Interlude

i've told you several times, but
i was feeling really, really sick after finishing the english school certificate exam because i was like "i have plenty of time i'm going to check every answer and think for a long time"

and then i checked my answers even when it wasn't worth checking, and i thought for a long time.

and i got up to the creative writing feature article with 25 minutes left. But I wasn't worried, because it said "suggested time: 25 minutes" or something like that, and I decided to write really slowly and think about everything.

and then I noticed I ran out of time and I had only written like 2/3 of a page, and I was stressed, like really stressed. Not just worried or anxious, but stressed. I can't stress that more. it was real stress, stress which I almost never have.

and then my hand was shaky and i wrote a little bit of unbelievably messy, poor syntax, inconclusive writing, and then it was pens down and i stopped writing even though i probably could have written a bit more.


and it was really sickening sitting there outside on the bench in front of the memorial garden. it was disheartening hearing people saying "easy had a 1 hour nap it was nice you'd have to really really suck to fail that" and it was even more disheartening hearing people say how they failed because i knew i failed.


Well anyway
