For example, you go to your exams believing you're well-prepared, heck you've been burning the midnight oil for weeks now. Then you answer all the questions with flourish feeling that you'll ace it "man, the questions were easy". But when you get your results, you're at the bottom rung of the class ranking. Again!
That's when you start thinking: "Bummer. Maybe i didn't study hard enough." And you proceed to cut back on sleeping, and resting and eating. Not that you weren't cutting back before. You're thinking, "if i push myself just a little harder, maybe lady luck will notice me." Thus, the sick cycle of over-studying and over-thinking continues, and you spiral deeper into a dark oblivion~
If this sounds oddly familiar to you, don't worry cos it hits the best of us (me included). Just this morning, due to my crazy overthinking, i messed up a simple and straighforward question on my exam (tahniah, Izyan!!). I'm not gonna elaborate on it because all the technical jargons will only bore you.
Besides, what's done is done. No point dwelling on something i have no power to change. Right now, I think i'll rest my tired brain for a bit. But only for a bit. Because believe it or not, i still haven't learned my lesson.
Oh, the joys of studying medicine~
