    Righteo, so English paper II in an hour and a hald.

    Post what you're hoping for and call back later to let us know howya did.

    I'm gonna be taking; Yeats (only poet I studied)
    Vision and Viewpoint (my friend just emailed me his old one, stick to my brain, stick to my brain!)
    Annnnnd eh, King Lear, surely watching the DVD counts as study.



    I'll be back on to cry about this later.

    I'm gonna do the least evil questions and get my marks from full stops and commas.

    Shano has the same poets & comparative as me :D

    Literary Genre
    Boland/Longley
    Seriously worried about Lear, hoping it's something easy!

    Yeats, Longley, and to a lesser extent Kavanagh and Boland (I basically learnt the quotes for those and not much else, but I think I could handle writing on them).

    Literary genre and cultural context. Really wish we didn't have a comparative question though! I'm very shakey in these.

    For Lear I basically know what happens in the play, what each character is like, and a load of quotes. I think I'm ok for it, but not looking forward to it.

    Meh I don't wanna do this exam. It's way too long.

    Am I the luckiest person on earth or what??

    Well not so much turns out just reading someone elses V&V essay before the exam doesn't give you the magical ability to somehow be able to write on your self, at least I attempted though. :)

    Hmm, but as for time keeping OMG I coulda died, I only got maybe 6/7 pages written in total, that totally cramped my awsome style.

    All in all I was pleasantly surprised at how "ok" it was.

    What about everyone else?


    Oooh poor DancingQueen Longley/Boland? What'd you do?
