LPS

LPS = last paper syndrome.. nt vulgarities like lan pa s.. . watever.

ya, my 2nd last paper was on last sat, then the final paper on the 5th. a good 6 days to mug for the paper. too long, way too long. even tho i havent really study in depth yet.

over this exams i realised

1. 4 out of 5 modules for me are open book, further realised that my core modules for next yr are ALL open book too. gd and bad. gd is no memory work, bad is really thorough understanding & application.

2. red wine does to a certain extend boost memory capacity. ha, tried and tested. but muz be only in minute dosage, anyting more than a nutella glass is too potent already.

3. exam tips are very crucial. the 'tips' sesssion conducted by every lecturer is actually very informative. they contain loads of information regarding the final examinations qns. so form a study grp, analyze the qns, tips given, rather than solving some past yr qns together, unless the tips indicated that such things are coming out

4. i can have uninterrupted sleep on the eve of examinations. since yr1, i was having problems trying to snooze like a baby the night before exams, usually the brain is full of activities, like the formulas, the application etc. but for the past few papers i had this sem, i had been experiencing gd sleeping hrs. and naturally less stressed over the whole idea of exams. maybe the seattle air taught me hw to relax.

5. even during exams and experiencing exams stress u can still care and concern for people who meant smthing to u. heh, i think im a giver rather than a receiver. i wonder how those pple who received felt? and emotions still run full force even when exams are rd the corner, u can temp push them behind your mind, but u CANT stop thinking abt them. ya, i was thinking abt mud fighting chinaman. ha

6. i feel less horny during/after mugging. the stacks of notes and readings seems to hold your hormones in check and put them in hynoptize mode when you finish revision.

7. i play more we11 games than any other period combined. i shd change game soon, i have been playing since yr1, the pc version tho.

8. i visited gym/pool more than all the other sems combined. maybe it jus a personal achievement to lose wt after gaining at usa. ha, it doesnt hurt to look healthy anyway. and i 'loan' the membership card for guild hse, it proved to be an incentive as well.

9. i tend to imply far more issues that u ever imagine. save the details. =S

10. i tend to spend alot of $ - on luxury items like the 19" LCD monitor, PDA, clothes and accessories.

4 more days to a decent outing
