Although I am nonewhere near to Nirvana I decided to brew this one. For those who want to know results from my mathematics exam from Friday — I failed. I failed and I want to see my results because I just don’t believe it! I know I did not solved all the problems, but that amount of points is just… weird.
I don’t want to hear “I am sorry Martin, you did your best…” and similar. I did not. I was, ehm, lazy! This is not something I could learn in few days, moreover some days were really days I did nothing! I am always excusing myself this or that disturbed me, or I don’t have mood for that or … excuses, excuses, excuses!
Tea itself is pretty nice. Blend is made from nice-looking teas, jasmine is nice and present. Spearmint is adding little bit of cooling notes, which is nice in today hot day (in 10 am it reaches up to 25 °C, but it is sultry weather and I had problems to take groceries back home which was 400 metres away. During next week I have three another exams, in Tuesday — road transport technology and managment, Wednesday — International transport, Thursday — Theory of Graphs.
Tea itself… back to tasting note
is actually pretty nice. Jasmine and spearmint don’t work perfectly, but tea itself is nice and light, quite refreshing. Maybe it reminds me bit some cookies, but it is as well nicely grassy, though in aroma it is rather hay.
Nice thirst-quenching drink :)
Flavors: Dry Grass, Hay, Jasmine, Spearmint

Some wise words I memorized a long time ago: No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it. Waiting for “later on” can be tough, though! We’re still pulling for you.
I am sorry to hear that you failed but I’ve been in this situation too. In my undergrad I didn’t go to class or do readings and I’d study the night before exams and get through maybe 1/2 (sometimes more and sometimes less of the material). I would feel like shit going into the exam because I knew it was just me being lazy. Often it turned out I retained more than I thought and was able to pass but there were times where I failed and it sucks. Hopefully in this case you can see the results and find out you didn’t but if you did, unfortunately there isn’t much you can do now. Every semester I’d promise myself I’d do better the next semester and it took basically all undergrad for me to listen and I completely tanked my GPA. So, just try not to do that and you’ll be alright…as shitty as you might feel now.
I know you don’t want us to say sorry, but please don’t think of yourself as lazy. I know from reading how many exams you have and how much you’ve studied for them all that that’s not the case. I had bad anxiety at university and it caused me to drop out in my final year. I didn’t study as much as I should have, because I was overwhelmed. Sometimes when you’re overwhelmed studying is too difficult in the moment. It doesn’t make you lazy – it makes you human.
Thank you gmathis for your nice quote. I think it is just so right!
Exactly my problem VariaTEA, somehow I am more and more lazy to do all the stuff I need to. One half… okay there is 50 % chance that I will know. Hm, I guess it doensn’t work that way. But I am struggling with this as well. And… yeah, promises that next semester would be different — I am always saying that to myself but nope, I never did better. Rather worse.
Well, Nattie — I certainly could do more! That’s it. But yeah, I am feeling overwhelmed. But your comment made me almost cry. I don’t know why. Maybe it was because somebody who I don’t know in real life so cares about me? Yes, I am doing lots of exams. I am overwhelmed with them. There is no time to rest. At least one week; but it seems I will “rest” during summer. In a summer-job? Well, it is not that great way to rest :(. I am trying to work harder, especially this week will be so critical as I would like to pass at least two of them. But I have to start studying for tomorrow one at least. I did little yesterday, but still there is plenty to do!
