my final exams were coming fast
I was nervous, can you blame me
my whole future could depend on these exams
I wanted to go to the university

I was definitely scared for the geography exam
it’s not my favourite thing
during the exam everything seemed to fail
I thought I was dying

I absolutely wanted to do everything to avoid the oral for English
because she had a concussion we didn’t have to do it anymore
the teacher for English isn’t what you call a nice lady
so I was thankful to the lord

the rest went good enough
but that doesn’t take the nervousness away
to hear my results
I had to come back in a couple of days

I already knew I had passed when I got my diploma
I even won an award for one of my tasks I had to do
when I got my rapport card
I noticed I had passed all my exams too

After a drink in school I could proudly go home
the next day my grandma was on the phone with my mum
she wanted to know how it went, I took over the phone
and I just screamed to her: “University here I come!”
