Woo, field trip! So the weather was crap but my topic meant we didn't have to do much work at all. And it was good talking to the lecturers and having a laugh with them.
Now, on to dissertation work and revising for exams.
I have 5 written exams, plus one speaking and one listening. Oh, the joys of joint honours!
"I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. Make us all feel wonderful. We'll never forget."
I have 4. Luckily the unit I didn't really like doesn't have an exam. And there's no stats exams this year which is great because I don't really understand/enjoy stats. I have a 3hour exam where I have to write 3 essays - I can't hold that amount of information in my head! Think I'm going to have to clear my brain out then refill it with useful stuff. Lol!
Ooh, you're doing Psychology aren't you? Or am I thinking of someone else? Heh. I hope I don't have a Stats exam next year, not looking forward to it at all!
I have 5 exams, plus one "take home test" which basically gets handed out and you have a week to complete it and return it...

Yeah I am doing psychology (with social science). Not looking forward to exams at all. Have enough stresses trying to get this report written and I haven't even thought about the presentation yet (beyond thinking "oh sh*t, I have a presentation to sort out!"). The last two years there's always been the backup of resits but this year if I have to take resits it's gonna put me behind everyone else who managed to finish their degree first time round which will put me at the bottom of the CV list when applying for jobs. *panics*

Spoons, at least you can remember stuff. I get a complete brain blank as soon as I walk into the exam room. Or I remember the theory but not who wrote it or when. Or I remember a name and date but not what they said!
Am 20% of the way through my write up. Joy. Have spent the last hour trying to find good versions of the songs from Rocky Horror Picture Show on youtube. Lol!
Had hoped to get to 2000words before Sean gets here tomorrow. Am on 1,500 so it's possible but I'm fast losing interest and motivation and running out of information!

My take home thing is for political analysis, to be honest, I'm not entirely sure what I'm supposed to do for it, but then it hasn't been issued yet, so I don't know what the questions are. It will probably be an essay or something nasty like that.

I actually really enjoyed my take-home exam I had not long ago. I did some reading prior to the questions being announced so it gave me a bit more time to actually write the essay and I didn't have to fight over books.
I managed to get my calculatations done today in prep for my lab report write up! Now that the hard work is done the lab shouldn't take too long! I hope!
But also got an essay to write for psychology too! And two tutorials to prepare for! And I have work the next 3 days! Woops! Lets hope I manage to find the time! But I am just pleased I managed to get some work done today! Woo!
Going back to uni on Sunday! Can't believe the holidays are almost up! Then 4 more weeks of lectures I think then exams...woop! lol
A take home exam doesn't seem too bad but I guess they will expect more from you?
You made up your mind to torture mine!
If you read a scar like a book, you will relise the story in which you over look
Although they do expect a decent effort from you for a take-home exam, they usually only give you a week or two to do it, so I think they do go a bit easier on the marking. Or maybe my lecturer is just really nice.
Only got up to 1,400 words today. Am now drunk instead. Had people over for dinner so . . . Boyfriend coming over tomorrow so doubt I'll get much done then (got to get myself all prettified for him!). Next chance to get work done will be monday. Brother back to uni on weds. Don't even know when I'm going back. Sigh. Hate work. Really lacking motivation. Am convinced I'm not going to achieve the grade I need to.

I hate saturday exams, don't worry overly about exams this year, I find that they want you to pass, and as long as you've worked over the year you'll be fine!

I am soooo far behind in uni work... like 6 weeks worth... I can't concentrate and it just won't get done... I don't know if I deserve to be at uni anymore...
sometimes being strong means not holding back the tears but letting them fall
