    Essays are awful. I always preferred just doing exams. Can't stand the continuous assessment stuff. But I may be in a minority there.

    Nah, at least with exams you don't have to worry about learning things off by heart.

    I'm that annoying guy who annoys everyone when I say "I love exams", maybe it's cos I'm a jock who plays sports so it's the challenge of exams that I like but I don't know, it's the whole one for all and all for oneness of exams/we're all in it together thing that I enjoy. And with that, in only my 3rd post, I become the least popular kid in class

    I'll be sitting in work frantically refreshing the page to get results that day. This is the same job that requires me to have a 2.1 degree. Has the potential to be an awkward day in the office.

    At least the CS240 notes are somewhat concise. I can't say the same for two other subjects, though.

    I like that he has the slides and just the notes. Makes it easier to study, I think.
    CS211 notes aren't the worst either.

    That's why I don't do philosophy.

    Well, that and an ambition to get into the gaming industry and either create a rival to Gran Turismo or bring street racing games back to the glory days of NFS Underground 2 and Most Wanted '05. :D

    Walking... I believe I skipped out of mine and then chased my friend halfway from the sports hall to Chill in absolute delight.

    ... Then we were both back there 12 months later doing masters exams.

    Thankfully, all exams are now a thing of the past! I will think kindly of all you examinees who start this weekend, as I wander around Rome, leisurely throwing coins into the Trevi fountain and perusing the coliseum.

    I'm looking for a word right now but my brain has seemingly lost its grasp of the english language !

    Whats the word when someone is laughing at someone else's appearance etc when they themselves are probably no better ?

    My brain keeps insisting its conceited no matter how many times I say no brain wrong definition !

    By the time I can use that video I will have an Oculus Rift hooked to a zimmer frame.

    I have exams now, essays in summer, year off to sort out ****(aka life) back again to do 30 credits in one year not sure of subject yet, possible nervous breakdown, year off again back to do third year, possibly win Euromillions, build Subway, Burger King and Dominos pizza and Duff Beer/Fudd Beer brewery on campus and flee to paradise somewhere over the rainbow.

    Now back to reading about Ancient Greece.
