If I fail, I wont have a job BEFORE EXAM: THIS IS NOT A DETERMINING FACTOR OF YOUR INTELLIGENCE. YOU HAVE STUDIED, YOU HAVE TRIED, YOU HAVE PUT IN WORK. AND EVEN IF THIS DOESN'T GO THROUGH, EVERYTHING WILL BE FINE. EVERYTHING WILL BE OKAY. BACKUP PLANS ON DECK. DON'T SECOND GUESS YOURSELF. DON'T CHANGE THE ANSWER. WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T CHANGE THE ANSWER. FUTURE STILL AHEAD. TAKE IT AS A LEARNING OPPORTUNITY. AND THAT'S ALL IT IS. AFTER EXAM YOU DID THAT! GOOD JOB. IM IN THERE!! AFTER EXAM OH, YOU PASSED! YOU DID THAT! GOOD JOB. WE ARE. OH, MY GOD! OH, I FUCKING PASSED! OH, I PASSED! I STILL HAVE A JOB! OH, MY GOD! I PASSED! WHOO!
