The way I spend the first few days after examination
The way I spend the first few days after examination

It has always been my habit, during exam periods, to stick
my head into my text for half an hour and concentrate hard
on my studies. For fifteen minutes after this, I will relax my
mind and then resume work for another half an hour. This
routine will continue until the day my exams are over.

During my fifteen-minute breaks, I usually have a cup of
cool beverage and listen to some songs. Sometimes I
munch some biscuits. On the days when I feel extra
helpful, I utilize the time to help my mother with household
chores.

One day, I decided to spend my fifteen minutes planning
how I would spend the first few days after the
examinations are over. I have planned specific days for
myself, my family and then my friends. Here is how I will
spend my time.

During the first day, after the examinations, I will relax in
my room. I will virtually lock myself in with some biscuits
and snacks and a few canned drinks. I will watch some of
the good movies my brother had video taped for me,
which I had been unable to watch when they were
telecast. How I miss movies!

The next day, I will spend cleaning my room. I will clear all
the notes that have infested my table and put them all
away, together with my textbooks into the last drawer of


my study table so that I will not be further burdened by
their sight. During the afternoon, I will bring my nephews
shopping. Since I have not been eating out nor have I
been shopping during the few months of torture, I can
afford to spend my savings on my little darlings.

The third day I will spend with my family. My father has
promised to bring us across the causeway to visit some
relatives. I always enjoy myself at the village. My relatives
live a life of simplicity. Their innocence and warmth always
touches me. I long to see them again. I will persuade my
father to allow us to spend the night at the village, which is
the birthplace of my brother and I. We will then come back
to Singapore the next morning.

The fourth day, after a short rest, I will spend the day
swimming with my friends at the East Coast Parkway. We
will bring some picnic lunch packets and, of course, our
tents. We will laze around at the beach chatting and eating
snacks.
