Ready, set, test

posted on October 8th, 2008 in School

I’m in the middle of my first sem finals week and I’m totally drained. I just stayed up for like the whole night trying to study for my japanese exam and nothing went into my head. I can understand sentence structures and proper particle use but my vocabulary is really low and I haven’t really memorized my hiragana yet!

This has got to be the worst schedule of finals I ever had, I had my accounting final longtest monday evening and then economics final exam the next day! How are you supposed to study for something as heavy as economics when you’re going to come home from an exam that ends at 9pm! I don’t even want to think about what happened to those exams anymore they we’re disastrous! I wasn’t even able to solve one cash flow problem and I was guessing a lot of my answers in the multiple choice part!

I would have blogged about this sooner but I was just extremely busy with all my projects due last week. I did have one final exam that I really enjoyed and that was my latin-ballroom dancesport finals held at Savannah Moon in Libis, Quezon City. Imagine a final exam that takes place in a bar/ dance club where alcohol is allowed (though it cost Php 160 per bottle). It was really fun, I don’t think any of us cared anymore that it was an actual competition we just danced our hips off! Cindy and I made it to the Samba quarterfinals while Eya and I made it to the Rumba and Cha cha cha quarterfinals. It was really fun even though we had to wake up and get to school at 7:00 am the next day to practice and perform during the PE culminating events. I’m actually starting to like dancesport a lot too bad we didn’t learn all the latin dances, we missed out on one and it’s the most well latin out of all of them, the Paso Doble.

I got to get back to memorizing a few more words before I go for my Sociology Exam

    That sounds pretty insane. I took a break this semester but I didn’t even go full-time to begin with. At least your dancing was fun! That’s a good way to get rid of stress, too! Dancing is so wonderful.

    Sorry to post a reply on your comment on my site on your blog (wait, I am confused now haha) but I wanted to say that I really want to do what you suggested, but I am not entirely sure how to without messing everything up. I figure I can probably find a site somewhere that explains it nicely, I am a WordPress n00b basically. ;)

    Good luck on your exams. :) When finals time rolls around, I’m always so glad that I didn’t go to a traditional college/university, so I’ve never had to go through the stress of finals… and then I turn around and start looking at schools so I can get my graphic design degree. I’m not looking forward to finals at all.

    Ya tests totally suck. Good luck though! I’m soooo glad to be out of school so I don’t have to worry about finals or test. I’m sure it’ll all be worth it once you graduate and get out there in the real world. You won’t know what to do with your spare time.
