When it's never that serious

I haven’t read for a CAT this year as much as I read for the one we had yesterday. I stayed up late, survived on two measly hours of sleep and two espressos. I read. I read my ass off. But I wasn’t just reading, I was internalising, comprehending, answering all sorts of questions. I was prepared. Then the CAT came...

Number 1: haha. These guys are funny.
Number 2: I suffered a near heart attack.
Number 3: I read this. Jubilation! Then...Oh my gosh, I remember nothing!
Number 4: Haiya! We learnt this?
Number 5: I read this. I read it well. So at least I’m assured about 10 marks out of a hundred.
I had really been prepared for that CAT. But no amount of preparation could brace me against the assault I suffered. And thus the story of how I bent over for a CAT, and it did me good.
As if things could not get any worse, I later found out that it would only constitute about 1% of my total mark. I felt used. I’d lost sleep and endured so much stress just for one lousy percent?! And thus the moral of the story: IT’S NEVER THAT SERIOUS!!!!!!
When you’ve had a day like mine, you need a song to pump up energy. A song that reminds
you that it’s never that serious. ‘cause you might not see tomorrow.
