Two figures sat at the table, each buried under a stack of paper. Papers and stationeries scattered all over the table and their expression weren’t very bright. One was rubbing her eyes; the other was trying to figure out a maths question.
The two had been at it for hours and the first figure was at her breaking point. Laying her head on the table, she looked at her friend who was still busy punching numbers into the calculator. Sighing, she brought her head up and gently slapped her cheeks and went back to work.
They took breaks quite frequently, it could be mistaken that they were there chit chatting instead of doing their work for their test the next day. The two fought their sleepiness by telling silly stories and laughing at their own mistakes while they were checking answers.
‘So a is more than 0, so this is a minimum point question.’ One said seriously as she started to analyze the equation.
‘Silly, it’s already stated in the question to find minimum point d, of course it’s a minimum point.’ The other pointed at part a of the question.
‘ya hor.’ Both burst into laughter soon after.
***
‘Which sem’s paper was that?’ one was at the computer, searching for the exam paper which last page her friend forgot to print.
‘May 2009’
‘There isn’t any for May 2009.’
‘Oh, sorry. Its 2010.’
‘Ok..there isn’t any also. Are you sure you found the paper here?’
‘Yea, all the papers are there. Don’t rely of F3, find it manually.’
The latter sighed and nodded as she started to scroll down the page.
‘It’s not here. Are you sure it’s May 2010?’
‘Yea…’
After checking the cover of the exam paper, she burst laughing.
‘April exam 2010 la!!!’ She let out a frustrating puff as she proceeded to click on the link.
Her friend looked at her quizzically before checking the top of the cover page.
ARPIL EXAMINATION
DATE: XTH MAY 2010.
‘HAHAHAHA!!!! So sorry, I thought it was May!’ they were practically throwing their heads backwards and laughing loudly.
Guess studying with a friend isn’t so bad =]
