Ever sat through....
...an exam which left you wondering whether you were at some other examination centre, giving the wrong exam?
Today was my first such experience (and hopefully my last one at that.) Today's paper was something out of the Twilight Zone - eerie music and all - seriously. The first thing I did, after going through the questions, was look around to make sure that I was in the right classroom. The second thing I did was look at the header of the exam paper, wishing to God that the professor goofed up his exam paper with that of some other course. Unfortunately, it just wasn't my day today.
One good thing about being in the final year is that it makes one care very little about these things. I was hardy panicking, even though I should have been. Instead, I kicked off my shoes and sat there - even humming a little tune to myself. Lately I've realised that life is more than just sitting in some dark and dingy room, all tensed, writing an exam. Thats why these days I make it a point to sit at the very end of the classroom - near the window - so that I'm never far from escaping to my own reality.
