my first paper will be here in 2 days time. i'm getting worried that i may not finish what i want to cover as i'm seriously lagging behind schedule. dun ask me why. probably i'm too complacent since its going to be an open book exam. it may be also that i have revised it 3 weeks ago that i "thought" that i can still remember them now. well... looks like murphy's law is setting in now... really worried... or is it that i'm giving myself too much stress? two voices are in my brain now. one is telling me that its the last exam so most important of all is to pass. grades are secondary. on the other hand, another voice is chanting that its the last semester, so i must really get good grades or else my good honours will be in vain. haizzz.... headache ahh!!

ok... i know what i need. i need to re-orientate myself. i'm heading in the wrong direction. i need to stay focused. i need to know what are my goals. yah... goal setting theory states that my goals have to be difficult but attainable. i must also be committed. i must tell myself that i have the self-efficacy.

ok... focus.... focus.... *chanting* -_________-""
