Hey guys, g'luck for the English exam. At 12:15 pm tomorrow, IT IS OVER.

While you're in there, enjoy yourself. And if in doubt, remember. Big words and bullshit are the key components to an essay. :P

Oh and if you're stressing, remember - chances are you'll walk in there and the exam environment will make you mindful and focused.

This is solid advice, one of my friends paid over $70 to go to an English tutor who told him exactly this, just putting it out there ;D

make sure you're in the zone and don't let anyone make you lose it by telling you how nervous they feel

whenever someone tried to approach me before an exam to stress about it I was like

"NOT NOW CHAIRMAN MAO, I'M IN THE FUCKING ZEN."

be confident. be brave. DO IT.

He does go to Glenny - I thought you were gonna get a 50 in English BoredSaint, but I still find it funny how you creamed my ass on the Exam and got 1 study score higher than me.

I was never going to get 50.

Well.. Maybe if I had your teacher I would have gotten higher.. Good luck trying to get my teacher to give you a good SAC mark. She got mad at me handing her "too many" essays

ALSO

You were the one bagging me at the start of the year for switching for English Language to English, and saying how I would do shit. WELL LOOK HOW THAT TURNED OUT

AND DONT EVEN GET ME STARTED ON WHAT YOU WERE SAYING ABOUT SPECH AND SHOVING THAT RANK 1 (or wtv) IN EVERYONES FACES :P

jks I love you bro ;)

I don't understand how discrepancies can happen when essays are cross marked?
