Exam Traditions..?

So, I haven't blogged in a while again. lol.

This was because of my final exam for this semester and the subsequent period of relaxation. I don't even actually remember what I did. I think I mainly just watched television with my brother and I set up tmy tree inn my room although really there's no room for it. lol. (Even more like animal crossing. lol "anymore and the floor will give in!" lol)

Anyways, after cramming the second half of 'Cell Physiology and Biochemistry' into one day it was an okay exam I guess. Am I ever thankful that Mr. GG taught us so well back in grade 12..? Yeah! Duh. The exam was a lot about glycolysis and the Krebs cycle as well as some other stuff, but learning that stuff again was easier than the rest of the stuff I had to learn. xP

So, ya, one thing I have been doing since last year is that when it is exam time I wear my Carleton Science shirt to all of my exams without washing it until they are all done. lol. No superstition or anything though, I just get caught up in patterns / traditions. xP. Like, I think it was a coincidence the first time I did that, but then I was like, okay, let's keep doing this. So, every single exam I write at Carleton will be while wearing my weird baby blue Carleton shirt that has stretched significantly while in East Asia and has a hole at the back. lol >.>

Since grade 12 when  my English teacher told us that dark chocolate was good for your brain and that you should have some before your exam, I tried to get into a tradition of eating chocolate before the exams. That didn't work out. Too expensive. lol

Usually during exam breaks I end up watching an old series of anime to take up all the free time I've suddenly run into. Not this time. lol. I actually kinda figured out how to study during this exam break. I just read my whole textbook while making notes, then review the lecture slides like morning of, then read my notes. I did that for each of the exams I had this semester. But for BIOC the text was like 500 pages and the slides were like 2000 slides ... >.> He really did cover a lot of material in a very short amount of time. lol My brain crashed on Tuesday morning.

Ya, but really the better side of these exam traditions is that before every exam I pray. lol. I know that it wouldn't be by my knowledge that I somehow do well. I usually cram the last second. I don't deserve a good mark. I didn't really put that much effort in except at the last second.

Ya, so it's done and I get a fresh start for next semester. xP

As I had planned to, I put up my Christmas tree which I bought two years ago and as it goes, it seems that you guys, my blog stalkers, get to see pictures before my facebook friends. So, here is what my tree looked like when I plugged it in.

More later.
