the relief!

from exams..

exams was a killer for the past 3 weeks..
although it was only trials, i think i worked and studied really hard this time more than ever,
but still a last minute job(when am i gonna change la)

i stayed up so late at night for the first week to study, including weekends with only coffee and more coffee to keep me awake..
coffee don't usually work for me so u know how much i drank in order for it to kick in la ..

i was so exhausted by the time the second week came,
they were all the toughest papers so i knew i had to just get though at least that week,
thurs was the last paper that week(i think) so i just had to hold on till then,
but no sleep and too much coffee took it's toll.
on wed night i almost died, i just coudn't absorb anything anymore and i haven't did any physics past year at all (thanks to all that chemistry)
so i sat staring at the book for 2 hours without anything going in, i didn't even understand a single thing i did last time.
my head experienced something it never did before, it wasn't a typical headache, in fact no head ache at all but it was like it was going to explode, and i coudn't put in any information anymore.
i didnt wanna sleep coz i felt guity of not finishing,
but thank God Yi Koon suggested that i sleep and wake up at 3 in the morning to do.
i was so hesitant at first because this technique never worked for me in the past.
after realising that it was my only option left, i took that incredibly huge risk of not studying anything (not doing past year) and going to bed.
however, thank God this time i manage to wake up and everything became clear in the morning.

so, Thank God for helping me and really being my source of strength throughout this period.
i really thank You. i feel we often don't give God enough credit or appreciation.
How am i going to continue studying like that , especially going to a medical field.
i only know that it can be only through God's grace and strength and i can make it.
so, in time to come, when i finally graduate, if ever i not give God the credit, PLEASE SLAP ME(i mean it ) .

you know in interviews they often ask you to describe your strength and weaknesses,
well, here's mine
it's the same for both

weakness: i am not independant
strength: i am dependant on God
