Question 1: Who wrote under the pen name Susan Coolidge?

Others: Yeah that's easy Sarah Chauncey Woolsey.

Me: Easy peasy lemon squeezy! Sarah Chauncey Woolsey. *Does a weird victory dance in her head for 2mins*

...
Question 25(last question): What did the Civil Code of 1804 state?
(OR)
How did the views of Phan Boi Chau and Phan Chu Trinh differ? How were they common?
Others: The Civil code question is from the omitted lesson. I'll choose the Vietnam one. *Writes the answer correctly*

Me: Well Napoleonic code is out of syllabus but I did read that lesson briefly and the teacher also said that it's not wrong to attend that question, so why not? Besides I write the answer to the Phan Boi Chau and Phan Chu Trinh question in almost all the tests it's time to try something new.
*Writes* The Civil Code of 1804, better known as the Napoleonic Code of 1804, did away with...
Holy moly I forgot! Ok calm down, don't panic. Ok very good, now take deep breaths and exhale... good now exhale again. Oh wait I forgot to inhale! Drink some water and rack your brains, you didn't forget it's somewhere in there.

Inside my brain:
(This is my mind voices' journey, just picture a mini-me inside a musty library)
"Alright now what has to be done has to be done. There. Is. No. Other. Go." *Steps into the bottomless pit of knowledge, but some how reaches the bottom after a 5 minute long freefall*
"Alright let's see Napoleonic Code, Napoleonic Code which lesson? Ah right Nationalism in Europe. History."

"Ok brain work with me here." Come on where are you Civil Code? *something falls on her head*
"Ouch what in the world was that?" *turns the piece of information around*
"Nazism? But that was last year!" *Another piece of information falls down on the same place*
"Arrgh! Don't throw things at my head! It. Frickin. Hurts. United Nations!? That was 4th or 5th grade."

In the classroom:
Invigilator: Students you have 30 minutes left.

Me: *Grumbling* You could've simply said that there's half an hour left but noooooo you just had to say 30 minutes didn't you? You love to live off of students' stress don't you?

Back inside my head:

"Ouch!"
"Guerrilla mode of warfare. 5th grade."

"Ouch!"
"Pastoralists in the modern world. Last year.

"Ouch."
"Socialism in Europe. Last year."

"Ouch."
"Russian revolution. Last year."

15 minutes and a lot of throwing information at head later...

Me (from under a pile of blocks of information) : Come on dude where in the world are you
