A very exciting day

It is Tuesday, 11 August 2009. I woke up early in the morning to do my prayers and eat my breakfast. Today is the day. Today marks the start of the common test 2. Today will be English. I was hoping that it was not difficult as I am always nervous when it comes to examination.

My father called out to me. I then hurried down to board my father's car. Surprisingly, I reached to school earlier at around 7.18 am as I usually comes around 7.30 am. I went to class. Everything is normal except one thing. The class does not joke around a lot this time. Instead, most of them were nervous and just hope that they get through with the examination easily.

The bell sounded. It is 7.40 am. Time for the national anthem and the pledge. We then sit down and waited for the paper. The teacher then distributed the paper and everyone waited for the clock to reach 8.00 am. The clock reached 8.00 am. The teacher allowed us to start the examination. Everyone flipped over the paper and started to read and examine the passage. I read and try to understand the passage. I then began to attempt the questions. Surprisingly, I was able to do it easily and manage to complete it within the time given. I was relieved. We handed up the answer script to the teacher.

Then, lessons resume as per normal. Man, it was tiring to try and concentrate if you know that tomorrow is another hard exam. I tried to concentrate. Soon, after all the studying, I went home. Upon reaching home, I instantly took my lunch and went to shower. Then, I did my homework till night. Then when I was about to go to sleep, I remembered that I did not study for my next exam. I quickly took out my notes and revised till it was almost to midnight. My vision was slowly becoming smaller and smaller. I put my notes aside and went to bed hoping that I will be able to do my upcoming exam.
