Catch Up

Ha ha ha, so I just re read my last blog post. Its a bit of a rant is it not?! I have calmed down a bit now, hopefully my hormones will slowly return back to normal this cycle! But yes, hormonal contraception has been abandoned for the time being.

My exams

I finished them last Wednesday, which is nearly a week ago now. I just haven't had time to write about them at all! My first exam was on International Organisations and that went really badly. I think, if I can remember rightly, I amswered one question just okayish, and the second one really badly, so I don't expect to get more than 55% if I am VERY lucky. Not good. But it gets worse. My Economics exam was terrible. Literally shocking. I am predicting somewhere in the realms of 45 % maximum, But i did get 62% on my essay which was worth 50% so that should save me a little bit. My last two politics exams went a lot better I am happy to say. If they went as badly as the first to I would probably have quit uni by now! I felt really good after my 3rd one (hoping for a high 60% , but i have never ever got that in an exam before so I might be dreaming) and my last one I got a brilliant first question and an okay second question so am hoping for 65%. Who knows, I never got what I hoped for in my last exams. Infact. In first year, I think i did decidedly poorly in all my exams. I am so glad, I only have one next semester.

As for everything else, well, my boy is going to Kenya this summer without me :( he didn't want me to come with (its a slightly long story - volunteering) so I am decidely miserable that everyone is going away this year except me (the rest of my family are off to egypt this easter). I need to top up my tan and stop me from getting depressed. So I am going to have to come up with something. I hate having nothing to look forward to.

I have started driving! I had my second 2 hour lesson today, it was quite good, I loved my first lesson. I felt like I had learnt sooo much, this lesson felt a little bit slower, but I did make progress and went out onto a busier road down a massive hill on the way back. We were mostly doing T Junctions, left and right turns, and I think I got the hang of them, I'm not as half as bad a driver as I thought I would be. I have my theory test booked for 2 weeks time so I need to start studying for that. My aim is to pass by the end of April/start of May, so fairly quickly. But my money is running dangerously low.

Erm, nothing else interesting is going on really. I am not going to see my sister, because she never organised it for the Inter Semester Break - which is now, so I am just going to do some admin work, tomorrow, thursday and friday.

I applied for a different job this summer. I am sure I will be able to get my OU job, but I applied for a secretary position, which if I was to get would mean I would earn £5000 over the summer. How AMAZING would that be. I get all tingly just thinking about it! I would cry if I go it. Like literally, I just guess I can hope, thats all.

Anyway, I have to go. Got to make dinner,
