jitters



Every minute counts. Yep yep.. i got the jitters alright.. Last night I pulled out my pen and pad and started copying the sentences of my reviewer. Well.. the goal is to help me improve my penmanship. After writing in a while I asked the opinion of my sister whether I should write in print or use caligraphy. She said that I should write in a "round" way... I go.."eyngs? What the hell is ROUND"? I told her that, that's how i write -- and I don't care if she likes it or not as long as it is pleasant to the eyes and readable. She goes -" Masyadong payat ang sulat mo.. Ampangettt!!". I said " Hindi ah! naiintindihan ko naman ah!" But of course since it's my handwriting-- it is given that I should understand it. Anyway, I wrote using a couple of strokes more-- and I realized that indeed, my penmanship sucks. DARN!

When I met with my friends last friday, They asked me how am I feeling now that the BAR exams are just a couple of days away... I said that I just want to get over it. They said that i should be relaxed.. I should not let pressure take hold of me. But how can that be? When the BAR EXAMS exudes pressure and stress. Yep, every minute of my life-- I just want to scrape it out. Get rid of it. At the moment -- Im really frightened. Scared of the unknown but excited as well. I've waited for so long to become a barrister. And here I am only a few steps away from a childhood dream.

Keep calm, strong faith, believe in yourself, in miracles and in the powers of prayers.
I'm afraid.
help.
