i'd spent roughly 20 hours studying for my math midterm.
I was a bit nervous, sitting at my desk in class but felt pretty prepared. i mean, how hard can limits get right? it's only cal I. i hate how people throw bits of info around right before class though. it confuses me because the ones that do it are mostly the confused people. urg. wrong info, right info.... so messy. haha so yeah i'm a bit stressed out, a bit scared, math is not at all my best subject.
everyone gets to class. we're all quiet, a bit apprehensive (or a lot) seated in our orderly rows.
our teacher hands out the exam booklet and then the exam paper, we pass them down our nice orderly rows.
"I'm sure you've all studied really hard for this exam. It's not hard and you're all very prepared for it. It's not very long and you have until 12:30."
He turns around.
Pulls out a white plastic metro bag.
Unties it and pulls out ... a plastic fished nailed to a wooden plaque.
"Now let's have Billy say pronounce the benediction."
He pushes a red button.
The fish starts to sing.
THE way to start a math exam.
