FINALS

Err okay so I was supposed to update my blog like after the last Macro exam which seemed to be ages ago..guess I forgot whoops. I'll probably do a recap of this sem after I go home and have nothing to do but rot my brains out during the hols. Anyway, finals are starting in two days time so as you can imagine, everyone's in a super sombre/*short-fuse* kind of mood. I've been trying to escape the tension in the house by hoofing it off to Fisher, where I must admit the growth in my y (output/capita) has been exponential, compared to me sitting in my room and trying to bully my brain into submission. There's no denying the tension/stress as you walk down the aisles on the 8th floor, but at least you don't have to face anybody since we each have individual cubicles. This sem's STUVAC seems to be even more intense the last one: tennis at 7am, library by 9-10 am and round the clock studying until 10pm. I've pretty much put in the same or slightly more effort this semester, but the material just seems to be much more difficult this sem. Throw in a killer Commercial Law subject and you have a recipe for ultimate disaster lol. Again, I have revised my expectations downwards (from the ultimate goal of 4 HDs to 3 HDs and 1D) because I probably didn't put in enough work/didn't do as well as the first semester. But I guess that's normal. No one comes to uni and gets a string of HDs all the way to third year since it only gets harder and harder each sem.

The only good thing to have come out of STUVAC is..STUVAC SUPPERS! It was apple pie on Monday, TimTams on Tuesdays, Shin Ram Yun/Indo Mie on Wednesday, Krispy Kremes on Thursday and Indian food/Diwali celebration on Friday (which I missed). Tonight's the one everyone's been looking forward to, Pizza! :) I swear IH is contributing to our misery, by making us fat on top of being stressed and miserable haha. I can't believe that first year will be over in two weeks time, its been one heck of an interesting year and it's really sad to think that I'll only have 2/3 more years of the student experience to go.

As much as I'd love to go on reflecting/waffling, I guess it's time to get back to Econ.

Monday 8/11 ACCT 1002 (55%-need > 47.2% for HD)
