Is it just me, or is anyone else excited knowing that as we've learnt the entire course now, it's all up to us to do whatever we want from now on?
I'm actually looking forward to smashing out these practice exams over the holidays.

And I guess the fact that I have my final SAC tomorrow makes it a whole lot easier to fully focus on pure revision.

Exactly 7 weeks from today last until the English exam.

Yeah, feeling the same. Other than Unit 3 exams for Biology and Chemistry which I've been lightly working through during this term, I've only done a handful of trial exams and my initial results haven't been to my liking (unlike last year where my marks were pretty high from the beginning) but my teachers reckon that this is normal and everything will resolve itself when I start doing the trial exams more seriously (this will be Term 3 holidays for me). That being said, I'm looking forward to finally taking complete control of my own learning and studying. For now, my focus has been re-reading my English texts and tying up everything for Biology rather than exam revision at the moment. I'd rather start everything properly at once than have things at different stages.

How's everyone going,

Looking forward to the holidayssss?

'holidays'

My Biology teacher added in an extra SAC at the last minute. Feeling pissed off with the guy in general.

Other than that, it's all going well. My final English SAC is tomorrow. I'm being told to make sure that I actually rest a little bit these holidays, but that doesn't feel right with me. I've rested heaps in this last week so I'd rather just go all out.

It's like the calm before the storm. Or is it the eye of the storm? How far into the storm are we? I know the storm ends when exams are over...

Used all the paper in the library printer because of practice exams...

It's the eye of the storm

Nah honestly, it's fun as. Don't fear it, embrace it and change your perception on it (and you can take that advice through life).
I don't know what your perception is now, probably "oh god, so much work".
Chane it to something like "sweet, a chance to improve" or "fuck yeah, an excuse to be anti-social!" or "THIS. IS. SPA EXAAMM PERRRIOOOOD!"

Exam period is honestly like the best strategy+defence game ever. And like a level-up game. You get EXP for prac exams and teaching people, and then you fight Lessers and catch Lobbies, then level up and be like "THIS ISN'T EVEN MY FINAL FORM" and get constant positive reinforcement as you watch your scores increase and see yourself improve. It's great. (And have a fuck load of skittles, skittles everywhere)

Good old times in Karamja right? Fish some lobs, get a slave to make fires and kill lessers.

You had me at gain exp, then once again at final form.
Also, crunchy m&ms are usually on my desk rather than skittles

Last English SAC done!!! Now to watch On the Waterfront again, take a teeny break and then hit the trial exams hard.

[teletubbies_95]

Away from all the practice exam talk!
We had our last ever lip synching ((( my house did " Internet sensations" , like gagnam style and the Harlem shake , and the everyone in the audience ,who was in our house , started doing it as well. It was crazy . Pure awesomeness. Great way to end the term.
