Keep going, you're almost there!

I wish I could get my hands on a black cloak and some pompoms and send you a clip of me cheering you on...then again, I could see it posted on Youtube. ;-)

Raining cats and dogs? You're an animal lover! You should be out there with a net! ;-)

Heheh. YouTube seems to be the the central hub for all blackmail there days! XD As if I'd post it there.

Have you seen those "Ask Palpatine" things on YT, BTW? I haven't had time to watch every "episode" but the one I saw the other day was very funny. :) Ask the (suitably) puppet-Palpy a question!

Its raining on and off in Ohio too. They're saying later storms can be severe.

You only have 4 exams? Well, I suppose that isn't the worst. I had 9, but I guess that they were spread over about 3 weeks so I generally had breaks between study. The first exam is always the worst - once you get into the swing of it, and you're already halfway through, it's not so bad. So the best of luck in your next two exams! After those you can really start to look forward to Australia!

But, raining? It's been gorgeous in Ireland (which goes against the stereotypical rain). Let's hope that the sun comes your way as soon as your exams finish so you can really celebrate (I know from experience that glorious weather during your exams can be really, really distracting, but then again you don't want to arrive at an exam soaking wet)!

Our modules are broken up into different types of assessment - so some are assessed by exams, some by essays, some presentations or practical handling, or a combo of several - and this year we've only ended up with 4 modules with written exams out of all them. I like that we have opportunities outside written exams to earn marks - it takes a bit of pressure off needing the best marks possible! I'm not always good at exams - it depends a lot on my memory and whether I've revised the correct things or not! Unfortunately they started us off on the "easiest" exam on Monday, about animals and social issues, leaving the science-based ones (Health & Disease and Physiology) till the last two days. I'd rather it had been the other way round!

And you had 9 exams over all? Whoah, that's a lot! I hope they went okay. :)

My assesment was broken up, too. It was really just art history. 6 of the exams were for that - I had no idea when I signed up for the course! Only three were for French, and one was an oral (but still - very stressful). I guess you should be finished your exams by tomorrow. All the best of luck to you!

Oooh, theology - I never studied that. :) I hope your exams went well!

I've got one exam left now, for tomorrow morning - "Principles of Physiology" - the worst one of the lot! Heh. I suck at remembering physiology stuff.
