that crazy).

And so the holidays began!
