Title: I hate exam week
Post by: yourefired on May 12, 2008, 07:02:16 am
So I'm sitting in the library at 2 in the morning trying to focus on studying except I'm either too tired or distracted to study. Time to get some caffeine :(

I'm finishing up on my final project for school.

I'm too darn old to be pulling all-nighters. :(

I'm reading my 400 page administrative law casebook. The thing that sucks is I get to pull all nighters for a week in a row twice a year for the next, oh, 7 years? (undergrad+law school+the bar). Just kill me now. :cry:

So at about 32 hours before the exam I've only read 170 pages out of the 400 I need to read in my casebook, I don't know what half the cases mean, and I'm exhausted beyond belief.

Kinda reminds me of my final exams, when we were doing the Orals there was plenty of that stuff going down. I'm sure the Examiners were getting drunk on the fumes coming off everyone going in.  :D

Lucky for me, my school is Catholic, so during Christmas, whilst the rest of the schools are doing tests, I can sit back and relax.

However, in my school, we get tests MONTHLY and for the summer. I am doing a bit of Gaeilge this week in preperation for the summer tests.

But I'm sure I'm not the only one...

 :roll:

am I?

I'm finally done with exams. Week in review:

French: Went surprisingly well. I suspect I got an A-/A or so.
Criminology: B+. Not bad.
Econ: B-. Not good, but I'm not happy.
Administrative Law: I just took it. I knew ALL the answers, however I ran out of time before I can put them down on paper. I'm very upset about it.

Now I'm just waiting for my airport shuttle to come whisk me to the airport where I'll finally be on a plane home. :cry:
