A "great" exam start

Dog Food · June 17, 2009, 04:11:00 PM

Today was the first day of our final exams. I went to bed early, around 10 PM, so that I could wake up at 5:45 AM and be awake, alert, and have time for a good breakfast. I've been healthy all year and haven't missed a day of school. But of course, last night/this morning (around 3 AM), severe lower abdominal pains woke me up. It felt like the inside of my stomach was being stabbed. It kept me wide awake and killed. I took some Advil and just laid in bed until tiredness won over the pain and I drifted off to sleep around 5 AM. My alarm woke me up soon after, but I ended up not getting up until nearly 7 AM. I rushed to get ready, had one egg (over easy) for breakfast because the pain in my stomach seemed to be keeping me from having a real appetite.

Thankfully the pain was more mild when I woke up. I was able to get through my first exam with very few bursts of pain to disrupt my thinking. But still, why today? It hurts more now, but I was able to fall asleep when I got home from school for a few hours. Hopefully I can fall asleep again tonight if I take some Tylenol PM and by the morning maybe the pain will be gone. But I have no idea what caused it, or why I had to get sick (literally) right before my exams started. I'm not going to stay home because then I'd have to set up a new appointment to get my exams done after school is over. That'd suck for both me and the teacher.

Sucks, doesn't it? I know a lot of you are finished with your exams, but how'd they go? Anything unusual happen? And for the others starting theirs as well, good luck and I hope you don't have the same misfortune I'm having.

My exams went pretty good.
But that really sucks, sick on your exam day. D:

That sucks man, I stayed up late for one of my final's days.

I didn't really study for them <_< But I actually think I did pretty good. Probably B's or higher on them. I'm wondering what I got ;-; I finished each of my finals after practically everyone else.

For some reason, my report card says that I didn't take my Advanced Algebra final when I did, and I'm missing a credit. =| I missed it the first time because I came in at the wrong time, but the teacher still let me take it a couple of days later... It'll be a cold day in hell when I take that class again, even if it is one semester.

My last test is on Friday. Sitting in those chairs for 2 hours makes you ass hurt.

I took all of my finals at the beginning of the moth. I don't really care about what grdes I got.

I missed an exam because I was so absorbed in finishing my final project for programming, and I forgot all about it. ;_____;

Mine are coming this Monday - Friday. They won't be pleasant, but hopefully I'm of sound body and mind.

I don't study either, and I think I did good. But my hardest test has yet to come... I get to have my two hardest and longest exams on the last day of school.

You're going to have to take it again!? Why don't you take it up with the office, or your teacher? Someone should get that fixed, because re-taking a course for a false reason would suck.

Like I said, it'll be a cold day in hell before I take it again. Nobody said that I couldn't make it up the day I have a free period. We're going call the school and make them fix it. It's only been two weeks since school let out, and I got my report card yesterday, so they better not give me any bull.

The only bad part of my exams so far has been that my science teacher refused to let us go after we were done so i had to sit there for like over an hour with a finished test.
