Finally, my exams are ALL done. All that's left is 1 big paper on Jollibee. -_-
I'm not even happy.
The evil after effects of the finals weeks are still haunting me... Man I didn't realize I take stress this badly.
A recap of things I went through since my last post. I may have done worse than flunked my 3rd exam. I actually experienced mental block while taking the exam, I couldn't remember that solid block of topics that comprised half the exam because I had to cram it a week earlier to make way for other exams. The second half of the modules I crammed in 2 days, and I didn't even finish those. -_- I swear, I was close tears (close, but not quite) and I vaguely remember that i contemplated for a split second just giving up halfway through. But of course that would be dumb. LSS: All that Jazz (it's annoying to have one during an exam)
Remember that paper/report/powerpoint presentation I kept mentioning. It went really well, considering we submitted our paper within the hour of the report (1 day late), conceptualized a skit within 30 minutes of the actual report, and crammed our powerpoint presentation while the first group was reporting. 0_0 Imagine, a 12 page paper all crammed into a relatively acceptable (but very drab-looking) powerpoint. In case you're wondering, I was the one who crammed the paper into a powerpoint, hence my right to insult it as drab. -_- Arghh! The stress level. Multi-tasking in a race against time. >_< style="font-style: italic;">astounding performance in the third exam, staying in my course depended on my getting great grades for this. So of course you can imagine the pressure and stress and dread. When I was taking 99.2, I remember feeling nauseous before the finals, and I wasn't even on the brink of failing then. And so for this exam, I felt depressed, nauseous, and I was in panic-overdrive mode. I mean how could I possibly finish studying all the topics of the sem in 1 1/2 days? Plus, we ran out of food that day, so I couldn't eat while studying as I am usually accustomed to. -_- My hyperacidic stomach made me pay for that. The exam was at 8:30, I slept at around 1:30, and woke up before the alarm clock rang at 6 (tsk...). Unfortunately for me, 3 consecutive days of lacking sleep spells disaster. My hyperacidity goes into overdrive. And my stomach was still queasy with nervousness. (See the title of the entry to find out what happens next.) I went to school and was almost late for the exam, which I falied to finish. To cap it all off, I didn't see that the back page of my answer sheet had those shade-in-circles so they were all blank when I submitted my exam. -_- Stupid. I only found out after everything had been submitted and my teacher was fixing the piles of paper on her table. It was fortunate that I even found out. I talked to my prof and explained everything, saying my answers were all in the solution sheets, if she'd just take the time to look for them while checking. @_@ I think I'll get a major deduction, but at least I was even able to tell her. Gaaah!!! LSS: All that Jazz (again)
I so don't take stress well. I'm a panicky person. I'm also a more-cheerful-than-average person, and when confronted with adversity, I end up reacting in a more-extreme-than-average way.
