This is my second WTF kindda paper that has ever occurred in my NUS academic career. The previous one people left the exam hall feeling peeved and perturbed... But this time, people seemed indifferent, almost like this paper was nothing...
The paper was a shock and unexpected. Ya, he said it would be more difficult than the past year papers but that took me totally by surprise. Took me 5 min to recover from the initial shock. But well, the lecturer-cum-invigilator was nice; he gave us extra time to calm our nerves, I guess, or maybe only mine :(
Sowieso I calmed myself down and stop the panic alarm that was blaring off in my head. Tried to go through the questions one by one and finally found myself doing the questions... First thing I did today this morning was to tell myself to write at least something, so that the lecturer has at least SOMETHING to give me marks, even if it's 同情分.. But well, I need those, definitely. So Prof, if you are reading this please pass EVERYBODY! LOLX...
Felt worse enough, when I looked across the whole exam room and I was the only one with a huge pile of papers and books on the floor... LOLX... I am like moving the mess I made at my place to the exam room. Second rule which applies to most of my exams, I will look kiasu, kiasee and kia-watever-u-have, if that is what it takes to pass or do well, whichever depending on the circumstances.
My friend came out and told me she would pass, cos she could do 3 out of the 5 questions.... (Both of us were worried we would fail btw...) I was flabbergasted. She told me with such confidence, I am totally stunned... Then the rest of the class of super-brainy MICs would probably have breezed through them, cos my friend skipped more lectures than me and trust me, the lecture notes per se without the lectures, are not very much... I did all the questions, albeit 2 questions incomplete, I was not sure of ANY of the answers. She spoke such vivacity and gusto.... I am so so dead...
For the people who have been telling me NUS hard to fail if you study, it's pretty hard to imagine now... This is including the taxi driver who took me to school today. 33 came damn late and damn full, at peak hour. Taxi driver told me, "You last yr right? Relac le la. Not worried about the exam right? Got study I am sure you will be fine..." He was droning on and on. But well he was good-natured so I let him talk, while I gave him half-hearted answers.
I am a worry-freak by nature when it comes to this kinda thing, though I will get over it after a good sleep which I am yearning for now... And of course to see XL tonight.. Dun wanna disturb her studying for the time being with more of my complaints (since I already did for a while) which could take even more time HA!
And she told me a piece of good news about her interview! So happy for her!!! HAHA! Yeah yeah, go wow them off their socks dear! Beat YC and TP LOLX! GOGO! That sort of eradicated part of my moodiness... Good news which come as surprises always do :P
Ending this paper means I have only one last one to go... One last bloody paper... A bit more relaxed cos I am more confident of it. For today, just today at least, rid me please of ALL exam-related stuff...
Sat's squash and Sun's Kbox - I am looking forward to you
