Urgh!
The first O Level exam was yesterday, Maths paper 1. It was ok, one or two seriously messed up questions that left me really pissed off.. just couldn't figure them out for the life of me... Otherwise all was good.
Luke and I arrived at the BMICH for the English language paper today about half an hour early and waited around the entrance for everyone to come so we could all go in together. By ten to four another 5 people had turned up and we headed for the hall to see if the rest of the gang were waiting there. Nope. No one was in sight. Strange hmmmm... I think it was Luke, or maybe Fuzzy had the smart idea for us just to go into the hall since the exam was going to start in five minutes. We opened the door and the room was empty. FUUUUCK!! No tables, no chairs, no nothing.
We all ran out frantically trying to find where the hell our exam was about to start but all the randomers who had arrived minutes before had disappeared!! I actually cannot explain how much of a panic we were, months of preparation leading up to the big thing and we couldn't find the damn hall!!
We followed some wild goose chase that took us I swear ten times around the BMICH main building, to the examiners canteen, back to the entrance and then to the Islamic Studies movie room (?!?!). It wasn't a pretty sight. Imagine a whole lot of sweating teenagers just galloping around like wild horses. LMAO
When we finally got on the right track to the little BMICH building some staff guy called us back and we rushed back up hundreds of stairs (ok it wasn't hundreds but by this time I was dying)only to find that we had to go all the way back to the little building. URGHHHH!!
We ran into to exam room and 400 faces sneered up at us!! It didn't help that the floor of the hall was nice shiney granite. SCREECH SCREECH clatter clatter. Yup! We couldn't have been any quieter either. The examiners looked at us reprovingly and told us to get to work... One of the more awkward moments of my life...
Anyway if anyone is reading this im going to bed now. Got "abusive" exams tommoro. Lit and Maths p2. Please send positive vibes.........
