Baptism of Fire

It was the term used by my Legal Research professor the other week referring to the trinal exams that is supposed to start tonight.  My scheduled exam for tonight is on Constitutional Law.  However, due to some confusion with the schedule, we ended up postponing my first subject until next week. 

Earlier, I thought I was late because I stayed a little while in the office listening to President Aquino as he delivered his first State of the Nation Address.  After he finished delivering his speech, I hurriedly went to the university.  When I got there, I found out that there were just a few of us inside the room.  So, I took the liberty to go over my notes for the last time hoping to get a little more information that will come out in the exam.  I don’t know how minutes had passed before I heard the bell rung signaling the beginning of the examination.  I nervously waited on my seat waiting for my professor like I am waiting for the end to come.     The door opened and revealed my professor in Criminal Law!  I feel like my doom just came.  I was thinking, was I wrong to think that my schedule for today is Constitutional Law?  Oh no, how am I going to answer the questions when I have not reviewed everything yet in my Criminal Law?  My stomach tightened and I felt hungry all of a sudden I wanted to eat 5 plates of rice.  I was only relieved when I found out about the confusion. My professor in Criminal Law got confused with the schedule.  She thought our schedule is today instead of Wednesday.  Maybe the same thing happened to my other professor.  Whatever it is, the important thing is we do not have a scheduled exam today as it was postponed next week.  

So my classmate and I went home to begin reviewing for our next subject.  Thanks God, I still have ample of time to do my requirement in Legal Research.
