seems like there is a no. of ppl feeling the pressure of not doing well in the exams. well, it would be an understatement if i said i did not feel such a pressure. whenever exams r round the corner, i like to play a mental game wif myself. it's rather hard to explain but the whole gist of it is to convince urself tt there's nothing impossible to achieve. if u can conquer this, there isnt anything else u cannot corner. though exam is just one small thing relative to the many bigger things we will encounter in our lives, it is this building of the foundation tt will let u soar high into the sky.
the following extract was posted in my blog previously, but i think i shall post it agian to serve as a reminder to everyone to put the cup down everyday.
Stress Management

A lecturer, when explaining stress management to an
audience, raised a glass of water and asked, "how
heavy is this glass of water? "
Answers called out ranged from 20g to 500g. The
lecturer replied, "The absolute weight doesn't
matter. It depends on how long you try to hold it. "

"If I hold it for a minute, that's not a problem. If I
hold it for an hour, I'll have an ache in my right
arm. If I hold it for a day, you'll have to call an
ambulance. "In each case, it's the same weight, but
the longer I hold it, the heavier it becomes. "

He continued, "And that's the way it is with stress
management. If we carry our burdens all the time,
sooner or later, as the burden becomes increasingly
heavy, we won't be able to carry on. "

"As with the glass of water, you have to put it down
for a while and rest before holding it again. When
we're refreshed, we can carry on with the burden. "

"So, before you return home tonight, put the burden of
work down. Don't carry it home. You can pick it up
tomorrow. Whatever burdens you're carrying now, let
them down for a moment if you can. " "Relax; pick them
up later after you've rested.

Life is short. Enjoy it!

the following 3 sentences r wat i always tell myself whenever i feel overwhelmed by things, hope it can inspire/motivate u guys too
"When the going gets tough, the tough gets going. i m tough, so just bring it on!"
"If i get tackled down, i swear tt i bounce back harder"
"The height of one's success is determined by how deep rock bottom one hits. Do not treat failures as a dead end. There is light at the end of the tunnel."

If u think some sounds familiar, coz it's on my friendster profile as well! lolx!

gambatte!!!
