Yes yes yes - you can
Open that door and walk in - I can tell you that every person in that room is having a nerve-rush
I have done so many exams as a mature aged student - I know the feeling - actually I like it
You are prepared - you can open that door and walk in and totally ignore everything but the moment
Except you need to breathe - breathe - breathe
I am that wise old owl on the desk where you will sit - I can't talk to you - I know you can't use your phone - but I am thinking - aw - I am even invisible
In you go - one two three - open the door to your future

Well - at least you are not late and people are helping you out
I am so glad you opened that door - if you had not you would not have realised you were in the wrong place
Anyway - keep breathing - I have forgotten to breath sometimes - my body reminds me - so will yours
Keep going and watching for any owls

Keep going - keep going - keep going
There are nurses around - they are often helpful - useful and friendly even
Keep going - and distract yourself with your phone - I know how that works

Any old owl will do - I can find a recycled one for you
