Does anyone else get tense and muscle pains when they're taking an exam? It happens to me all the time and I am wondering if there is something I can do (or take) to relax. Thanks!

I learned how to twirl my pencil around my thumb. You can see what I'm talking about in this video. It's the one that looks like a helicopter propeller going around the thumb.

Anyway, once I learned that it's been a great stress reliever during finals. I'll get into the test and not even realize that I am twirling the pencil. Nervous habit now. the hazard is sending the pencil flying two rows over in the middle of the test.


Edit: spelling
