There really is nothing as stressful, worrying or as confusing as sitting idle at an exam.
I never really thought I would be forced into these situations before, but I just take it as one of those challenges life throws at you, puts you in places you've never been to, and honestly never thought you would be in...
I mean, these are the thoughts that were crossing my mind at that time:
1) knowing that I'm the only one who has finished so early, leaving out most of it unanswered, and not knowing anything relevant to fill pages at the very least.
2) Wondering why God chose to exclude so much of what you spent all that time studying
3)Not being able to even look around - they might think I'm cheating. It's one thing to sit idle when nobody's watching you, and something completely different when people are watching you after they think they caught you cheating, even if you weren't, even if it's just the invigilator - no - ESPECIALLY if it is the invigilator. They can even come and check what we're writing!
(By the way, I might have at least resorted to copying off my friend's answer sheet if I hadn't forgotten to bring my darned specs!)
4) Recognizing some - or most of the terms mentioned in the question, but not remembering anything related to it to magically weave something that looks like an answer out of it
5)Above all, not being able to get out of the place - not without being subjected to the collective judgment of the onlookers. Not like I would really care if I wasn't spending almost 80% of my day around them.
Hmm...so I have to while away the time somehow, hence - yet another blog post is born!
Woah! Life has a wierd way of changing our opinions on various things. I don't remember idling at an exam - EVER. Even if I wasn't exactly the star student, I have never been in this kind of a situation - that too, not as frequently as I happen to be in now!

frankly written...;)
