Countdown to the German History and Culture exam: only two full days left. Number of hours of revision done: 0.5. Number of hours of revision planned for tomorrow: um...
Yes, it's exam period up here. It feels proper weird not to be out on a Saturday night. The main nights out here are Tuesday and Saturday, and neither of them have happened this week. It's all very, very strange. Everybody's constantly locked in their rooms, revising away solidly... Yet I can't quite find the momentum.
In a pure, procrastinating revolt against the revisionness, me and J went down to town today to buy stamps and ended up hiring a rowing boat and going up and down the river for an hour. It was a very happy hour. j was actually really good at rowing, but I was crap. Beyond crap. Every five seconds she was shouting 'pull on that one! we're going to crash!' though we only actually DID collide the once... or twice... or something...
We're planning to get all ten of our lot down to the river one day after exams, you can get boats which fit up to seven or eight people in so a couple of them and we'll be sorted. Ahh I can just imagine it now... all the other guys take the piss out of D all the time, so we're planning to put him in a boat with T, M and G, just to see the hilarity that will definitely ensue. They'll probably push him out or something.
As I tend to document my daily food intake in here, I should probably mention that I had roast chicken with roast potatoes (yay!) and carrots for tea today. Lovely. I should probably talk a little less about food... Though saying that, I do have a pack of sushi, chopsticks and some wasabi on the desk next to me at this moment in time. Whoever said it was wrong to eat after about eight in the evening obviously has no life and no gastronomic (is that even a word?!) sense in the slightest. Food tastes best after midnight!
Right I'm going to go back to my 'revision' now... OK, fine, my determined ploughing through of Skins Season 2 on 4OD. Hey, I have a roughly 60% average on my essays so far, the exam won't be all that disastrous... Ahem. Maybe. Oh look, it's D flashing up on MSN. Perfect: more procrastination!
