I failed the Computer Communications exam/test with a fair margin. I know this because, well, I didn’t bother studying for it. (Should I pass, it’d be a bloody fucking miracle.) Instead, I’ve been studying for my upcoming Biology exam which is taking place on Wednesday afternoon. Two days to go (well, almost) and I feel like I know it. That accomplishment alone is worthy of some attention! Last week’s exam went really well and so, I feel remarkably driven. It’s an odd feeling as of late. Which is a good thing, despite it being the end of the semester and all …
In between studying and, well, doing nothing really, I, for reasons unknown, decided to take a shower, fix my hair, put on mascara as well as equip myself with earrings and a necklace. This is odd because, after all, it’s me — I rarely get these sudden urges to “act like a girl”. On top of that, I feel like going on a shopping spree and get my hair cut. M’s feelings regarding this: “So sweeeeet” were her words.
At the moment, I feel tired and content listening to ‘Gargoyles, angels of darkness’ with Rhapsody.

I feel tired for a change. Lying on the bed resting didn’t do wonders, however, as my head is slightly aching instead now. It’s a rather annoying feeling, considering my brain’s too exhausted to do any decent coursework (i.e. finishing that damn Biology report). Not am I going to try and sleep either for that matter, as it’ll only make cause me to be less able to sleep later tonight. It’s quite vicious. As for the good news, I passed yesterday’s Biology exam. Surely, I failed on one of the questions, but I basically aced the rest of the exam.
Following that, I feel motivated enough to study for next Wednesday’s exam as well. I might just ace that one as well, which would be great. Biology aside, I have two presentations and one exam to go: Swedish presentation about Yiddish, chemistry presentation about ceramics and the exam is about Computer Communications. The first two: no problems. The latter … Ouch. Just ouch.
What I should be doing next is: study or clean the gerbils’ cage. I am too tired to study. So, I suppose I’ll give the gerbils the attention that they need so much (considering I’ve basically ignored them for several weeks. Yes, I fail completely on that point.) Should the improbable happen and I get my brain cells back afterwards, I’ll study for awhile. Failing that, I’ll simply log WoW.
Speaking of which: my druid reached level 61 and 300 skill in Leatherworking yesterday. So, she’s just entered Outlands and is waiting for me to get her some new gear. As much as I’m looking forward to gearing her up as a DPS caster (and later on as a healer), I think I’m going to miss being feral and sneaking up on enemies from behind. Oh well. One can’t get everything.

As it turns out, I’m terrible at keeping this updated. And now that I do intend to write something, I’m merely doing it as an act of procrastination when it comes to studying. Yes, tomorrow is the day. The day when all hope will be lost in translation forever. Well, not really, but I like the dramatical tone. I can’t really say I’m looking forward to tomorrow’s Biology exam, mainly because I’m not as prepared as I’d like to be. As of the past few months:
I’ve. Been. Slacking. A. Lot.
As a matter of fact, I do believe I spend more time online than I do in school, which is quite terrifying because school takes up 7-8 hours of my weekdays. In some ways, I’d call myself a game addict as I do play a lot. The thing is, though, that I don’t play merely just to play. I interact with people (even if they are indeed a few hours flight away), I have fun and I’ve come in contact with such great people. This is where my addiction lies — with the few but great people. (Yes, this includes even you, Steve, should you be reading this.) It’s not the game on its own that keeps me pinned in front of the computer screen.
As I was saying, I’ve been slacking a lot. Fortunately, it’s soon over for the semester. Two and a half weeks to go. During these few days, I have three exams: two Biology ones (I hereby admit to failing the first one *slaps self*) and a Computer Communications one. For next year, I do hope and plan to keep my coursework under control and not succumb to fellow guild members’ needs. To keep myself motivated enough to accomplish this, I am going to brag: 99% A’s in English B and Swedish B. I haven’t felt this accomplished for three-four years, school-wise at least.
Now, I am going to study for that Biology exam and actually learn something for a change.
