Mama kat's writing prompt (you should check it out if you never have..her badge is up top) that I chose this week was:
#2. A case of the nerves. When was the last time I had them and how did I get through it?
I don't have a lot of free time to write a post, so I guess it's a good thing I have this prompt to pick because I can write about it in just a few lines.
My last case of The Nerves was my 1st ever college Math final that I had last semester. I had myself completely worked up before I went in. About half-way through the test I threw up in a trash can in the front of the room. Of course, I couldn't leave without having to take another test all over (they were going to give us 2 chances), so I was NOT going to leave even if they did want me to and even if I was MORTIFIED. (Hey....it was the first time I ever threw-up in front of anyone when I wasn't too wasted to care) I was not about to go through another night of that torture.
I stayed and scored a 95/100, but I probably can't say that for all of the people who were also taking their test and had to endure it. I'm sure watching and hearing it was worse than the actual act. As a matter of fact, my nerves settled down immediately after.
