my Exam Culture
How apt, a day for Sociology and a day to talk about my exam culture with it's own special rituals and routines to get myself in the proper frame of mind for exams. I guess, in a way, it calms me down to know that a routine helps establish a certain form of consistency. Like I guess, sleep + waking early helps ensure I get to the examination halls on time and well today is a bad example of that, by the time I reach, people were already seated inside!
Right, first up, sleep, I need sleep. Lots.
Been getting less and less though as the semesters go by.
Need to please somebody up there, soul searching, say a little prayer.
Need to have a quick revision / look through before I step into the examination hall.
Need to arrive early.
Need to generate confidence, regardless of whether I should or shouldn't.
Need to listen to my exam anthem. If no battery, =(
Well, talking about my anthem, these have been my choice of songs so far. Haha, can't remember Year 1 Sem 1 though. So.. my worst semester linked without a choice of song, haha.. now that explains it...
... kim ah joong - maria ...
vs
... blondie - maria (CHIPMUNK'D) ...
I have no idea why the blondie version sounds so f-ed up. But its funny. EXTREMELY. Click HERE for the original version. It should work if you download it I suppose.
Anyway, the above list should be taken with a pinch of salt. Especially having taken so many exams now, many of the above have been broken or ignored and the end results are still alright. Perhaps, not as great but still decent. It just calms me down.
