Well I'm glad it went well, although that is frustrating regarding the historical/current affairs stuff. To be honest I didn't realise the GAMSAT tested that kind of stuff. I thought it was all personality/science stuff (although I've never actually looked into it).

I did a good couple of hours study this morning but haven't done any work since lunch. Although I did play some soccer this arvo so I saw sunlight lol That's a positive. :p
There's the Humanities and Science sections, which are your typical "read the stimulus, answer the questions" style.

Then there's the Essay Section. It has its own paragraph as the focus of all of my loathing from the past couple of months. Two unseen topics for which you have to produce a perfect essay response in 30 mins. Hence the preparation with current affairs so that I would have some sort of example to support my arguments.

All the best for your results, jetblack.

On a side-note, I'm thinking about staying back at uni late nearly every day to study. I will spend so much more money (food etc) but money is temporary... marks are not.

On top of things, but I like to study ahead so I have time to read up on other topics not really taught at Uni (or perhaps taught later on during the year(s) )

On god. In three years of uni, I've -never- been on top of things. :(

They want me to lead a TSP project in geosciences on hydropower when I didn't put down geosciences as my preferred area :/

Spot the blue suede is not a game :(

Haha I actually saw you walk into Fischer library this afternoon from the tiny window (I could recognise your jeans).

Jono, you still at uni?
Nah, I left around 8:30pm today because I was studying with a couple other friends and they felt like leaving.

Perhaps tomorrow I will be there till late again.

can i come?
Sure thing! Company is always good. Even though I probably won't talk much, so apologies in advance if I am a dull study-buddy.

When I'm in 'hardcore mode', I slap on my headphones, blast some dubstep (love the wubwubwub) and tank through the textbook.
