I have my last exam tomorrow- ever since the pre-exam period I've slowly sank into insanity. I was ok for the first week, where I watched anime and movies, finished 30 Rock, played games and did other stuff. Then it was the last week before exams and I was feeling the stress a little, but I didn't really want to study or anything until like, the weekend before.
Anyway I crammed a lot of stuff, it was exhausting but on Monday morning I felt okay. Then exam was totally shit because I actually used up a full 3 hours (double-checking included, thankfully) to finish my papers. I thought my hand was going to fall off because my wrist ached so much. I even ran out of ink in my pen half-way through the paper. It was just one of those tests where I knew some stuff but not all the stuff, but I try to write something anyone, hoping to get pity marks.
Then 2 days later I had my practicals, which I think went okay over all but I certainly wasn't stellar. I practised quite a bit and I think I picked up a lot of stuff under stress. Maybe I got... 85% ish? Anyway it's good enough, but I felt so drained that afternoon. I went to the beach and went out for dinner with my room mate, and even though it kinda took time away from studying I think I needed something other than the thought of further exams.
So I had another practical exam before the week ended, and by then I felt that I had lost all orientation of time and place. I thought I had been in exam week forever and that nothing was ever going to change and I was stuck in a space where I rested some days but took exams on others. My practicals didn't go too well this time- I ran out of time and I think I was just sloppy in general.
Then Monday came again and I did miserably in my exam because I didn't actually want to revise over the weekend. I figured- hey, my paper is multiple choice, how bad can it be? Well as it turns out, if you don't even understand the question, then even a multiple choice gets pretty fucking hard.
Anyway I'm tired and agitated and I want to sleep forever sometimes but perform violent acts on certain subjects at other times. Tomorrow is my last exam (though technically I still have an assessment thing the day after) so wish me luck.
