All's Well...

that ends well. Provided you come out at least a little wiser, it not unscathed. :D

Yes. That is me beaming. My performance in the exam yesterday was a total 180 from where I feared I would be. It was so good to be done with that, and better yet to have done good. I feel liberated, a huge block of stone slid off of my brain, and I now have total control of my thoughts again.

Seriously. You have no idea how terrified I was. Or maybe you do.

Thank you for your support and kind words. You played a sweet role in my happiness :)

I still have another week of exams and submissions, but this time I am not going crazy. These I can handle.

I have been thinking this morning, why I let that exam get under my nerves. I am yet to come with one conclusive answer. It seems more like a compound attack of different things that I neglected to notice. I will never let that happen to me again.

Everybody was super thrilled to be done with the exam yesterday. Apparently, I wasn't alone in my misery. It wasn't a tough subject, it was just vast and unpredictable. In spite of my having previous experience in the subject, it amazed me how much more there was to know.

Hope you had a good start of the week too! Its a lovely day here, and I am basking in the sunshine and enjoying the company of buzzing bees and clear blue skies.  And lots and lots of pollen, seed and you-name-it floating around. Even without allergies, they are annoying. But yet, truly humbling.

Unfortunately, the seeds I planted did not survive those rapidly changing temperatures we had a little while ago. They all sprouted leaves and were doing well till then... I might also have been a wee bit lax in my care.. I now have barely 4 of them left. Very sad. I will have to buy seedlings this year. I like waking up to a balcony of beautiful colors.

Have you started gardening? My day lilies are growing strong and I can't wait for the flowers!
