TIME WITH AN ANGRY HIPPO

I'll Follow You Into the Dark(reminds me of when Nate
sang it to me)
The Past Recedes
Am I Wry? No
kind of sum up what I'm feeling right now.

It is a relief to know that the worst is over. If today's math paper were an animal, I think it'd be something like an angry hippo. It completely squashed me. I don't plan on passing. Otherwise, things went relatively well. I decided to wing Psychology but encountered issues with definitions. Once I wrote shy of 300"palabras" (250word minimum), I stopped and fell asleep 
 I love that the Spanish writing exam is so relaxed - working at a steady pace I could finish in 20minutes. However, it did worry me a little that people continued to write long after I had decided I was finished.

Starting gettings cramps after the last exam finished around 345 
so Rei accompanied me to the SAN so I could do some Panadol popping and then we shared a cab, he let me borrow his EZLink card to pay for the entire ride home


Tel just told me I've done 7hours worth of exams, I find it weird that she counts in hours because I've been counting in sessions(how many times I have to enter the hall) and it sounds alottttt more in hours. I promise not to write
anymore about the exams themselves because these don't even count!

However, I will say that I actually kind of enjoy them to an extent because I like peering around while everyone is working 
 I enjoy seeing everyone so concentrated, it is endearing. I love their quiet faces. As though I'd been transported to some alternate universe where everyone loses their stereotype and they are just aliens trying to past a paper, prove their worth. It is so silent and cool in there, and I like the small sounds of shuffling, scribbling, paper rustling, a few wheezes, chair scraping, sighing, feet movement.

Alala!
I have to pick up the speed and do an exhaustive amount of studying for History and Biology
