summertime.

exams are always in summer. this year was the first year i've had proper exams in winter, i've only ever had mocks before and it was terrible. i got soaking wet in the rain before all my exams and had to sit in a hot and sweaty sports hall and try and guess at 100 multiple choice questions. i think it was 100, i'm pretty sure it was. maybe i should know this for my exam tomorrow? anyway. now it's summer, and its going to be the same hot and sweaty sports hall but with it being hot and sweaty outside as well. but there's the added problem of always wanting to be playing outside and sunbathing instead of working or doing exams. so, in conclusion, i am failing to decide which set of exams will be worse. i've done so much more work for these exams than i did in january, that if i don't do any better i'll be really annoyed, however, if i do loads better i'm hoping it will encourage me to do loads more work in my second year.

my first exam is tomorrow, it contains these topics:
animal cognition
sleep
biological psychology
psycopharmocology

i am not very confident about any of them because we have no past papers available, which i think is a bit unfair, surely it would help us if they at least put last years paper up on VITAL (virtual interactive learning at liverpool), but no, no multiple choice exams are made available, so we're all going into the exams unsure of what may come up.

gah.
