Haven’t written anything for a few days and it’s like I’ve already forgotten how to pen anything.
My exam was as expected. It was as expected as what I’d thought would come out for the exam. The first number of questions I felt quite confident, as they were the sort of questions I was expecting, and had prepared thoroughly for. Then I dwelled deeper into the paper only to find some questions from obscure parts of the notes that I knew I had only glanced through but decided it was not possibly examinable. Typically wrong was I when it comes to knowing what is put on the exam paper. These questions that were theory based I sort of vaguely remembered what I read and put answers in based on that vague memory. Struggled with the practical ones as I couldn’t decide which assumptions were correct in order to answer those questions. Just a hairline away from being able to answer the question and giving it away entirely.
Anyway, hope to pass the paper, as with any subjects I have done so far. Would like to take it easier next trimester by taking the compulsory subject which is sort of like a Finance/Economics 101 hybrid subject. Hopefully work and previous uni experience have given me enough knowledge to at least struggle less with the subject. Foreign exchange (the paper I just sat for) took a while but was interesting to learn and know.

Been missing a few days from celebrating birthdays, watching Asian movies and testing out World of Warcraft. Caved in to temptation and bought a $2 trial version of WoW that had 14 days to test the product out. So far, the experience is similar to Maple Story with fancier graphics (although that is a harsh comparison indeed). Heh, you basically run around killing creatures collecting stuff in the earlier bits of the game, which I’m at now, to complete quests and be given items. The pace is a bit slow so maybe the fun factor isn’t as great, although I must say these simple qualities can still make a game addictive. Will play a little more to figure out the game mechanics a tad.

Pre exam, I had to allocate time to study. With no restrictions on the type of activity now, I have to figure what activities to give priority to. At the immediate, the obvious thing is to go to work or I’ll be running real late. Heh.
