Hello, my myriad of fans!

Greetings

So, the results are back. 'Are you happy with your results?' people ask me. Well, I'm not screaming madly and running around in circles, so I guess I'm ok with them. But neither am I running around with a funny hat on my head, laughing, with a bottle of something sweet and bubbly in my hand.

My last blog post seems so long ago as I am concentrating so hard on not tihnking about thinking about my exam results (quite the paradox as Katie@UniAccess says!).  But it's still only Friday evening.  Good job I'm off out tonight - hopefully that'll take my mind off it.  Although someone said that the results might come out earlier than the official date (Monday).  Does that really happen...?

Does that sound like a lot?  102 hours?  apparently that's when the exam results are *out*.  So my efforts to not think about it are completely not working despite my (small) logical brain telling me that there is nothing to be done about it now, the results were decided weeks ago blah blah (maybe i AM turning into my mother...).  Either way it sounds like an example of my logical brain being at war with my emotional one (and guess who's winning!?). 

I soooo know what Lisa is talking about.  It seems that I spent my whole life preparing to get INTO university and now I've been here for one Semester it has just gone by in a flash.  Have I really completed half my first year??

anyone know when the Semester 1 exam results are out...?  I keep getting asked!!

I am bored.

But not because I don't have anything to but because ... I'm not sure.

There are two essays (2,000 and 3,000 words respectively), one assignment and the usual lines of Latin waiting patiently for me. Yet ... I am bored.  

Guess my brain has wisened up and decided it will be bored not only when there is nothing to do but when there is nothing of interest to do! Damn, I'm smart!

...

I'm still bored though ... 

I'm sure you're NOT still under your doona but in case you've slightly lost touch with all things uni related - Semester 1 EXAM results are out today!  Whilst some of you may have been on the edge of your chair/a cliff/the abyss waiting for your results - surely it's best if you just quickly look at them now and get it over with.  You don't even have to tell anyone what you got...

Four down one to go. Thats the equation I'm faced with at the moment. I've completed four exams and damn I'm feeling good about it. I'm one of the unlucky few who have an exam on the final friday which is shocking but theres not much I can do about that. At the moment I'm pretty stoked still even though that exam is a fair way off because it is just an elective which I've almost passed already, and I've finished all my med units which are of most importance to me.

Exams are almost upon us and I bet like 99% of the other students at UWA I could really do with a an extra week of study to prepare. The stress levels are slowly increasing and it's bringing back definite memories of the TEE. Those were the last exams I sat less than a year ago and it feels like just yesterday I was nervous about those exams. University exams though are a whole new kettle of fish and differ vastly to those had at school.
