End Of 4 Days Marathon

OMG!!!

Sibeh SONG ahhhhhh~~~!!!

I feel so high!!!

RAWR!!!








I can feel it~~~!





I can smell it~~~!






I can almost touch it~~~!!!















HOLIDAYS~~~!!!






My long awaited


HOLIDAYS~~~!!!


COME TO PAPA~~~!!!











Seriously, I STRONGLY DISCOURAGED anyone from attempting such stunts again (numerous consecutive papers).

Unless you think the papers are "darn easy" or you is "Shu Shu Got Train Before"...

...

...

"Taking a toil" on your body isn't even sufficient to describe its effects.

It is having all your life force drained out of you - and that you're no longer part of the living, and neither are you dead. A walking, mindless zombie.

Let me take you through my life in the past 6 days or so...


Saturday/Sunday

Ever tried tossing and flipping around in bed for FOUR HOURS and be unable to sleep? That's what happened to me on Sunday. 12am to 4am.


Monday - Tuesday

Multiprogramming at its best - Forensic Science video lectures playing in the background 24 hours while I mug through the other subjects


Tuesday - Wednesday

Reached home at 9pm and started 204... To my HORROR, I have forgotten near 50% of everything.

So I started practicing...till 3am. I tried to sleep, but the moment I close my eyes - all I can see are equations, functions, formulas, PYP questions... Literally FLOODED MY HEAD. I want to "blank my mind" but nothing I do works...

No point wasting time tossing around in bed...

Got up and did more papers...

...


Wednesday - Thursday

I am REALLY REALLY tired... especially after the cursed 204 paper... but I can't afford to get any rest - It's the final lap...

...

Slept at 1am, woke up at 5am and did some last minute revisions...



...

Sparta may be superhuman.

But a superhuman is still a human.

He is not a god.

...

I am so deprived of sleep... and I'm totally exhausted...

I'm totally exhausted...

Never ever try this again.

Never in my life.

This thing will kill your brain cells, and SHORTEN YOUR LIFE SPAN

I've never been this tensed and stressed over some dumb papers before.

...

...

Now if you excuse me...

I just want to get some NICE, WELL DESERVED QUALITY SLEEP...

...

...

...

...

...

Before I wake up, and make my last stand against the "final boss".

AND ONE BY ONE THEY SHALL FALL!!!

The Epic Battle...

And so...

The battle is about to begin.



The most perilous battle...



What we're facing here...



Are some of the most notorious villains and monsters.



One that needs "verbal regurgitation".




Some of the most ambiguous enemies & content.



Some of the toughest and most hard-to-crack subjects...



The heaviest workload in history...



4 continuous days of relentless assault...



And the odds seem insurmountable...



BUT IT ALL DOESN'T MATTER!!!





BECAUSE...














THIS IS SPARTA!!!

It's the dreaded period of every student life...

...

...

Something that will bring about a drastic change in our lives...

...

Eat hearty my men...

FOR TONIGHT, WE DINE IN HELL~~~!!!!

Original Title: 你是我的眼, By 蕭煌奇
Title: 就快要测验




如果就快要测验
就要努力从白天读到黑夜
才能准确的在考卷中牵到A的手
如果就快要测验
就不能够继续到处遨游
就得好好的在家里, 跟着书本拥抱

如果就快要测验
生命一定完全不同
可能我想要的我喜欢的我爱的
都不一样

眼前的A不是A
你说的PASS是什么PASS
别人说得很简单
是我成绩中那团叉叉背后的烂GRADE

我望向这考卷
却只能看见一片虚无
为什么读了那么多现在脑子里, 一片空白!!!
(是不是上帝在我眼前遮住了帘, 忘了掀开!!!)

就快要测验, 带我领略考题的变化
就快要测验, 带我穿越考试的烦恼
就快要测验, 带我阅读浩瀚的书海
因为就快要测验
让我看见这答案就在我眼前

(因为过完了测验
就会看见那假期就在我眼前
就在我眼前...)

Extreme Times Call For Extreme Measures...

Yes indeed...

...

Only extreme measures can turn things around now...

...

Before it's too late to salvage the situation...

...



我就站在NTU, 清晨的广场
在麦当劳,买了包早餐
一堆东西,我还没读完
那成绩太烂我不敢看
NTU的广场, 拥挤的走廊
我一个人,坐在LEE WEE NAM*
不远地方, 很多人在MUG
什么时候一切才会完...

(*Lee Wee Nam is a library in NTU)
