Post Exam-ness

Exams are now officially over. Just over a week of last-minute revision and panic has now come to an end, and (unfortunately), there is little else to do other than spend time with hallmates. So this post is devoted to our first day of freedom.

Tuesday, 12th June
Exam in the morning, Games & Decisions. Goes ok, could have been better. Probably made a mess of one of the questions but was generally ok. Finished just gone 11, headed back to Cryfield with Chris, and it seemed quite strange to think that I had no more work to do this term. Was also exhausted and collapsed on my bed for a little while with Gwen, until we heard the words "Rootes breakfast". Then we got up and ran (a little way, anyways) to Rootes social to eat said Rootes breakfast...As usual it was disappointing, but undoubtedly greasy.

Following this, we piled into Rupey's car (it was literally piled, four of us in the back....extremely safe/legal!) and headed off to Tesco to buy food/drink in general. I bought two multi-packs of Iced Gems...mmmm....along with other foody things. We then headed back to halls and hung out in the kitchen for a bit, until we went outside to go slack-lining and to generally laze about in the sun.

Slack-lining, is in fact quite fun. The guys have been doing it for a while now, and it's kind of remininiscent of the beam for me - although I am unable to get on the line without someone helping me. I'm also pretty unable to do much other than stand still at the moment as well....I'm sure with practise it would all be fine!! We spent the entire afternoon doing this, until the tutor/warden of Hurst asked us to move away from the finalists' area since they're still studying for exams apparently. So we headed in to get ready to going to Varsity, people from downstairs came with us too which was pretty cool. Had fish cakes, and a treacle pudding, but for some reason didn't eat much of either. Following the meal we headed across the road and hung out in a very grassy field for a bit, the guys played a bit of football and we just generally chatted etc.

We headed back to campus and spent a little time inside before going to sit outside again with people from downstairs and played Word Association of all things, I helped Gwen fetch her laundry (I was very restless!!) and then spent some time in Radhika's room, and Pete & Gwen joined us. That was about it really, had a fantastic day which was capped off with a fantastic night....needless to say I'm pretty tired now (such a wuss you see..). I slept late this morning, then went to Coventry to peruse possible pirate costumes with Pete, Sarah & Gwen. And I ate chips with Sarah. All in all, a good day!

Aaaah, now to continue with my lack of work (hurrah!) and the fun and frivolties of our last couple of weeks of term!

Until next time, cya!
