    Off to bed at 21:05? Madness. I've gotta stay up to watch 24. Bed about 23:30, probably won't be able to sleep untill around 00:30 though. Kind hard to believe it's only 43200 seconds away.


  • Registered Users Posts: 654 ✭✭✭DS


    Yeah 24 is a must. I'll do another bit of poetry, maybe flick through some Macbeth notes, and read my comparative again.
    Might get up early to refresh the memory, and get an extra prayer in for Theme/Issue. I hate the idea that my paper is just sitting somewhere with all the questions on it waiting for me to read it.

    "is this english paper two which i see before me, the macbeth question toward my eyes?..............................or art thou but a paper of the mind, a false creation, proceeding from the exam-oppressed brain?"

    It's funny how I managed to study so much without actually retaining any information.

    Yeah, it's great, isn't it? Going through pages and pages of notes, and forgetting you've ever even seen them before when you go back to them. If it wasn't for my insanely psychedelic orange highlighter, i'd just be going over the same page again and again and again.

    I fellow repeater! Luckily I only have to do higher English. I started studying for it less than two weeks ago and have taken a few gambles but all I need is a C3. I'll definitly be up late, my freshly purchased 'Macbeth' video awaits! Good luck people, as someone with experience of the exam I can honestly say that it's a lot of hype and isn't really that hard:)

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,943 ✭✭✭Mutant_Fruit


    Good night, sleep tight, get up early, CRAM LIKE HELL, and enjoy the exam... remember, just because no one hears you fart, doesn't mean you can't laugh about it while they suffer :p


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 583 ✭✭✭stuey

    Good luck all,

    though if you are reading this there's a good chance you are going to do terribly seeing as you should be studying:)

    Just realised that I don't know how to write a speech or start a debate. Last minute googling is never good.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,943 ✭✭✭Mutant_Fruit


    its 8:12, and i'm all prepared, C'MON YA BASTARDS! DO YOUR WORST! Wait, no NO NOOOO, don't do your worst! BE nice to me!
