No I am not a rampet drunkard, but red red wine seems to be the most appealing song at the moment. Its been a pretty full on day, with an exam this morning and a night full of study.
The exam today was for foundations of IR which I only needed 10% from the exam to pass the unit... I guess its called hard work all through out the semester, but anyway I was a pretty alright exam ... if you studied... which I kinda neglected to do. Don't get me wrong I am not a slacker but I just could not get motivated. IR for me is one of those minimal effort maximum output type units and I had something to write for in each section so hopefully I did Ok.. But one never knows after moderation and scaling. This would be my 4th exam which leaves me with one more to comtemplate.. the dreaded ITF (Intro to finance)- or for me Intro To Failing. Honestly I wonder WHY am I even trying to do finance?? It's my worse unit and its the one I placed the most effort in. I actually stayed up-to-date and even then I went to all the lectures and did all the tutes.. although there was an ulterior motive there.... which I must say has been sidetracked and killed - I've given up hope on that situation guys!!
So what to do? Put in a hard day and nights worth of study I suppose..... but even then will I be able to bounce back and do well??
Overall though I have to say I've been more relaxed about these exams - even with the taxing timetable and the lack of sleep I've been having as well as bad skin and lack of motivation. I think I'm more prepared + I haven't needed super marks to pass any of my units - which is a godsend!
OK so enough about ms academic.... other stuff
The looming holiday period or lack there of.... I think I'm more stressed about how I'm gonna fit everything in as well as get a goods night rest. The 24th of June - the last day of exams for everyone... and its going to kill me. Its one of my closest uni friends birthdays, one of my closest guy friends birthday, an ol school mates birthday and my friend is leaving and having a going away party. Why is it that every weekend of the semester when I'm free ( as yes there are times when I'm free) no one plans to do anything and as soon as exams come around I have to decide between all my friends??? HOW IS THIS FAIR??? the problem is I've already said I'll go to my friends going away party because she invited me before anyone else and now I honestly dont know what to do. The going away party is such a small group and I would love to make an apperance at all 4 places but I can't drive... (which is on the to do list for the holidays - as well as catch up with everyone)
I cant choose what I should or even want to do, because either way I know I'll disappoint someone. So don't kill me if I have to make hard choices.
In other news my head hurts because I've been thinking too much and for some strange reason I cant sleep.. brain keeps tick tick ticking so instead of getting my 4-5 hours of sleep I end up with even less. Maybe I need some of that red wine??
Anyways I think I've rambled enough for one night - man its good to have a blog again.. only this time people know about it so I cant express my feelings as openly.. but thats all part of the price huh??
Thats it from me,
Yours,

Red, red wine
Goes to my head
Makes me forget that I
Still need you so
Red, red wine
It`s up to you
All I can do, I`ve done
memories won`t go
memories won`t go
I have sworn that with time
Thoughts of you would leave my head
I was wrong now I find
Just one thing makes me forget
~ UB40 - Red Red Wine~
