Yesterday seemed a long time ago Nervous - my brain fully saturated Today seemed too short Anxiety leads to sleepless nights What seemed like the hardest trial Laid on the shaky desk Black print on green paper Corporate Finance was the theme Dividend policy is irrelevant Modigliani and Miller said Shareholders are indifferent They stand to gain anyway This seemed painfully familiar I am sure I came across it Dug deep into my vague memory Excravated pieces written down hopefully The clock ticked quickly A couple of hours flew past Relief filled my heart Regret written all over my face I could probably scrape through this Just a pass was all I wanted Determined not to let this aftermath Haunt me and spoil my day It is my last paper afterall My last day in college I ought to be happy with myself I deserved it anyway! |

Yes you deserve it, and one day in the future you will read this poem again with a different perspective. Well written I enjoyed, thanks for sharing. Regards, Olias. |

I am very happy for you...regretfully I never took that courageous step in life. And that is something I have to live with. |

Magnus, you shouldn't regret about not taking that step in life. Well, seriously, I believe, there are many routes to take to come to a goal. I feel that being happy with your life is most important...  [This message has been edited by Mon Cherie (edited 11-24-2001).] |

Irish Rose, OLIAS, James, Magnus, Seymour: Thanks guyz for giving this a read, and taking the time to comment... Your well wishes is very much appreciated!  Well, at the risk of sounding too arrogant, I feel proud of myself too... hehe  But the more I think of it, the more apprehensive I get. Wonder how I fared for that paper. I really pray hard that I could just pass. It's not too much to ask for, I hope.[This message has been edited by Mon Cherie (edited 11-24-2001).] |

And you passed! Cheers!  i think this was better written than most of your pieces..my peeve would be that your stanzas seem rather detached from one another... just my opinion, of course... |

hmm, oh i forgot to tell you this..what i like about your stuff is that you always manage to include all those contradictory feelings in your works... i think my works are too one-dimensional..hmm, need to work on that... |

OOh... Didn't know there's actually something unique about the things I wrote. Yeah, quite true that most include conflicting emotions, but that's my state of mind most of the times... hahah. :P And yes again, I know my stanzas seem to be talking abt totally different things, but it happened in my attempt to keep things short. So, do I just keep my work long so that they seem complete? _,,,^.^,,,_ Florence [This message has been edited by Mon Cherie (12-24-2001 12:22 PM).] |
