A funny thing happen, on the way to exams...

Postby b.scheller » Tuesday 13 December 2005 8:05:03am

Well, I'm in second year of political science at university. Right now, as you probably now are the Winter exams. Of course, all schedules are posted online so each student can check. Well I did, wrote down all the exams on a little piece of paper on the fridge.

Today, was my political philosophy exam. Scheduled from 12-15.00. I drove to school (which is roughly 45 min. on the highway via 120 km/hr) and once I got there. I checked the little exam schedule notice board, just to check which gym I would be having my exam in. It turns out, that the exam wasn't scheduled for 12-15.00 but for 16.00-17.00.

My heart skipped a beat, not out of joy, but because I had been dead set on thinking that it was from 12-15.00 and perhaps I might have made another mistake and wrote down the wrong day. Of course that was just pure panicking and in fact I wrote down the correct day.

None the less, it's only 10.20 and I'm stuck here for the next 5 hours and 40 minutes. I'm not going to bother to go home, it's just a waste of gas and time.

I frequently make mistakes like this one, looking at the wrong line or just having some other thoughts.

Good luck with the exams!
