Phew
So I've spent the last week within the same four walls revising and reading revising and reading god what a small room. I wonder whether it's because I hadn't done an exam for almost 4 years but this morning I have never been more nervous. I went into the exam hall a quivering mess trying to think of anything I had been revising and coming up blank. I seem to get this crazy mental block when I am highly stressed where I read the first question and not only do I not understand it but I don't even understand what the words mean. I sit and I breath and I breath some more and force myself to calm down. I read it again and suddenly exam Andrea takes over. She starts to scribble furiously, so much so that her finger has that little indent that you get for the rest of the day. People are scared that her paper might burst into flames due to the speed at which she writes. (Ok I might have made that last bit up but I want to stress just how much scribbling was involved). Anyway despite running out of time, (due to an idiotic mix-up with the timings), I answered all the questions. The feeling of elation as you walk out of an exam is a pretty awesome feeling. I wonder if it's similar to taking drugs. At least I only have to wait till April to find out the results. April!! Pfft lazy external examiners.  16:25
