That feeling of nervousness and relief w.r.t exams!!

I am glad I could pull it off today. I had thought it would be a disastrous run! Thankfully, it wasn't a complete wipe-off as I had envisaged. I just got lucky I suppose. PHEW!! What a struggle I had to put up to muster all my strength to focus for the mid semester exam! The course "Human Development: A Psychological Perspective" is very unlike any other course I have had to go through. Right after the first lecture, I had made up my mind to care two hoots about scoring and seriously give it a shot. Very well knowing that I might not be good at 'reproducing' theoretical stuff, I chose it for the sheer moments of brilliance the instructor Prof. Meenakshi Gupta was able to give us a glimpse of. It's like unravelling the mysteries of your hitherto inexplicable experiences of life. By God! What a course!! For the first time, I seem to be enjoying a course with so much of profound excitement. There's this casualness about the course which is uncharacteristic of an engineering course. There's this comfy-zone one can wander away into, listening to the intricacies of human behaviour explained with such articulate precision. How I wish I were so attracted to all the electrical engineering courses!!!!! Just yesterday, at around this time, I was such a nervous wreck imagining all horrors of my inefficiency in the exam, struggling at the same time to cram in as much as I could for the exam. And now here I am, gleefully recounting my stint with the immense relief the aftermath has brought about in me...... Just wondering how I would have felt had I been able to do exceptionally well, as I could actually have if only I were a little more systematic in my preparation....
