Sunday evening, I was having dinner with Sheau Maan. It was a happy time; we haven't had such a long chat since last year(?). She mentioned that during exam period, we will hear people screaming every night. "Ya meh?" I express my disbelief.
After I returned to my room, I started doing my lab report that I had to submit the next day. Gosh! The lab report wanted me to write about something I learned little...streeeesss!!!!!!!!!!!! The last time I felt so stressful was the day before UEC Maths. I set aside the lab report and started to do the organic chemistry tutorial on Tuesday...also cannot do...at that time I understood why do people scream...I felt that I wanted to scream too...I decided to go to bed and leave these aside until the next day.
Monday morning, the situation didn't get better. The lab report had to be finished by 1:30 p.m. (my lab class) and I still had no idea about it. With the assistance of a coursemate, I managed to complete the report. But my stress didn't end here. I started thinking and questioning myself; what if I cannot cope with my studies, especially organic chemistry? What if I failed the exam? What if I ended up without a degree? ... I started to question my ability to major in Chemistry...
Finally, I realized that the purpose I come here to NTU; I come here to learn new things, not to expect I had already known everything that is to be learned this four years. I have to manage time properly: not to leave things until the last minute, sleep earlier to avoid sleeping during lectures... I still have four years to go...
P/S: Thanks to JJ for encouraging me during my stress time and Bookworm for letting me to bother him on that morning! Cheers!
