I should really be studying.

I should really be studying.

I've struggled to study all day.

I've been going since last Friday (so, a week now), studying for exam after exam. Thankfully, they've all gone extremely well, probably thanks to most of the studying.

Today is the really hard one though. The one that matters most, and the one that will be the most difficult to pass (of course). I just feel like I'm not going over anything that's helping me- I've looked at the stuff so much it's just second nature to know what the next word in the sentence is. Normally, that'd be helpful, but this guy's exams always look like you've never seen what he's talking about before.

I've been studying for ages myself, and only portions of it are going into my head. It's ridiculous. My exam is on Tuesday and I'm nowhere near prepared for it.

Good luck for the exam, Matt. Do that useless Korean man proud.

I should practice for my Spanish oral exams... Speaking Spanish is much harder than other areas of it. Maybe I will beam Sergio here.

Thank you so much Kieran, means a lot.

How's life otherwise for you?

Bad. Haha.

If I don't get a B in this Geography exam on Tuesday, there is a slim chance that I won't get into university. The other two are a walk in this park but this is just too far. Other things beyond education are bugging me too.

What about you?

Sort of the same actually. The stress over this exam today has put me over the edge. Haven't had much room to enjoy life lately. If I don't get a fairly stellar grade on this exam, I'll be retaking the class again. Even if I don't fail it, but can't score above a C- or so, I'll probably be stuck retaking it.

Never really done so poorly in a class before, its affecting me hard even if it might not be a terribly huge deal. I see it as a huge deal, though.

Hopefully everything turns out okay for the both of us. My thoughts are with you, too- good luck on your exam.

It would be a huge deal because it's important to you. I've had it....the class I was in I didn't care for so much but it affected me hard.

Good luck to all those on exams; I know how stressful they are but within that, do take it easy,

Thanks Drew, I appreciate your understanding.

Once its over, I'm not going to worry about anything until the grade comes out. And once it does, its beyond my control anyway. I'm pretty good at keeping my head up. Too many things to be excited for and enjoy anyway- in 2 hours time, I won't have this weight on my shoulders anymore.

I've enjoyed life maybe a little bit too much recently as I've been to a few parties recently and it was my last day of school ever on Tuesday so we have this thing called 'muck-up day' where we are allowed to do whatever we pretty much want. Like, our year started a dubstep rave in the concourse - absoutely hilarious, I'm telling you. We then go to the woods nearby at night, and there it just got highly depressing for me that I left. So I haven't changed since then, been in such a crap mood because of the exam and a couple of issues that are surrounding me.

But even then, I was studying before all that, and I only had that one day off. I've worked so hard, but in the end, it could be for nothing as I may still completely bomb it.

Thank you for the good luck. Let's just hope all the studying was worth it in the end.

Thanks Drew, hope you are doing okay!

That's it. You can only do your best, and that's all you can do. Two hours it'll all be over, Matt?

Kieran - partying during a school / study period, not the best but sometimes you know you gotta let go and say fuck it temporarily. Ha that rave would have been awesome.

Yeah life's doing alright for me. I finished my security course finally and may have a job in the next month.
