title:
The monster has only five days left to act. It crawls and worms around our hearts, trapping us all in its web of fear and helplessness. No one could do anything, everyone was trapped. Some had tried to escape, yet, they came back defeated and desolate. The C6s they hol in their hands were testament to the might and power that the monster wields to terrorise and control us all. Indeed, exams are a frightening thing.
5 more days till the end of exams.
Yet, the monster decides to manifest itself even further by splitting itself into sub-species. These sub-species were both a gift and a curse - some enjoyed their less demeaning and overbearing composure, while others cowered in fear at the sight of these sub-species. They take on different masks at different times. Sometimes, they don't even appear to the chosen ones. These chosen ones have shown complete mastery over the sub-species, yet, many of us, who had once dominion over these sub-species, could not understand - wy are we not exempted from the subject?
5 more subjects yet to be tested.
Through it all, we stand triumphant at the fact that the monster's stronghold lasts for only 5 more days. Once the period of 5 days pass slowly, quietly, we realise that we are yet faced with anoher monstrocity. They strike even more fear into our hearts, for they are not just like the monster, they have power over our future. They can shape and mold it any way they feel like, for we are prey, and they, predators. Fortunately, it seems as though they have been restrained by another higher force, the marking scheme. Any who violates this shall be duly punished, and no one was prepared to pay the consequences.
6 more days till paper check arrives.
No one knows how these monsters disappear. They fade into the darkness, and we experience peace yet again. Despite the fear, the agony, and the suspicion, no one could tell why they have the longing for the monsters to appear again. No one likes the monsters, that's a fact. But still, why do we yearn for them, yet fear them so much?
1 more year till exams arrive again.
The End.
