finally breaking free from the pendulum kind of life
the type of life that submerged me for the past months
oscillating from the 'tensed-up' mode to that of being 'overly-relaxed';
between sense of urgency for mugging to near-hatred towards books;
the anxiety at the start to the disappointment that resulted eventually
a dozen of years of continuous studying
all in exchange for half-a-dozen months of rest
and the bright future that we all expect
yet, it's never up to us to lament
it's the price that we have to pay
'survival of the fittest' is no doubt the ruling principle
this period of time is somewhat similar to trimesters in pregnancy
from now to the release of results marks the first trimester; the next couple of months waiting for admission to tertiary institutes will be the second; and facing the year-end module test rounds off the term.
in the first, getting prepared for the sudden turn of events
(perhaps like miscarriages)
should be quite smooth for the 2nd if things are well-taken care of
eventually, it's to welcome the first challenge in this new phase of life
and that is, to 'deliver' (your results) successfully
didn't really know what prompted me to type the above
perhaps i really had too much free time to spare
it's just this sudden lost in targets and goals after the last paper
but well, one would recover from that in no time
especially when we embark on the list of things that we want to fulfil previously but simply couldn't due to the miserably short 24-hour-day
till then shall we meet...
