My Near Death Experience
Saturday, August 12, 2006
It's hard to really put down my feelings into words. As I sit here typing this entry, feeling the strain of my eye muscles as I stare into the screen and my tired body taking the weight of the ground, emotions gush over me like a sudden wave onto the shore. That's the reason why I told myself I need to put this down before my poor memory proves its ability.
Anyhoos, the exam fever has finally subsided. The last I checked, I actually got through it and came out of it alive. Alike many near death experiences, I've realise how I've taken for granted the many blessings in my life. This gruelling round of exams was my near death experience. Don't think it to be dramatic, because it really isn't. Suicidal? Surely not. But I think you get the picture.
It's quite ironic how I managed to forge bonds and strengthen current ones throughout this stressful period. But I did, God knows how, but I think He knew that I needed it during this time. That's why I need to say a BIG HUMONGOUS thank you to the following people.
Ben
Firstly, thank you for waking me up every morning for my exams. Without you, I wouldn't have been able to reach the exam hall in time. Thank you also for bringing me snacks to keep me awake. I really needed those to help me study. Lastly, thank you for calling up to check up on how I've been handling the stress. You've been that someone I could lean on during this period. :)
Sheryl
My dearest and bestest friend. I don't know why we got reaquainted during this time. I've been so busy with so many other things that I forgot to check up on how you were doing. Thank you for remembering me and supporting me all this way. You helped take the stress away with your lame jokes and stupid antics. I love you to bits. :)
Aaron
You. Thank you for giving me reasons to smile during my exams. I'm in love with High School Musical's soundtracks. It has soothed me and diverted my attention away when I really needed the break. :)
Jacqueline
Oh my dearest yucks. What would I do without you? I especially looked forward to talking to you online during my breaks. Listening to you crap about the dumbest things and sending out the woo-woos really took some pounds off the load of all that studying. Thank you for letting me rant and go Sss the whole freaking time. Thank you for just being you. :)
God
Even though we haven't been speaking much to each other lately, you still had my back. In fact, you not only had my back but carried me throughout. You sent these 3 people. You made everything fall into place so nicely. You made sure I didn't miss my last exam. I can't deny that at the end of the day, all I really need is You.
