I hate learning now to study. Seriously. I had 6 days to study for Bio, and I thought I got everything, but I remembered ZILCH. So I look up other ways to study the day before the exam and find a list of topics we're supposed to know.

*headdesks*

This topic list, if you fill it out like a question-answer sort of way, is pretty much the entire exam. 1000 slides worth of material in 8 handwritten pages.

*head, meet wall*

Spent 6 hours last night writing it, and BOOM it suddenly all makes sense. But but but, I'm tired as fuck this morning, cranky coz everything hurts (why does too much studying cause body aches?! IT MAKES NO SENSE! Headaches I get, but body aches?!) and I have to leave for the exam in a little under an hour.

I'll cry really, really hard (and possible go a little bit crazy) if I fail today's test. Seriously, I'm incapable of preparing all this material again. It's not in me.





In another note, remember those sweet sweet elementary school days when studying after school or preparing for a test was a half an hour affair in the evening before dinner? Then remember the slightly more painful but still awesome days in middle school when homework came to about 2-3 hours per day? Then remember the slightly more annoying high school days when you needed the entire weekend to catch up on work?

Now I get a month and I'm still behind.

Fuck it.

Ehhh whatever. I feel like it right now. My new year's resolutions! Hopefully something I can stick to this time.
( 10 Resolutions )

Okay so this happened yesterday, and I was feeling so down that I couldn't even bear to look at Chemistry, much less talk about it. But yes. I failed chemistry. It was an evil, evil, horrible exam that was unfair. The only girl in group who passed got a 31 (31 is pass) and they failed me with a 29, another guy with a 30, and several people had the range of 10-15.

BAD EXAM.

They asked the stupidest things. Although, granted that it was all covered, but with material that vast we chose the more important details to study. Like thermodynamics, or reaction kinetics, or chirality. Them asking us about the specific spin on molecules, identifying L and D isomers, and then proceeding to ask us several other questions that even our TA deemed 'not important so don't focus too much on them', I am PISSED to high heavens.

Just because of this, my exam period has extended to Jan 21st. A whole damn month of exams now, when originally it had only been 2 more weeks, Fuck you guys. Don't think I didn't notice how gleeful the head of Chem department looked while handing out papers. I think there's more than a little bitterness that everyone passed the previous exam date, huh? Way to go. Now you failed 95% of the class and created panic among the people ready to fly out for Christmas. No one's going now, thanks to you.

Fuckers.

I borrowed the skull Megan was using. Like it's a real life human skull, not a plastic replica. It belonged to a guy named Yorgov. I currently have it locked up in my closet because it has a tendency to stare right at you no matter where you are in the room.

For the next two weeks, he's going to be my best friend.

Wow. Talk about being asocial.



ETA: Added the pics below. Ladies and Gentlemen? Meet Yorgov!

This is like, my third entry in a row that's pretty much just an apology for not keeping up with everyone.

I still blame my absence from much of LJ on the lack of impala_slam in chat, but then, I hold grudges like that.

Plus, I have not doodled in ages.

You'd think, after totally not failing my classes (woohoo, 3 As and a C!) that I would have more time, but then you'd be forgetting how incredibly lazy I am. I keep meaning to catch up, then I look at my flist and all that I've missed and instead go and read fic. This is a vicious circle that I have yet to fall out of.

So I'll say I'll try to keep up with y'all, but that's pretty much a well intentioned lie.

I'm one of those people... you know the kind... we procrastinate. In fact, I used to procrastinate so much it was a wonder I managed to finish ANYTHING and I somehow managed to actually pass everything in my Bachelors. But now? Whoa. Talk about change.

One month before anatomy exam, I started studying for it. Like really got down to it. I snuck anatomy material in between studying for other subjects. I carried my anatomy notes to the bathroom. I revised bones and muscles while cooking. And in one particular instance, I left an anatomy video running on loud while I showered.

And know what? There are 11 days left till my exam and I'm only halfway there.

*dies*
