EXAM FEVERS

So we have the dreaded exams coming up. I'm typing this right now while having my books scattered around me, my notebook opened to make an outline about a Pakistan Studies question. What happened was that I was looking on the internet for notes on this rubbish history that will never happen again.
I found nothing.

　

~ What the hell. This is supposed to be the World Wide Web. Are you telling me no braniac could bother writing about this crap?~

Anyway, I thought that maybe alot of people out there would be having their mid-term exams too. So I thought that I'd share some of my tips here., I mean, since I manage to scrape together a respectable grade with my failing Urdu.



~It's not that I don't try. I mean, would you want to bother trying if the teacher kept failing you? I hate being failed. So I'm going to keep failing...~

When faced with all this revision, I try to make myself in the mood by writing out a plan. What do I need to study? What day? What topics? What should I do today? What about that Biology chapter? I never understand chemical calculations. To sum up- HELP!!

~Oh help me... This stuff is poison! It should be banned by International Law!!! WHERE ARE US SANCTIONS WHEN YOU NEED THEM?!?!?!?!~

I always keep a spare notebook for it. It's also handy for doodling when you're day dreaming.
Yes. I also personally think that studying at night is better than studying in the day. During the day, there's always the bustle going on in the house. The maasi coming and going, cleaning going on, breakfast, clean up (if you're a girl) taking out the trash (if you're a guy). So much time gets used up. Plus, I don't even feel like studying in the morning.
So I prefer night. Not only is it nice and quiet, but my siblings are also asleep. So I basically have the house to myself. Although I go to sleep right at midnight. I mean, come on. I love my sleep. During school nights, I get tired at eight, so that's when my schedule shifts to waking up at Fajr. I'm also trying to start a routine of going jogging out with my parents in the morning. My mind wakes up then and I can study much better.

~I mean, look at them. They might look innocent and all, but... Yeah... I'm sure every oldest sibling knows what I'm talking about... :) ~

I also read this tip somewhere. Memory is associated with smell as well. Thats when a load of perfume, hand sanitizers and lotions come in handy. Before studying, apply the thingy whereever you're supposed to apply it. (Lotion on hands, sanitizer on hands, perfumes on clothes, you get the point-). And then study. Your brain would tag the memories with the scent. Then right before the exam, apply the lotion etc again. It should jog your mind awake.
I've tried this trick a little. For Physics mostly. I got an A that month. Do you need any more proof? I plan to use this as my last resort anyway. When I have a final list of concepts I need to revise seriously (like memorizing those quotes for Islamiat) I'll bring out my big guns.
I just thought I'd share this so that maybe someone out there who is panicking about the exam for which they have no idea about what to do could find out what I'm doing. YAAAY!

I'm pretty much average. (People who know me will disagree, so I'll spill ze beans for you to eat) (Make sure ya don't eat my dust, muahahaha- ok, ok! Sorry!)

Yes. I am an American citizen, born in New York and living in Florida for most of my life. But my parents decided to move to Pakistan for reasons I'll tell you all about later. (Focus on me right now... Yes, me! I'll be famous someday, don't forget my name! And if you do, I'll sentence you to de- Ok. I'm sorry- won't do it again)

Anyway. I moved to Karachi where I met the Princess at school. Wow, all I remember was that our friendship started from the first day and it went pretty high. We sat with each other, talked and ate and even sat in the same van together, had our battles, and laughs and jokes and wow. Two years went by so quickly... I moved to Islamabad- the Snob City Central!

(This remark is not aimed at you guys, Yuki, Guren and the rest of my class. This, my friends, is aimed at...

THE BREAKDANCING DUDE!!!

XD

I love randomosity! <3)

Anyway again, I'd just like to say that living in a foreign country doesn't make me any better than you guys, except for the fact that I have seen things you imagine about. And I see alot of negative points everywhere. I think the proper phrase is that I have a broader view.

Other than that, I'm a clueless Pakistani! I'm a Patthan... Uhh... Distantly a Patthan. I think. And I dunno, but alot of people turn out to be related to me in wacky ways... And I love Cornettos! And Dairy Milk, especially the song. The 'Dairy milk ki gari' song... The Coco and Mo song sux.

No offense meant to Candyland or whatever, but I think you're a ripoff of Wonka.

Don't worry- I'm always spouting opinions when I'm in the mood, which is usually when I'm writing. Gomenasai! <3

I loves heart, by the way. That includes Kingdom Hearts.

That reminds. Once I picked up my cellphone and answered it. I said, "Hello, Assalam alaikum?"

Person; "Walaikum assalam, aap kesi hen?"

Me; (Completely puzzled) "Ummmmm..... Fine... (mumble) I guess...?

Person; "Aap busy to nahin hen?"

Me; (suspiciously thinking that the phone must be for Amee, since it's an auntie who probably knows me, but I don't know her) Aap ko kis se bat karni he?

Person; "Aap se hi karni he"

Me; "Okayyy... (mumbles) freak... (speaks normal again) Kia baat karni he?

Person; "Agar aap busy hen, I'll call later"

Me; "Wait" (hands phone to Amee)

Amee; "Jee, kis se baat karni he? Hm? Bhai Sahab, mere paas time nhi he baat karni ki. Allahafiz"

And I was shocked and felt sorry for the auntie who got called "Bhai sahab" by my mom. But it turned out that it was a guy. And I mentally beat my head on the wall for sypathizing with a psychopath Pakistani. I mean, what the french toast?!

(This phrase is my phrase, or I'll burn you into french toast that is burnt... And black. And yucky)

Yes. And two minutes later, I got a message with a heart and it said something like "Yeh dil aap k liye. Khush raho" and I was like 'What the pancake?'

I think I've written alot. So I'll sign off now.

(What should I sign............ Ah, okay!)

Ciao!
