-----Please Don't Take the QUIZ-----
Back in the university days, once we had two quizzes in different courses on the same day to prepare for. It was too much pressure for us because the content to be covered for both the quizzes was equally lengthy. We could not prepare ourselves well for either because time was so short yet the material was so elaborated.
Then came the day when my classmates and I had to face the challenging quizzes. We gave the first quiz, and boy was it overwhelming!! Next came the turn for the second quiz. We were all so weary after the first one that somehow we wanted to eliminate the pressure of a second one.
The teacher came in with his hands full of quiz question papers. The very sight made us so sad. Some of the bold and naughty students screamed and shouted out, "Sir, please don't take the quiz!!" The teacher was surprised but yet joked, "With one shout from the class, do you think I will get scared?" This time there was a bigger roar of request from the class. Sir, please don't take the quiz!! The teacher replied coolly, "I am still not scared!!" And now, there was a huge roar of laughter from the class, and I found myself laughing as well, overcoming from the overwhelm that flooded me.
We gave the second quiz anyway, and it did not turn out so bad for us after all! Sometimes a little light hearted laughter can do the trick.
