And, here it is again. The official end of another academic year. It is the end of the penultimate year of my undergraduate degree in biomedicine! One more year (provided that consecutive passes are successfully obtained) and I am graduating, GRADUATING! How exciting!?!??
And today is the day I realize that exams really DO get awfully exponentially harder from year to year, sometimes it is really not whether you've put in maximal efforts in trying your best, but most of the time it really requires a great deal of luck. Pure honest luck. And having two out of four of your tests being scheduled back-to-back of each other is probably an encounter of not that great deal of a luck. Especially the two which requires a substantial amount of memorizing work to be done prior to the test. Oh well, kudos to those who have survived thus far, especially those who have survived three back-to-backs instead of two since first year...amazing how you guys did it.
Exam period this semester has been particularly agonizing for me. Probably it's the overdose of caffeine sourced from my daily intake of rush double espresso that has caused a negative antagonizing effect instead of the state of hyper-alertness and feeling of well-being it should be producing. No idea. Or maybe it's my new shampoo. Or...the happy people lying in front of state library. Or those people who has zero tests and ended way way way before I've barely started anything. They all produce a cumulative effect I suppose.
Exam. Period. Bye-bye awesome pacific duck rice, hello neighbour $6.50 takeaways. Constantly counting the number of lectures you have left to cram in hopes that the number miraculously decreases with the with the amount of times you've counted. Trying to sleep when the sun rises and getting to know that sunrise is getting earlier and earlier by day. But the attempt has been relatively unsuccessful as the trams started their service as early as five and they are really really annoying when you are really trying to sleep. And the birds, stop chirping so loudly I am trying to sleep gah!!
Okay, I might sound like I'm really angry but I am not! I'm just a bit sleep-deprived. Well, really sleep-deprived. Probably my first time being that sleep-deprived due to exams. But in fact, I am really glad that I have pulled it through so far. At least, till now. And let's see what comes out from all these. I hope that it's positive! This past month has been nothing but a ferris-wheel ride. Slow in motion, but you get to see and do more things that you did not expected previously. It's good to slowdown and have a think at what you're doing sometimes.
