A little depressing day~

Yesterday started out fine, I woke up late and relaxed for my Operations final exam, which is an "open notes-no study required" kind of exam, got to school early and decided to hang-out in the library since I had nothing to do.
And then the bad things start. By some stupid twist of fate, I got to the exam at fifteen minutes to four, when the exam was scheduled at 2thirty and was scheduled to END at four. And then I realized, "Shet, wala akong yellow sheets!" So I run to our building's coop, to find that they were out of stock. OUT OF STOCK? Since when has the coop ever been out of stock? And of yellow pad no less! GAAAH!
In that moment of panic, one of my very laid back RPT batchmates stepped into the store. Why he was in BA, I don't know, but I was a little relieved to see him since I needed to vent out some panic. Good thing my dear RPT batchmate was well equipped to handle my nearly-hysterical-close to screaming-panic. He tried to ask his groupmates for yellow pad, but they were all out. T_T So I ended up buying columnar pad, praying that my prof wouldn't mind.
I got to the exam and grabbed a questionnaire from the teacher's table in front of the room, ignoring the few chuckles of my classmates. The teacher was no where in sight, and I don't remember ever answering an exam that fast. Thankfully, the exam extended by thirty minutes, and I was almost finished by the time the teacher announced that we had to pass our papers. But I was still halfway through the last essay, so summoning up all my courage, and praying simultaneously in my head, I asked the teacher to give me an extension. Good thing she's one of the nicest, kindest, most understanding and best teachers in the world! She gave me an extension, unfortunately, this cost me my attendance in the accounting make-up class which was scheduled at 4thirty. And missing this class cost me the chance to get my exam corrected, if indeed there were corrections. -__-
And then our batch rankings were announced. *sigh* Can this day get any worse? -_- We're 60-70 in the batch, and I didn't make it to the top 30 i think. Just the kind of thing you'd want to hear after submitting the sloppiest exam you've ever answered.
I headed to the CE tambayan afterwards, where I enjoyed a short ranting session, followed by some jamming in the dark. ^_^ Then we went to Flaming wings to eat some good food, then I was off to McDo to study. And surprisingly, some of the "Ocean's" were there. Although hanging out with the CE people cheered me up a bit, back in McDo (hiding from the classmates I wasn't close to), the same feeling of failure came haunting me again. Plus I actually almost missed an exam! (though why this bothers me, I don't know, considering I got an extension anyway.)
Maybe this feeling of failure comes from Schmendrick the magician.
This entry is draggingly too long already, so I don't think I'll expound further. :p
