Day 08: Full Steam Ahead

Duchess Door

I had a post lined up for tomorrow morning, set to be automatically published at 6 a.m. incase I never got the chance. It was prewritten (obviously) and, at the time of writing, I thought it creatively and accurately expressed what I was feeling about the physics exams. It just so happens that they the first two papers are tomorrow. However, I feel a lot different to what I felt a few days ago. I wrote the entry in light of the concept of DEFCON, nuclear war and nuclear winter. It was an interesting piece, since I have a niche for the tones and images associated with nuclear fallout. At the time, it really set the mood, but thankfully I have gotten past that.

I am feeling fairly optimistic about tomorrow. Not so optimistic to the point that I’ll know I will ace it – I am fully aware I won’t do absolutely amazing, maybe average at best, but I understand that. I think the fact that the exam is tomorrow is what is getting me excited. It’s very hard for people other than myself to get me optimistic; that’s something about me that I find incredibly useful because I tend to find myself seeking good things when I’m on my own, but it also has a reverse effect where there are occasions when people try to make me happy and I find it to be a nuisance. Getting back to the point, I feel a lot more happier than I was previously. I just hope that everything goes well. I’m looking forward to paper 1 (multiple choice) because I both really enjoy that I tend to do well in. I’m not looking forward to paper 2 (extended answers/written) because I just don’t like the difficulty of it towards the end. Paper 3 (option-chapters) is going to be a nice finish to the infamous subject since I can really focus on the two chapters that we have chosen to study as our options. Yes, it is last-minute revision, but it’s really helped so far.

So, with that, I hope that the next two days go well. The next entry will probably be very short, but it really depends how I feel.
