Deadline Rush

I have an exam in just two days, and the reality hit me hard today that I haven't even opened my books for over a month. As the days went by, I was simply walking around, wasting time, and now the deadline is fast approaching. I haven't done any proper studying, and I could feel the pressure building up as the exam gets closer.

In the early hours of today, I realized I needed to change something fast. I grabbed my books, packed them into my bag, and headed straight to school. I decided I wouldn't come back home until the next day, committing myself to stay on campus and focus. My plan is to study as much as I can today and leave the last day for revision.

This last-minute study method is risky, and I know it can be very costly. It’s not ideal, and it’s not something I’m proud of. But it has somehow become my pattern over time. The pressure always seems to push me into this cycle of cramming right before the exam, even though I know it's not the best approach.

I’m hoping that with this intense focus over the next couple of days, I can still cover enough material to feel prepared. It's a tough situation, but I have no other choice now but to push through and make the best of it. Let’s hope I can pull it off before the big day arrives.
