Thoughts in the time of exams

It is said”When a person dies, the whole life come in front of his eyes,and he realises what he has done, what he has achieved, and what he has lost.” Well something similar happens just before the exams,the only difference is that life does not end.......Hey no!! I am not going to boar you with exams tension, syllabus or any of those craps.But I want to tell that we realise just before the exams what we have done throughtout the sem.Have we done anything........anything at all.....No we haven't.
We didn't even bother to go to classes or take notes of the classes that we have missed(when counted...it will reach to infinity),but hey we are present in all our classes according to the attendence resigter. Proxies always help and this is the only part we are good at. We realise what mistakes we have committed.......We have bunked classes to see some stupid hindi movies(no need to mension the names ,there are a lot these days),We have played cards,counterstrike whole night long only to miss classes in the morning(Well do we still call 10am.....a morning??.....God knows).
Mistakes are fun sometimes...you do them even when you know its a mistake.
Now as the days progress and exams come nearer and nearer,the tension gets build up.....you can find guys running in the corridors with notebooks in their hands.....and seeing that you get more tensed......Well does anybody know the boiling point of the brain......it must be high else many of our brains would have gone(now I understand what is skull for........)
Then there are exam breaks, most of which is spend in copying those jungling words into our blank notebooks.The breaks are over and we haven't read a bit!!!
Then comes the exams days,and exams hours.......words and symbols are all swimming in the question paper( Taare Zameen Par......am I also suffering from some disease),well we have written something on our answersheet(well our names atleast...else the whole paper would have been blank).The exam hour are over and we take a deep breath...and somehow escape the discussion of the question among the toppers(damn those muggers!!!)
When the answersheet are shown,we have got somemarks atleast(partmarking adds to lot.....).And then there come those regular dialouges”You have performance is very poor....tell me you problem.....anyways I have somehow managed to pass you this time......try to do better next time”
“Yes Sir!!!(thank you...thank you a lot).Sir I will do better next sem,I promise.But do we really keep our promise.....well they are made to be broken........and there we go again cards, counterstrikes and movies...........
