Of the Prayer to No One
Countdown to the End of the Nightmare Without a Dream:4 Days
Tomorrow,or rather today,the Mid Years starts.The Nightmare without a dream.The Dream without the Sleep.It is reality,a nightmare in real life.Nothing is scary about examinations actually.Just a test thrown to you to test your knowledge on certain things.Life sounds easy like that,doesnt it?Well,lets do some calculation of life now.Take Life as a constant,add that to the numerous amount of notes we have to study,then add that to the tutorials we have to do,plus the amount of text you need to understand.Then add all of those to the text you need to memorize.Label the answer as (1).Find the amount of time you spend other than the time you are studying and working on anything related to school.With that,you times that amount by 2/3.(1/3 is used for sleeping.)With the answer obtained,label it as (2).Now,minus (2) from (1).The answer you get is probably a very large,real number.You just proved,that life with examination,is hell.I shall name this,"Hell Number".

The truth is,i havent been doing much really.The worst thing about going into the examination hall,is to go in without anything up in your mind.The worst part is when the clock ticks by and the pen you are holding in your hand,is trembling and slipping off your palms,as sweat slowly washes away the friction.You start to panick,and you start to tap your feet.Spinning your pen isnt helping,and neither is scratching your head.You start to blink,and with every blink the words start to disappear until nothing is left on the paper.You watch as time goes by,and the paper still remains empty,not to mention your mind now.Overwhelmed by fear,you joke with your friend how badly you just did for your exam,then as soon as you step out of the hall you ran home with the quickest pace possible.Yes,that happened.And im sure it will happen again.I always do a prayer before i sleep.Despite having no religion at all,prayers have been a tradition for me.Who do i pray to?Whoever's out there.Jesus Christ,Allah,Buddha,some other nameless gods,i dont care.As long as they have the power over wisdom,they are who i am praying to.(Since they are all addressed as "God" most of the time,it makes things a lot easier for me.)This time,i dont supposed a prayer would help me anyway.Whoever's there,will be laughing at me tomorrow during the papers."What did i tell you?" says the voice from an unknown source.Though it wouldnt make much of a difference if i prayed,i prayed anyway.Whoever is willing to help,help.If not,as expected.I wouldnt be surprise,if all the gods sit in front of the television set and watch the TV program called,"The DownFall of WeiLien!",then start laughing at it with popcorns and cokes.Yeah,its all me.No point depending on superior beings,when you cannot even do things yourself.Oh well,what are prayers for.Prayers are for the insecure.If you are confident,then prayers are merely for luck.I need luck,but i need a lot more than that.Answers,are what i need.And that nobody can give.(Unless i sneak into the school right now at 12mn and steal the answer key.Since my house is so near no one would notice.)I should blame myself.But then again,i am studying for the things that i have totally no interest in,and would probably not aid me in the profession i want to take.(Writing,directing,scripting,music.)At least i dont see what the study of Financing,Government Tools,Unemployment,Studies of Rocks,Landforms,Hydrological Cycle,Atmosphere,Differential Equations,Curve Sketching,Maclurin's theory would help in any of those.I mean,how much of the stuff we study NOW,actually comes in handy in the later part of our lives?This,is not the same as driving tests.You learn,what you use.We are NOT learning what is practical now.I bet more than half of the people now,wouldnt be using their knowledge to earn a living when they are in the business world.It is like preparing for an EarthQuake in Singapore.What the hell for?Beats me.
