After spending a night "revising" at a friends house - and by revising I mean listening to relaxing music, doing 5 minutes of work before succumbing to the sins of YouTube, Tumblr, and the fun of company - I realised how much exams have ruined my life. I can't remember the last time I randomly just watched a film with someone, or went into town, or went to the pictures, or went on a brisk walk to the recycling facilities at Tesco (this is actually a great green activity for empty Sunday afternoons that you shouldn't knock until you've tried). I'm going to bed earlier due to exhaustion, so missing late night fun things such as tv, and texting people silly things. Plus truth only comes out when your predisposed with tiredness. Now texting is a distraction. Well not really, but I do miss it. My theory is that when life is boring, you textual communication follows suit.
I wonder when my exams are over, if things will go back to the way they were pre-exam. I hope so. I can't wait to watch Les Miserables on Friday and organise some fun outings, and generally get back to life.
The end is certainly near. One more day of revision to go! Though honestly, I'm already at the end of my tether, feeling I'm not really learning anything, and just hoping that some knowledge has sunk in and that we get a nice question (oh please god I need the right questions) but I feel even if I am abit stuck I'll just wing it.
I am aware that "winging it" is not a good revision technique, but in life sometimes you've just got to do the best you can with the resources you have.
