Title: Fucking Exams
Post by: Simon Pieman on Tuesday, May 31, 2005, 12:17:19
How are yours all going (if applicable)? Had a mini-test (30% of unit) the other week which I got 30% in (so 9% in total)  :evil:

Just had one now and pretty much every topic my lecturer focussed on didn't get tested. How gay   :evil:

2 more to go and they're even harder :cry:

Unfortunate Si.  Chin up, and get down the pub for some serious sorrow-drowning.

I haven't been out on the raz properly since before easter. This semester has been serious suckage, I've worked bloody hard and everything is falling apart  :?

Alcohol will cure everything next week though  :beers:  :guinness:

I've had 4 so far including one today and have one tomorrow one on thursday. :(

I have gone out quite a few times since easter but not had more than a couple of pints since my birthday which was two whole weeks ago.

What is even worse is I'm likely to miss neighbours today.

SEMESTER????? Is that what terms are called now??  If that's right then we really are the 51st fucking State without any actual advantages of being a State, (i.e. you can't just go and but a dirt cheap house on Miami Beach for example)

Uni has terms and semesters. Yes it's gay, but it's always been like that. A semester is half a year

Just finished my 6 exams \o/  :advercool:

After 3 exams in the last 3 days and getting a total of about four hours sleep in that time, I'm now gonna sleep, catch up on neighbours and drink.

Still got a 5000 word report due next wednesday that I haven't started but that can wait.

First one tommorow and instead of revising yesterday I did an all day drinking session, including sitting on a pedalo thing and drinking pimms. I'm gonna give up trying to catch up on posts now and read some lecture notes. gay

Got myself a 2:1  :\/
And I know that I put in only as much effort as was absolutely necessary because my final percentage was 60.5%
And as a little bonus I won the Brighton Chamber of Commerce award for a piece of my coursework.

Ahhhhh…. The Ashes coming up, a degree, new signings, sunshine, season ticket, beer…

Just need to get myself an honest woman!

Just got my results from my second year, averaged 63% from my  exams in June meaning my average for the year was 59 and a bit % which'll do me. :beers:

Good to see that despite having no sleep at all for 30 hours before one of the exams I still managed to get 67% proving that red bull is good stuff and sleep is optional.
