Hello everybody,
I hope you're having a great day! As I mentioned in my previous post, I had an important exam yesterday. It went well and it feels like a huge burden was lifted off my shoulders. Before an exam, I feel exams are the worst things to happen to students and life would be much better without them. But actually, the joy you feel after finishing an exam is much more than when you don't have an exam. Any form of relaxation or enjoyment that you indulge in after an exam feels justified. Today, I woke up at about 9:30 am, switched on the TV and sat in front of it till about 4 pm! ( I did shower and have breakfast and lunch in between.) If I had done the same thing on any other random day, I would have felt really guilty. But since I had been working really hard for quite some time, I felt completely relaxed and happy wasting an entire day.
I think this is the reason we need goals and desires in life. We all love the sense of accomplishment that we feel after working towards a goal and achieving it. Living life as it comes is like the joy you feel when you have no exams. It is simple, uncomplicated and happy.
I think it is just a matter of choice. Both the options seem valid ways of living a happy contented life.
Woah! That turned philosophical very soon! I had a really nice day and wanted to do a post on how awesome it feels after an exam. What do you prefer? The day after an exam or a day when you don't have an exam approaching? Do let me know in the comments!
Until next time.
Bye! :D
P.S. I still haven't finished my exams. The next one is still about 5 days away so took a day off.

I agree that It feels great the day after passing an exam but I also like the sense of relief when there are no more exams for the semester. I don't like it when I get relaxed after an exam and then another exam sneaks up on me. Good luck on the rest of your exams, I'm sure you'll do fine. :)
ReplyDeleteThats true too! Thank you so much for the comment! :D And thanks for the good wishes! :D
ReplyDeleteI guess there is one positive with exams as I can relate to that feeling of accomplishment the day after :) life would be boring without goals, by working towards something it adds excitement and the journey to achieving it is always memorable
ReplyDeleteThats true! It would be boring without exams! :/
DeleteThanks a lot for the comment! :D
