I've been feeling really stressed the last two days, I think I've only just noticed it about 2 hours ago. Everyone is a bit on edge about things (including myself) and nothing is really indicating to me that I'm on holidays (apart from the whole not having to go to classes thing). I guess winter does have an effect on all this sort of stuff, I whole heartedly blame him for everything that is wrong at the moment.

Blah its 3am. I got out of bed before cause I couldn't sleep, this was probably due to the fact that I had a whole packet of home brand mint slice (bar three) before bed. So basically I've killed the last three hours posting on forums, watching crap I've downloaded and play san andreas.

Thinking about Tom Cruise these days makes me feel uneasy, seriously. How the hell am I suppose to watch WOTW when it comes out?

I sure do keep spelling the words, "rescission", "misrepresentation" and "Fraudulent" wrong.
Good times...

One more to go, the exam this morning went pretty terribly in my eyes, it will be touch and go if I pass I think (I'm trying to be very optimistic). So we'll just see what happens, I'd like not to do that subject again.
Contracts is tomorrow, I feel so hella tired at the moment as I've had very minimal sleep the last couple of days. I hope I can keep up the good fight to keep studying cause I really really need to, tomorrows exam will be a killer!

Astro is going to buy me dinner because I am freaking out too much to be any use to anyone (Even myself). She doesn't feel like doing anything either after she has been studying all day, but she does, and she does it with a smile. She is the best girlfriend ever. I am a very lucky guy.
I have an exam in under 15 hours, I'm starting to fall into this deep depressive, tired funk as I am studying and getting shit wrong and coming across stuff I have no idea about (and I probably should know), the only way outta this is to keep going and then get up tomorrow and do this exam. And then hope to god I do ok. Then straight after this nightmare I am going to be going nuts over revising for another exam that I'll have in just over 20 hours from finishing the last one. This sort of stuff drives me insane and sends my stress levels through the roof, every semester I feel like its less worth it, I've been in Higher Ed. for 4 straight years now and heading into my fifth, I feel like I should take 6 months off like everyone else does just to have a break, but I don't really want to do that, I just want to get this all done so I can move on to another life goal. This shit be dragging out forever and I've pretty much have been going as fast as i can with getting my degree.

Man why do I have to be studying on such a nice day, whinge whinge whinge.
I'm going to do some hardcore loafing next week thats for sure.

I really really wish I had more time so I am not studying in excess of 12 hours a day. But I don't, I really wish tomorrow was Monday, Monday is only 2 days away from my FM exam and 3 days away from my Contracts exam. I wish I did a degree that had no exams, but then I guess, I wouldn't learn as much (or something like this).
Blah I'm too tired to think straight.
Well I did say i'd be freaking out if my FM wasn't in order by tonight, I think I am getting it under control. I need to put more work into it but I think I can get my revision to the point that I can go in to this exam and not fail, I've been working on my contracts stuff tonight and at least I am getting somewhere, this is good. Hopefully by the end of tomorrow i'm feeling more on top of things.

My beard is itchy :/ .
Ok so I think I am starting to get financial management under control, I've gone from thinking it could be a lost cause to there being some hope that I will turn up on Wednesday and will remember at least some of the formulas and the processes on how to do some things.
However I'm yet to get really started on my contract law stuff and at the moment I am feeling total despair towards doing the exam. I feel like I'm going to turn up on Thursday morning and will hardly remember an cases or what the hell I'll be trying to get across in the questions. I'm going to get really stuck into it tonight so maybe by tomorrow I will not think all is lost, fingers crossed.
Joli your summaries are helpful! I've had a quick read and I think i'll find some of it useful, you guys use a lot more cases than us (that is to be expected I guess) and maybe of a more general "Australian" nature (we tend to use Victorian cases for some things). Still they are very much worth a read! Thanks!

