📝 One Thing I Want to Remember About Today
Today, I had three midterm exams. For the first time, I chose Bufferzone as my exam center, which was quite far from my location. On the way back, the roads were blocked due to it being the second Saturday of December. Despite the travel and traffic, I felt really good after the exams. My mind was full of thoughts about personal growth and the steps I need to take to improve myself.

🚫 What I Don’t Want to Do Today
I don’t want to waste any time. My midterms are ongoing, and I need to stay focused.
🌅 Day Start
I woke up in the morning, performed wudu, and went to offer prayer. After returning to my room, I recited verses 20–34 of Surah Furqan along with the Urdu translation.
At 7:00 am, I ironed my clothes, took a shower, brushed teeth, and got ready. At 8:00 am, I went to the mess for breakfast.
After breakfast, I took a short walk and then opened the Skool app to check the community posts until 9:00 am.
After that, I put my student ID card, CNIC, a ballpoint pen, my mobile phone, and some cash in my pocket, and at 9:30 am I left my room to go to the exam center.
I reached Tower Kharadar by R-13 bus, then took the R-04 bus to Bufferzone bus stop and arrived near the exam center by 11:45 am. After that, I got my date sheet printed from a photocopy shop.
At 12:00 pm, I reached the Vu exam center (IMST bufferzone). I revised the midterm past papers until 12:25 pm, and at 12:30 pm, the Data Structures exam started.
At 1:20 pm, I finished my paper and sat in the waiting room. I revised the Software Engineering-I midterm past papers until 1:55 pm, and at 2:00 pm the Software Engineering-I exam started.
At 2:50 pm, I completed the Software Engineering-I exam and went to the waiting room, where I revised the Computer Networks midterm past papers until 3:25 pm. At 3:30 pm, the Computer Networks exam started.
By 4:20 pm, I had completed the Computer Networks exam and came out of the exam center. At 4:30 pm, I got the R-04 bus and headed towards Tower Kharadar.
There was heavy traffic on the roads, and almost every route was blocked, especially the Sadar Numaish Road. Because of this, I reached Tower Kharadar at 5:45 pm instead of 5:00 pm.
I didn’t get time for lunch, so I was hungry. Therefore, I had dinner at Tower, which included biryani and a cold drink.
At 6:15 pm, I took the R-13 bus towards the hostel. I reached my room at 7:15 pm, emptied my pockets, kept my mobile, performed wudu, and went to the masjid to pray Isha.
Then at 8:00 pm, I returned to my room from the masjid and started reading the community posts. I was tired due to travlleing, so I rested until 10:00 pm.
I was thinking a lot about setting my goals related to Health & Personality, Spiritual growth, and Public Speaking, and which steps I need to follow. I wrote all of this on my writing pad until 11:30 pm.
Then I wrote yesterday’s daily journal and posted it in the community, and went to sleep at 12:00 am.
Day End.
