Can You Feel the Pressure Now?

Pencil tap tap tap on the old wooden desk tick tock tick tock goes the battered clock, fidgeting of bottoms on chairs and shuffling of feet, scribbling ferioucly of a pen over paper, as the smart people work as hard as they can, while the people who think they are cool lounge in their chairs humming to themselves with words of disgrace scribbled over their page. Tired eyes and drooping lids clear to everyone who felt the rush, determind students with ambitions and dreams says to everyone who will succeed. Tick tick tick goes the battered clock pencil tap tap tap on the old wooden desk time is running out. Tell me, can you feel the pressure now?
