Its almost upon me. The dreaded exams. Yet I'm surprisingly relaxed, for apparently no good reason since I've only studied properly 3 of 20 modules. The stupid perfectionist and procrastinator inside me decided I would make a shorter version of a popular anatomy book amongst medical students whilst studying anatomy. Although I do love anatomy, I'm now going to phail because I've ignored all the other subjects.
I want to be stressed and be 'hitting the books' but my mind seems to be ignorant of the impending doom I am about to face on Friday. This is even more strange considering I was incredibly worried and stressed during 4 weeks of Easter holiday, each day of which I worked fairly hard but after running most of the marathon I seem to be limping towards the finish line. In fact, I would extend the analogy to having broken a leg and now crawling towards the finishing line leaving a trail of blood in my wake.
I can only seek solace in the fact that despite how matter hard I try (or lack thereof) Allah's (SWT) command will prevail. I think as I limp, I should be hitting the prayer mat more than the books. But then again Allah (SWT) always helps those who help themselves. As with most things in life, its a balance between the two.