One exam down 2 to go, today was the "easiest" of all my exams, it was company law and the exam was only worth 50% and only covered half of the semesters work as we've had two mid semesters hat covered the first. I think I did okay, I was freaking a bit at the sart but I got a hold of myself. The next two exams are on Financial Management, which will be my hardest exam as its all maths, covers everything i've done throughout the semester, is worth 70% of total mark for semester, you have to memorize a lot of formulas and the little variations on the way they ask questions will kill you. Then 21 hours after that I have a contract law exam which will be my second hardest, its worth 75% and covers 75% of the topic, there is sooo much shit I have to remember for that and strangely enough I find contract law more boring than company law. By about Sunday night I'll be freaking out if I haven't got a lot of the financial management stuff under control, its really important that I split my time evenly between both subjects but i know I'll end up spending a shitload of time revising Financial Management.
Can't wait till this semester is over.

Gawd damn I feel tired tonight, however media watch made me feel better (Although angry at our government) oh well.
tomorrow is another early rise and studying like crazy, I slacked off today due to all this car crap going on. Not good. All my car troubles always happen around the time of my exams! Maybe the world is trying to tell me something.

Sheesh, last nights car break down is going to cost me $1050, yeah thats not a typo. :/
Can you all say "Clean me out and then some?"

And leaf blowers right, they are the most overused and overrated gardening tool ever. The fuckers that "care take" or "garden" around here (which is pretty much a street half full of blocks of 3 story flats) they seem to use leaf blowers pretty much as some sort of universal tool, they use it for everything! Instead of picking up some rubbish, Blow it! Some dirt of the stairs? Blow it! A few leaves on the ground? Blow it! Its stupid, I mean I know they are for blowing massive amounts of leaves into a pile and then scoop them up and put them in a green bin or something (which is good for this time of year I'd admit) but these guys don't even do that, they just pretty much blow all the rubbish, dirt, leaves or whatever they feel like out of the front of the flats block and into the gutter or just leave it on the sidewalk and basically leave it up the council to do something about it! Fucking lazy fuckers! I sure hope these guys get paid by the hour and not the job, because basically the job here consists of rocking up, switching the leaf blower on for about an hour and walk around the place and blow shit and then leave a giant mess of crap out the front and hope the street sweepers do something about it, then they fuck off somewhere else and repeat the process. There is pretty much no thinking or manual labour involved in this, its just walk and blow. You could train a monkey to do this sort of work, I hope there is no one out there making a decent living off this cause that would just piss me off, I bet they promise to do proper gardening and care taking and offer all these services but never do ANYTHING BUT BLOW SHIT AROUND! WWWWOOOOOOZZZZZZZ WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOZZZZ I'M BLOWING LEAVES LIKE A CRAPSTICK WITH A $2 DOLLAR HAND FAN ATTACHED! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Man its pretty freakin' cold in the morning these days, I opened up the balcony door to air out the lounge room after last nights dinner (it had onion in it so it stinks to me) and it seriously is starting to feel like im up in the snowy mountains or something, the air is so still and freezing all at the same time.

So whats been up with me? Spend most of the last 7 to 9 days (not really sure now) completing two of my final assignments for uni, one took about 15 minutes and the other took up the rest of the time. I have learnt the lesson that I should not complete 5000+ word essay at the last minute no matter how good my previous grades have been for that subject, more so when there is considerable reading and research involved for you to get a decent mark for the assignment.
But oh well, its all over now and I can at least feel a little less stressed out. I have 3 exams coming up, the first is next Thursday and then the last two on the Wednesday and Thursday following that. I have some serious study to put into these subjects so the next 12 full days are going to be hella arse, but thats to be expected I guess, here is hoping I don't go down in a burning wreck with my results!
It'll be good to finish for the semester and have a little bit of time off, I plan to do a lot of reading and stuff with my break and give many more hugs to astro! (and help her with study whenever I can), I also have to help my parents out with more IT stuff and I'll probably also try to help out my sister with her business starting venture, hell maybe I'll even get to see the grove boys more! Yay breaks.

This was actually a pretty funny article about what gamers want from the new consoles and just games in general.
