Good evening ladies and gentlemen, trust you all are doing great? It hasn't been easy for me but I thank God that he won't lete down. So my examination started on Monday though I didn't have any on that day but the next day rather which was on Tuesday and I thank God that the first examination I had was a departmental course. It wasn't really tough for me but most of my course mates freezed when they saw the questions. Let me not give y'all have story, let's go into the full details.
I woke up early yesterday, uttered some prayers to God, did my chores and read my books. I stayed outside my room to read so I can get away from the noise my the music my roommate was playing. I had my first examination in the tertiary institution yesterday and so I had to prepare before hand, the examination was scheduled for 3pm so I had enough time to read but I felt somehow restless and I couldn't concentrate so I had to prepare and went to school especially when I heard we had a meeting with our Head of Department.

I had to quickly fix breakfast so I can eat before leaving the house because I knew I'd returned in the evening. I had small soup at home so I decided to eat it as breakfast but I had no garri at home so I stepped out to the closest grocery store to my house to get some. When I got there, I met the vendor and told her what I needed and how much own I wanted to purchase and she served immediately, I paid and went back home. When I got home, I boiled hot water and made the garri and when I finished making it, I noticed it was too plenty and I wasn't going to finish it alone but I had no one at home to share the food with but then, I decided to eat all so it'll serve me till evening when I'll return from school.

I didn't understood the way I ate yesterday, at some point I looked at myself in disbelief as I finished three cups of garri alone. I think it's examination pressure, so after eating I gave it some minutes to digest before going to school. When I got to school, I didn't see anyone at the counselling centre so I walked down to our faculty sit out to check if my course mates were there but I found no one there so lastly I decided to go to one of our lecture hall. While going there, I checked our course group to see if I'll get any hint on where they are and luckily, I saw an information that said they were at the hall I was heading to so I doubled my pace.

When I got to the hall, I saw few of my course mates and was wondering if the rest didn't see the information of the meeting we were to have with our Head of Department on the group. While I was still lost in thoughts, our Head of Department walked in with some documents and said she came to have revision with us. Omo, I didn't know how to react, we had examination to write in the next few hours and you came to confuse our confusion? I felt like walking out of the class shaa but I had to calm down and let the course representative speak on our behalf and he said exactly what was on my mind. Lastly, the woman left with her revision and advised us to read our notes word by word and from cover to cover.
Arriving the lecture hall
I followed the lecturer out of the class and went directly to the library, there I found some of my course mates and friends who were not present at the lecture hall. I joined them in reading and also brought out a paper which contained some questions I formulated for myself and asked my friends to give answers to them. I also advised them to work on those questions and know them as they knew their name, little dis I know that seventh percent of the questions I wrote down will be asked. One of my friend was actually making mockery of the questions I wrote down saying it wasn't close to the questions we'll see.

The long awaited time came and I went into the hall prepared to face reality. I was certain of doing my best as I had prepared adequately for it but something funny happened, immediately I got the question paper I felt a strong urge to urinate and I swore not to step out of the hall under done writing the examination. Luckily, almost all the questions I formulated came out and I supplied answers to the questions within twenty minutes but one escaped my memory and I sat there till I remembered it and write it down. When I was about standing up to go submit my paper, my friend begged me not to go that I should help her first so I gave her answers to some questions and left. Immediately I left the hall, it felt like I was going to urinate on my pants so I hurriedly went to the schools restroom and relieved myself.
When I came back to school, I saw my course mates outside the hall and there were conversing among themselves so I walked down to my friend and asked her how the examination was and the response I got wasn't appealing but she thanked me for helping her saying she forgot everything she read. She asked if I had materials for the next examination and I told her "yes" and even brought them out so she pleased with me to let her photocopy it. We walked down to convo park and photocopied the material and we went back to our different homes.

When I got home, it was almost 7pm so I had my bath and came online to blog. While blogging, my good friend chatted me up and asked if I had eaten and I replied 'No' so he sent me some money for food. I bought groceries and floated berries instead and passed it as dinner so I cold prepare a good meal the next day. After blogging, I had dinner before going to bed. I slept early because I wanted to cover up for the previous night I sacrificed for reading. That's all for yesterday my friends, hope you enjoyed reading my Tuesday dairy? Hope to see you on my next post, take care.
