Study Time

Well it’s that time of year again, the time to buckle down and get serious about school and attempt to pass your classes... yes my friends, it is exam time. I know that when it comes to exams, I adopt some funny habits which are mainly just excuses to not study. Suddenly I find every excuse in the book to tidy my room, reorganize my desk, finish a book (so as to prevent distraction later), paint my nails, take naps (more so than normal), wash the dishes, eat my feelings, the list goes on and on. The newest ritual that I guess can be added to the list is to completely ignore the fact that exams are looming around the corner and have a party in the afternoon. That’s what was collectively agreed upon by everyone in the residence yesterday. At 2:00 in the afternoon we had a sangria/beer party which led to a bunch of drinking games, eating, and noise. I guess it was better to get it out of our systems before exams have officially started, or at least that’s the excuse I’ll use to justify it. Anyway, I am lucky enough that I have a week off to really get into study mode and then write my two exams and escape the island to go on my adventure to the UK and France. So good luck to everyone on their exams, I’m off to finish reading a book. 


Sangria/beer party... 8:00 pm
