11: 40 am, October 21, 2008 officially marks the end of the sem for me. Yay!!
I refrained from blogging about the exams since i don't want to prejudice other exams just because of the disastrous events of the first two exams. I am in a "suspended state" so to speak. I even refrained from thinkning about those two exams since i have to study for the other two. But now, it's finally over and I can rant all i want. hehe... just a joke. I am so happy that the sem is over that I can't really be all negative and cranky. hehe...
First, the Consti exam... :( [Monday last week]
I finished about 40 minutes before the time. This, however, does not mean that I am confident in my answers. I doubt there is anybody in our block who could say that he/she is confident about all his answers. Oh well... what's Art 12 Sec 12 again?? Even up to now, i refuse to open my Constitution and verify my answers. What done is done. Neh?
Crim... T_T [Friday last week]
the infamous Sir Barry Exam strikes again. I don't have a word for it really...
Persons. :D [Monday this week--> yesterday]
At last. A professor merciful enough to give an exam that is actually answearble by students. My blockmates are actually smiling (for the first time) after an exam.
Legal Method. [Tuesday this week--> today]
Hehe... you won't believe what happened to me today. I was under the impression that the exam for legal method is tomorrow at 10 am in the morning. After the Persons exam yesterday, I pretty much bummed around my room since I though that i still have a day to study. About 9:40 in the morning, this day, I received a call from Edsie-chan (thanks much!!) that our block's schedule for the Molo exam was actually today, at 10 am! Hehe. I haven't study and all. i don't know anything about the Latin terms used in Statutory Construction.
Anyway, so I hurriedly left grab a taxi and went to UP Law. On the way, I am trying to memorize latin terms as much as possible. Meanwhile I am praying to God for everything to be okay. Again, I found myself at the end of the rope. There is nothing much I could really do about the situation.
I arrived at UP Law. The test has not started yet. I was in a foul mood and under considerable stress. Yay. Me in a foul mood is something people should beware of. I calmed myself. After all, it is statutory construction. We've been exposed to all sorts of statutory constructions since we have been reading cases right? Anyway. The exam started.
i was uber relieved at the type of the exam. it is not super easy, but it is the easiest exam that I have taken so far. I did not need the latin terms in answering it (yey!) and I was able to answer the exam quite nicely. I am even smiling afterwards.
Lesson of the Story:
(talagang may ganito...O_O)
When you are at the end of the rope, don't look down and ponder on the depth of the fall. Look up. You'll never know when a hand will reach for you. Hehe. I was distraught about failing the exam that I never realized that God has prepared (in advance, mind you) a way out for me. You see, there was no way I am gonna be able to study whatever that needs to be studied. I was sure that I will fail the exam. I never imagined that the exam questions could be answered with what i have in my head. His hands was there all along. It does not really matter whether I studied or not. What matters is, during the exam, i was able to answer the questions. Another act of saving grace...
