freedom

finally finished my exams this morning...
at 11:15 this morning:
it was with an understated ''thank you students", after all exams were collected, ringing through a very cold Winthrop Hall, this morning that my trial was over...
thats right, 5 exams in a week, all gone in a rush.
the last 3 days have been extremely hard for me. thank God for granting me the energy to study more or less continuously throughout the last 3 days (i had Torts, then Criminal Law, and then Monetary Econs in a row). also, thanx to someone who supported me throughout, who encouraged me when i felt i was drowning, who cheered me up when i was feeling extremely down after my horrific Torts exam. appreciate it more than you know
ahh yeah... so how were exams?
well i think i did alright for the first two, International Finance and Introduction to Finance. but i do recall it was absolutely freezing on Monday when i sat for ITF, man... that rec centre was bloody cold ehh... i left early, was just too cold (but yes, i did finish my exam =P). but yeah it was just too cold, and that + need to go to toilet = untenable situation (i didnt even check my answers - it was that cold)... then again, i wasnt the only one feeling the chill... TL, well, she wore: 4 layers on top, 2 pants, and 2 socks (and hilariously, almost wore a hot water bottle) - and she left earlier than me (well hahaha ok, so im a guy, but it was bloody freezing). thank God i got through that one.
an unfortunate consequence of doing Law/Commerce is that the Law exams are invariably dreaded (yes, thats right, much more so than trips to the dentist/ injections, which i cringe at)... so the habit is to delay study for Commerce exams, while concentrating on Law, with an often unsatisfactory end result (we shall see in 3 weeks time) ... yeah law exams are a horror
horiffic Torts and Crim exams on Thursday and Friday, followed by a night of cramming for Monetary Economics... ahhh well that was also pretty darn hard...
forget what i said ... Multiple Choice can be a b(&ch at times... and with it being worth half the exam marks... urghhh (and i used to like it at times)
but well thank God i got through it... i dont know how, by Friday night, i was a nervous wreck... so tired of studying... (well my programme for wednesday, thursday and friday had been a steady diet of study, study, some sleep, some food, and then study, oh and study again)..
It's over now anyways =D, well until results come out =(

so what have i been doing with my new-found freedom?
hehehe Naruto, JWS was kind enough to lend me the first 70 episodes (i watched the first 11 in 2 days)... going out... relaxing, sleeping pretty well, learning how to drive etc etc...
yeah just normal things... spending time with ppl... well i guess that's really important to me...
i value time spent with people above all things...
but yeah... just chillin' =D

to those of those still with exams, all the best guys...
to the rest of u, gimme a call=P
