Day 15 - Finished my first year of university!

Hi there and welcome my final day at as first year uni student!


My day started with a little sleep in and then some breakfast. I roamed downstairs in my pjs and was welcomed by a couple of strangers in our downstairs bathroom!

I forgot the maintenance people were paying a visit today, oops! Good morning!

I spent the rest of my day cramming for my psychology exam. I really enjoy psychology so I feel as though it is easy to study for and I find it really easy to understand. So the cram session was very successful...


Throughout the day I also made it my mission to finish all of my remaining food in the house and I am proud to say, the only things that belong to me in the fridge currently is milk and a jar of pickles!

Impressive, right? I never leave leftovers...

So my exam was in the stadium on the far opposite of campus from my house and it was 35 degrees. When I was halfway there, I actually contemplated taking a break from walking, but I powered on! 

I entered at 5:25pm
Started reading time at 5:30pm
Commenced my exam at 5:40pm
FINISHED at 6:45pm

HOORAY!

I walked home with a little spring in my step knowing that I had just completed the first year of my degree! I had all the feelings of accomplishment, relief and happiness.

And then I realise... 4 more years of this! Sh*t! 

Haha nah, but for now I am so glad I can reset over summer at home with my family. Which I think is exactly what I need right now.

I celebrated the completion of my exams with my housemate, Yunita, by watching Big Brother and eating KFC. Thanks Yunita!

Anyway, I am off to finish packing... HOME TOMORROW! Au revior!

Day 6 - Pre-exam cram

Hi there and welcome to my day of pre-exam cramming.


I tried it all today folks! I studied inside, I studied outside, I created flash cards, I re-wrote notes, I answered review questions... Now all I can do is trust my efforts and turn up at the exam tomorrow.

Just the feeling of relief is going to be fabulous! This time tomorrow it will be 1 down, 2 to go.

My pre-exam rituals are just like every night, keeping the stress/anxiety levels down. Tonight I have had a lovely dinner and after I write this I am off for a shower before I cuddle into bed to watch a movie. An early night is important!

So is being organised. My Frankie Magazine Daily Journal is the cutest planner you will ever see which makes it more fun to be organised. Awesome gift this festival season. You can order them here. I hope Santa brings me one!

So I have decided tonights movie is going to be Divergent because I still haven't seen it! My little sister read all the books in about two days so I am assuming it is good? I'll let you know!

Oh and as well as my exam, it is also another birthday tomorrow! My little brother, Isaac, will be turning 10! Big ol' double digits! Wish I could be there buddy.

Anyway, I am off! Wish me luck!

And good luck for everyone else currently sitting exams, I feel for you!
