Sorry for the lack off updates you guys, these mid terms have really been taking up my free time. Lucky for me my last test is tomorrow, plus I have the whole week off after that. Well if you know me I'm always getting myself in some crazy stunt in order to help out my fellow classmates. I find it very strange how everybody can act all calm throughout the term, but come test time they are so afraid. No matter how many times people warn me about helping others will only make me stress and tired, I still be a fool and do it anyway. I have the perfect example, I have a classmate name Scott, and I noticed him always slacking off when it comes to his college work. When a essay is due, not once has he ever given it in on time, which results in the teacher deducting marks. I remember about two weeks ago I told him that he should really settle down and focus on the mid terms coming up. But no, he wants to keep up this "bad boy" act and pretend as though he isn't concerned about the tests, and keep goofing off. So guess begs for my help just the other day...you guessed it, Scott. But in the end, I find it hard to say no, and eventually help the poor soul.
Anyway I had my Sociology test today, and man was I nervous. I arrived in the lecture theatre a few minutes early to do a quick study session. Then three girls sit in my row, and begin talking all loud, totally ignoring the fact that I am studying. You know me; I don't like making a scene, so I pack up my books and waited until the test was going to start. Just when you think it couldn't get worse, this other girl came, and wanted to join in the trash talking session. So let me ask you a question, if you want somebody to kindly give up their seat so you can sit with your friends, how do you ask? Well instead off asking me politely, she some what slapped my shoulder, talking all loud and obnoxious saying "Look her boy I need you to get off my seat so I can talk with my girlfriends!" The room was pretty much full at this time, and I'm sure everybody heard her attitude. The whole room went quiet, waiting to hear my comeback. Not wanted to be kicked out of the room and fail the test, I threw my hands in the air in a surrender gesture, and got up, and let her take the seat. I will never forget her expression; it was as if she was expecting us to have a little argument, well not to today girl. Why does trouble always come too me, what did I do? :S They say nice guys finish last, funny, I feel like a first place winner, so that was corny, so what lol.
After my exam I made my way to the college student hall to have a few laughs. Surprisingly it wasn't as full today, but I did see one of my good friends Kieran, sitting on the sofa deep in thought. So I decided to join him, and ask what was up. He told me about the math test I was going to take tomorrow, and judging from the look on his face, it wasn't pretty. You see we had to review about 5 different chapters for the test, and I advised him to do so. But he allowed his ego to get in the way, and he only went through two chapters. Now he's in a state of shock because he knows he failed bad, and now is counting on me to pass, he claims my success will prove that my way was a much better choice, even though it was, regardless if I fail or not. So I promised him that I would study hard and pass easy, and then he left. It's strange, I usually leave student hall with a smile on my face, with no worries....but today I left with an emotionless face, and very deep in thought.
