Exams

I am sorely tempted to cancel these posts during exam week - this week, starting today. Very, very tempted. Especially since I have a couple exams starting at 8am and I don't usually eat breakfast until 8am to be ready for classes by 9am at the earliest.

However, I'd really, really hate to break my streak with this blog (currently about 80 posts in as many days; can I get three cheers for continuity?). Maybe I'll have to find a spare second or two and type up a blog post in advance for those 8am exam days.

Ugh, why must exam week be so grueling? I mean, it hasn't even officially started yet and I'm worn out! Things were never this difficult in high school. I rarely studied for any of those exams; I rarely needed to in order to make A's.

Some of you readers who are older than me are probably laughing at me right now, aren't you? "Girl, you don't know what hard is. Just wait until your junior/senior year" or "Just wait until you actually get a job." Am I right? Half right, at least?

I hope not. I can probably learn to handle it, but I really don't want to. Just send me back to kindergarten/first grade, okay? Please? I can only remember clearly one test - no, one part of one test - in first (or was it second?) grade. I guess it was some kind of listening test. The teacher wanted us to draw an "I" (or "eye") on the wing of a bird. I didn't know which "I/eye" she wanted, so I didn't put anything. Later, she told us either one was acceptable.

How I wish to go back to those problems. Don't we all? Oh, well, I guess we all have to learn to deal. =/ Well, see you tomorrow!
