    Did the first exam feel a little surreal to anyone?

    Like all the hype of 13 years, just for another paper. I didn't even feel conscious of the fact it was the HSC, just another examination paper in a long string of papers. Did anyone feel this kind of detached way during it? It was quite bizarre.
