⎯⎯⎯⎯


DREAD IS all that I feel as I read the text on the screen again. 

It's that time of the year where I wish I was nearing eighty and death was a breath away.

Exams.

I'm most definitely not the only person who dreads them but I'll be damned if I'm not at the top of the list of people who hate them more than they hate waking up in the morning to head to school.

This semester, however, I didn't quite feel as much dread but in its place was something much stronger, loathing maybe. The harshest of the spectrum.

Alright, I might be exaggerating a little bit but they're the main reason I haven't step foot out of my room neither gone to Tippy's for a week.

Seven days of cooping up useless information only to forget everything after I make the test.

Another problem this time around is that I haven't seen Ella for any of the last seven days either. Without counting the days she hadn't come in to work of course.

It really hasn't been too long but somehow it feels as if time's been dragging along and forever's gone by.

I can't wait to get this over with so I can see Ella.
