Not Even Enough Time to Panic!

Some people believe that studying for tests is useless, while others think that studying is what helps them to pass school. I would have to say that I'm the type of person that feels the need to study. If I don't, I feel as if I'm not prepared, almost like I'm missing something. However, there is not always time to study. Well, that day came for me about two weeks ago. All week, I had been planning to leave all of Thursday night open so that I could study for my Geometry test that was the following day. Now, I know what you're thinking: why do I need an entire night just to study for a math test? Actually, I probably should have saved MORE time because the tests, in my opinion, are tough. However, I only saved on night.

Thursday rolled around, and a mandatory Theatre rehearsal came up, so that wasted three hours of my night. By the time I arrived home, it was six o' clock, and I still had to finish other homework! So I immediately took a shower, ate dinner, and started working on the homework that was due tomorrow. The previous night, I stayed up late finishing other homeowork, and I guess I was so exhausted from that that I just completely crashed on Thursday night. When I woke up in the morning, I felt well-rested, but it hit me that I had not yet studied. It seemed that I didn't even have enough time to panic.

When I got to school, the day seemed to drag by. When it finally came time to take the test, I froze up. I could not seem to remember anything how I had hoped I would. All of the numbers of the page seemed to make a haze in my eyes, and soon enough, the whole page became a blur. I wracked my brain hoping for any sort of hints that would help me, and suddenly, it all came back to me. It was a miracle! I almost stood up and screamed to congratulate myself, but I remembered that I was still in the classroom. As a result of my memory, I completed the whole test, and even got an "A" on it. That day, I learned that sometimes the worst situations can turn into the best. Sometimes you just have to let your situations work their own way out, and it may be you who benefits in the end.
