Not so much revision... more like just... vision..!
Oh good grief! I have my first exam tomorrow and I am now officially freaking out! I've not done near enough revision for it, I've only just read two of the books and I keep getting uppity that we never covered certain things, and then I remember how many lectures I missed (they were at 9am! The morning after student night! It was inevitable!) I don't deserve to use the Hermione icon - she would be ashamed of me!
Our lovely tutor has given us a vague outline of what to expect (or at least, what not to expect) and I hope that what he referred to as 'the Vampire question' is a good'un as that's certainly been the emphasis of my revision. If not... I may as well not bother really. *manic grin*
I feel that all I've really learned about Gothic fiction this semester is that secretly all men are homosexual and everyone wants to get laid by a vampire, or something. The worst thing is that our tutor is something like the world's foremost authority on Dracula and the Gothic, so it's not like I can bluff my way through with my usual bravado, he already saw straight through that on the essay.
I literally cannot wait for this week, and my exams, to be over. Then I shall be a free woman, able to roam the drinking establishments of Bath by night and sit in front of the sky box for hours by day without feeling guilty! It shall be bon!!
