Pre-Blog: Exams
Dated: Wednesday 24th May 2006 at 9:04 PM
I'm taking exams at the moment... and?
For anyone who has not yet experienced this joy in life, it is not as people tell you. Everyone will describe how their friend hanged themselves from their cabin bed, or ate their arm off during a maths exam, but I haven't felt peckish yet. In fact I would say that the time leading up to exams, and especially the coursework is a much more stressful experience.
Revision for instance... I'm finding my (rather last minute) revision is something, not that has me locked in my room for weeks without food water, or not going for a dump for 6 days solid, but instead as a sporadic wave of inspiration in which I have the strange urge to consolidate bible references into a cool table, or explain the theory of evolution on a scrap of paper with too many arrows. And this only takes me a maximum of the hour between comedy programmes on Friday night.
So, in short, worry about bastard coursework, then sit back, be cool and enjoy the rollercoaster ride that is that of exams. Yeah, get a little nervous, but, in the words of my Electronics teacher, you've a lot more to look forward to in life, don't get hung back with exams. Get a life basically.
Anyway, if you've just read all that, which no one will of course, and you think I'm talking crap and that I actually should be hanging myself, whilst eating my arms and chanting "a2 = b2 + c2 - 2bc Cos A" then, get in touch and I'll put you straight.
Ooo, and if this laid back approach that I have just preached to the world causes the A* - C percentages to drop lower than ever before recorded, it wasn't me! It was my dog, I was far too busy chewing paper and slowly dying because my stomach is eating itself due to lack of nutrition.

Hi there. I just stumbled upon your blog by mistake and I have to say it's quite possibly the second-best thing I've ever read.
Naturally, it's barely a patch on www.gibbage.co.uk, but extraordinary work nevertheless.
Here's a thought! Why not pop a link to www.gibbage.co.uk in your sidebar? THen everyone who visits your site will be able to experience the JOYS of Gibbage first hand?
Best of luck with the Blog.
