It Is NOT a Winter Wonderland
Assalaamu Alaikum all my exam-writers,
Lucky bums who don't have to write any haha Anyhooz, I'm relaxed right now, because I just finished my second last exam of the semester. Alhamdulillah, wasn't so bad. But just studying for that exam was not a joyous event. Due to an essay that had to be submitted today, I lost valuable study time. Just had a day to study ... I know ... a day! But I did it, granted didn't sleep at all during the night but I did it. Okay fine, I slept for 20 mins but it just was not enough. I had my whole bus schedule times planned out for the morning so that I would arrive at York a half an hour earlier than my exam. What ends up happening is ... we have a little snow storm. Somebody please tell me why did it have to snow on the day of my exam?! I really wanted to give winter a chance this year, I really did. But from today's experience, I'm sorry, it's just not happening. Instead, winter reminded me why I dislike it so very much. We don't mesh well together, with all the brrring and all. Since my brother was grouchy this morning, I had to shovel the snow off the car ... it really gave my arms a workout ... *ouchies* But I quickly ran into the house because our neighbor let his hyper dog out and it was about to chase me .... stop chasing me!! I was one grouchy lady this morning, was not pretty.
Finally, we got rolling. Obviously the roads were horrible so there was a lot of build-up on the road. My exam was scheduled for 9am and I was still trying to get myself to the GO Station at 8:10am. By the time I reached the station, it was 8:30am and the bus came in at around 8:40am. Now, it usually takes 20 minutes to get to my university .... but since it was a snow day (yay snow! *cough*) I was delayed another half an hour. And not only that, I had to STAND on the bus! I hate standing on the bus! It's hard to study that way ... I almost knocked the guy down infront of me, it could have been a dominoes affect.
Whatever ... I was 20 minutes late for my exam but I was okay with it because it's a 3 hr exam and I knew I'd finish with it earlier ... which I did :D
I have yet to see an exam day where I'm actually happy .... still waiting .... almost a graduate but I shall still wait to see that day ... insha'Allah .... so many dot dot dots ....
P.S. = boooooo winter!

Spongebob: What is this stuff? (when he sees snow)
Patrick: It's a vast, swirling wonderland of sparkling white pleasure. Let it fill your senses with cascading, fluffy pillows of excitement and comfort as you've never felt before. (this brings a tear to Sponge's eye)
Spongebob: Wow Pat, that was beautiful.
Patrick: What? I was just reading this candy bar wrapper, see? (he hands Sponge the wrapper. Sponge gasps)
I also had an exam on Friday and also had to go through the commuting hell to get there in time. I drove downtown from Mississauga... it wasn't fun but I made it on time.
Snowdays are great when you don't have exams or work to attend...
Remember that first snow storm we had a few weeks back?
I had a 1 hour exam that morning, and arrived half an hour late. Maybe that'd make you feel better about your predicament. :)
(btw.. I go to York too. The exam was 1 hour because it was for a language course)
I showed up 30 minute late for a one hour exam on International Business back in November... why did I show up late? There was an oilspill on the Gardiner Expressway and thus, they closed the highway! Daah... oh well, I finished the exam in 17 minutes.
