When we hit ground floor, the fact that andrew's exam venue
will be at level 4 sank in. I panicked. "Galaxy room or level 4 ?"
Immediately, my instincts made me call Grace, not bothering
whether is she asleep at such wee hours. To my very horror,
my dear Grace was deep asleep. I was desperate.
Several choices of helpline popped into my small, pea, exploding brain.
Number 1: Cheng en. He was helpful but his internet was not.
Still grateful tho.
Number 2: Sherwin. The call started with “ huh”.
Number 3: Weisheng. There was not even an inch of sound
from the other side of the line.
D-E-A-D.
Number 4: My beloved DONY LUKMAN! My hero! He got
me my details within minutes. I should have called him
from the very first moment. But thought he might be sleeping
since his having a paper later.
“Galazy Room it is”
I thought my nightmare will end there.
At 8.35am, I reached the racecourse. I am supposed to be at
THE GALAXY ROOM, level 3 by 8.45am. Again, jumpy cause
I had not a single clue where the hell galaxy room suppose to be at.
Here comes another “savior”. I was pointed up that weird looking building.
Up the escalators I went. I was counting the levels as
I approached the beginning of each escalator. “One”, “Two”, and finally “Three”.
Level three I am. I looked around me and guess what.
I found myself standing on a small square area, the connection point
between level two to four. I was horror-struck.
My first few thoughts:
“ I am going to skin Reuben alive at 12pm ”.
“ I am lost, seconds before my paper starts “.
Fortunately, I saw Andrew when I was near a nervous-breakdown.
He said, “Go ask for help from those examiners at level 4.”
I was brought back to reality, on what I should actually do.
The nice lady, told me to stay. Since all the papers are
going the same direction regardless of exam venues.
Fantastically, I was sat all alone in the entire column.
The outcast.
Nevertheless, I was grateful.
Now, wonder how i did for accounting?
I screwed it.
Never will i ever wish to see another journal entry, FOREVER!
Counting down: 8 days.
