I can’t avoid it any longer. I can’t keep on putting it off. The exams are knocking on my door. So, whether I want to or not, I have to devour my books with a vengeance. Being an advocate of relaxed reading, I was ready to start reading for exams during swot week. Then I happened to reflect on the work I have to cover before the exams. One of the drawbacks to doing a Humanities course is that you always have a huge amount of reading to do. I realised that I could not cover the necessary material in the space of a week. It’s just too much for me to handle. So I’m pulling out the stops and kicking off my exam preparations. From today, no more movies or soapies. It’s time for serious business. I just remembered I’m on a scholarship which is never renewed if one fails. I wish I had kept reminding myself of that fact throughout the year. I’d probably have worked harder. But since I managed to scrape through last semester, I have a decent short at passing well. And I promise God that if I pass, next year I’ll start reading right from the beginning of the year.
