Up till around 1 pm today I was actually one chapter in economics ahead of schedule.

Then I went to write the math final and somehow my Tuesday just fell away.

I don’t think I did very well on the final to be honest, but wilst writing it I came over an interesting sensation.

Have you heard of “flow”?

It’s like when you’re so in-the-zone of doing something that you are doing and the motions are moving but you’re not thinking about it.  I think it’s also known as concentration. Just… on a very high level.

I was completly immersed in math.  I screwed up some differentiating steps along the way but it didn’t get me down.  Over the past few months I developed this bad habit of giving up and feeling helpless even during a test but this time I think I overcame it.  Or rather, it didn’t come up?

Somewhere in the last hour I suddenly consciously realized I was in flow and then it broke.  =( But it came back for a little bit at the end.

Anyway, back to studying.

Verdict of my first university final taking experience: Good experience but let’s never do that again. Too bad that’s not happening…

Good luck everyone =)
