The Night before An Examination

             It is the night before my final examination. From tomorrow morning my examination will start. As the evening draws to a close and night approaches, my usually strong nerves seem to be melting. Nothing seems to work right. I keel turning the pages of my text book. But that does not help. Immediately after I have turned one page, I seem to forget what is mentioned there.
             I am at a Loss to explain why this is happening. I am getting more and more restless. One moment I am drinking water and at the next I am checking my fountain pen.—if I have filled ink in it. Though I know it very well that I have already refilled three of my fountain pens.
             I keep checking them over and over again. It again proves that my nervous are falling apart.
I am not a bad student and have fared quite well in all my examinations and there is no real reason for me to feel what I am going through. I keep checking tip the suggestions which our teacher bad given us, those which I had made myself and constantly in my own mind I try to answer those questions. Will this question come flow long should I write if that quest ion does come? These are some of the many questions which seem to plague my mind over and over again. Then, I got with myself. I decided, I must stop it. I might as well put away my books and relax by watching television. But I again start to follow my questions, the possible answers keep coming back to my mind. I get more fed up with myself and ultimately before I go to sleep, I feel like a jumping crow. I hope, this experience does not recur in my life on any other occasion.
