Before exam: Cool, calm and sedated.

During reading time: Freaking out cause I expected an essay.

During writing time: Cool, calm and sedated again.. was writing abnormally fast and had the time management going good.

After exam: Very full. Had chips, cheeseburger, 6 nuggets and a Coke at Macca's. :(

Relaxation was the key for me. Pretty relaxed in the morning, felt good physically and mentally which is very important if you wanna feel good before during and after.
Probably main reason I thought I did really well.

my hand wasn't shaking I just hated text 2. I couldn't think of any good techniques apart from juxtaposition and enjambment. I thought hsc was supposed to be the easiest exam. Well I guess they mark it fairer phew :)

Before: Fine, until I arrived at school. On my way to the hall this stupid teacher told me I was late and everyone else would be in the exam room already by now. Needless to say, that freaked me out. And it wasn't true, they were still outside. :mad1:
During: Pretty calm. Took me a while to identify techniques in that stupid poem, but I managed it in the end. My hand was aching by the end though.
After: Relieved, tired, worried about English Modules on Wednesday! :(

Before -- I little worried because I knew shit all

During -- Running out of time...

After -- Other than my hand cramping up when I tied up my books with the little stringy thing, (It was a good thing it happened after the exam, and not during ;)) Bloody fantastic! One more exam and NO ENGLISH EVER!!

After wednesday, I'm gonna be psyched!

Before: Suprisingly calm until i got to the hall and everyone was freaking out....
During: Slightly panicky but OK cause I had a plan for the speech
After: Relief...until I started going over the exam in my head and realising all the techniques that I missed in the comprhension part

I figure it's over and done with now...no more Skrzynecki and definately no more Stimulus booklet.

Whats done is done and what will be will be...hehehe!!!

Before: Shitting my pants, couldn't sleep, didn't want to do the exam because of possible failure and the end of my life (well I think I'm using hyperbole there, HA a technique!!!!).
During: Ahh... It's here I may as well make the most of it, writing at the speed of light, got a blister.
After: Looking at my blister and drinking a large Breaka, going home to have a lasange, laying down in front of the TV and going to sleep.

Outlook for Wednesday's exam? I believe the same, argh King Lear SUCKS!!
