Exams... I used to dread them. I get Exam Blindness lol.
Even though I *know* the answer, I will always second guess myself and put down the wrong thing.
I failed my written driving test 3 times because of it. Normally after 3 fails, you have to take an "idiot test" (as we say in Germany) but it's at the Driving Instructor's discretion. Well, she knew what was going on...so she sat me next to my brother, with the same paper, so I could um...cheat off him lol.
He passed with 0 mistakes.
I passed, by the skin of my teeth, with 7 error points (8 allowed) -- because not only did I copy it off my brother, but I second guessed myself AND HIM!
How the hell I ever passed my pilots exam with flying colors (no pun intended!) is beyond me.

As for math....
"If you have 4 pencils and I have 7 apples, how many pancakes will fit on the roof? Purple, because aliens don’t wear hats."
That's how I see math problems.
I *suck* at Sudoku. (Is there such a thing as number dyslexia?)
But give me anything to do with writing, grammar, punctuation -- I will ace it.

@MaoSphynx Mao was so nervous for your exam that he needed to poop 10 times! All paws and fingers crossed you'll passed the math exam. And I just know your going to pass your next exam. You just will pass! You just will pass! You just will pass!! You will...yes!

Exam Blindness = You know all the answers and still get them wrong because the stress of the exam turns you blind to the question lol.

Mao has started marking his territory!!He poos in distinct places.He visited his sister(Masha) today and they hissed at each other,so there was a lot of rivalry going on.We also went to visit the vet,who was off today,he was another one.

Uh oh! Has Mao ever pooped in random places before other than his litter box?
Hopefully he does not start to make it a habit!!

@MaoSphynx is it still diarrhea? It can be that Mao chooses other places to poop because he doesn't want to go in the litterbox when there's already a poop in it.

Does Masha looks like her brother Mao? Sounds like fun to visit Masha with Mao.
