*coming up for a breath of air*

Okay. I've just finished practicing writing out a thousand words in about an hour for my exam tomorrow (two questions, two hours, and hour each for both). In all likelihood, probably, I'm NOT screwed as OMG I'M GOING TO FAIL. I am however, screwed in the sense that I am slightly out of practice in spouting out what I think coherently under time pressure (I have an hour to say what I think? What?). Because I'm so used to the nice, crystal polish that comes with having a week or two to write something. Of course what I scribble out under an hour is going to be...well, coherently structured. But definitely raw.

Dammit, I know they're not expecting a nice essay shine to the exam. It's still driving me mad.
