sometimes an individual’s karms plays such a role with another’s attitude.

not as excited as i should have been, i awoke this morning grumpy about my exam. i never did feel that it tested my skills or knowledge.. so i started sulking to my exam. part of the way down waterman street, i heard my name screamed from someone’s car. i looked around, confused and saw that it was hyon gak sunim. he looked at me, smiled and asked where i was headed. i explained that i was off to an exam and that we should meet later in the week. he agreed, smiled and said “don’t worry about the exam. it won’t matter in 4 years.” he is totally right and when the professor asked how i did at the end, i said “it is over; there is nothing more i can do or say,” smiled and walked out of the exam. jon looked at me, asked how i did. “it is over.” every time someone asked me, i responded the same. i will know how i did in a few weeks but for now, it is over and i am happy. besides, i gained knowledge from the class.. does it matter what my “score” on the exam is? nah…
