Look, it's The Holy Grail!
Feb. 2nd, 2008 02:35 pmAnd now for something completely different...
So, I think the exam on Monday went well enough. Even though I didn't study a lot for it. The one on Tuesday on the other hand, didn't go well at all. In fact, I didn't even hand it in because I put my math knowledge to good use and deducted that I would have too many mistakes for a passing mark. So, therefore, I will have to take the exam again. And study for it this time. Oh! Also, we did not have to translate the text about stereotypes. But the stuff we did have to translate was even worse. Buuuut, well. If it had been just the texts it would have been okay. Oh by the way, I'm studying Japanese Studies. Just to clarif...y(?) stuff. But the kanji (Chinese characters that the Japanese also use) did me in. Of course. I'm not really surprised. But Psych was cool, anyway.
And then, on Wednesday I had the written Chinese exam. To which I was an hour late. Because, yes, wrote down that it started at 13:30, buuuut on Wednesday I was convinced that it didn't start until 14:30. But that's okay. Some other people didn't have time on Wednesday, so the professor allowed us to take the exam on Thursday after the oral exam. Also, one more day to study. Because I'm not sure how well I would have done had I had the exam on Wednesday.
So, the first oral exam on Thursday went great! And the second oral exam, too, even though I had to 2 and a half hours and I had the worst headache (I didn't even try out an aspirin because those never help. Parkemed is usually the way to go, but this headache just. would no. go!). And then there was the written exam and I think I did well enough.
And on Friday I went to the hairdresser's and now I'm happy and my holiday started today. And now I'm going to take a nap and it's beautiful!
