Your guts are your glory
(HAAAY. . .KUNG GUSTO KONG MAKA PASA MAN LANG SANA SA EXAM KO!)

So, before you put your head down to that nerve-wrecking Chem16 long exam; or before you take your Math 5 million nth time midterm test. . . comb your hair first, put a good amount of powder on your face, and let your thoughts travel to the following WHAT-TO-DO in test-taking. This may have an effect to your system. . . and maybe, just maybe (without any assurance at all) you’d then find yourself saying “dammit! La na bang mas hihirap pa doon?!� or “that wasn’t even a test enough!� after that supposed to be it-could-have-killed-you exam. Hehehe;p

1. Istep wan.In english, first step. Relax! Believe in yourself! You have the right to do better this time and you can! (simple and precise enough, right?)

2. Analyze ok! Don’t jump into answers. Teachers love to construct, I mean as in construct (they do it with blood and sweat) test questions with a very high level of trickiness inorder to what else...of course, trick the students! Sa tagalog, hanapin ang kiliti ng exam! Pero,remember this: (indeed a fact shittier than shit!) may mga exam na wala talaga kiliti!!

3. Avoid looking at other test-takers! This would only cause you drop-dead depression and severe nervousness (when unlike you, they look normal in situations when they aren’t supposed to).

4. Don’t exaggerate things! Some questions are better that what you expect! Yeah right, that thought that have caused you several sleepless nights could be like “easy� too or “easier� than what you have been expecting.

5. Feel good! Puff some smoke! (joke laang!=) or sing “noong bata pa ako, tinuruan ako ng lolo ng tango…�! -totoy bibbo ito.. (hehe:)

6. Comfort.. Comfort! Dress comfortably! So as not to be bothered if others might be staring on that cleavage or if your panty’s appearing at your back or that you can’t breath ‘coz your pants are too tight. Or, your second option(could work better for you); do the other way around, I mean an overlysexy get-up and let others be distracted by your presence. (naughty you;0)

7. Concentrate! (take note of the exclamation very much;p) Hard! (as in parang BATO!!) and do keep it intact (kht SOBRANG pogi pa ng seatmate mo;)

8. Forget ASAP/I-want-2b-d-first-to-pass (para astig ako) submissions...you still could come into some real answers if you’ll just wait. Wait until something good happens.. ‘coz there always could be.

9. PRAY! This is your first and last resort! Everything can happen with God by your side. You have proven this “fact� right? Remember that everything could be possible if you would just pray! Walang imposible kay God!!! Rivermaya! (pray and believe;)

These are but 9 simple steps into trying to get a decent exam grade. But of course, you have to help yourself too. Exert some real effort to not sleep! Mag-aral ka sana. :)

Now, think about your failures in the past and be aware of how they created you as a better version of your self. Because of those, now you are tougher. And now you can do better. You can get what you want. Satisfy yourself.. :p

…and don’t take regrets, only lessons learned!
