Category: Finding Myself – Adelaide

Gosh! Just finished my exam about 2 hours ago. It was the craziest exam I had ever had in my study life.

It’s a 2 1/2 hour exam, there’s so much to write. From what I heard, usually for postgrad exam, there’ll be 3 hours minimum but this subject doesn’t. Luckily I applied for time extension, a benefit international student can have, we’ll get extra time in exam. It was extra 25 minutes. At first I didn’t bother about asking for extension but since it’s a privilege to have, why not? It won’t cost me a thing, there’s nothing to loss. Good that I made this decision. So I had extra time on top of the 2 1/2 hours else definitely couldn’t finish answering.

The exam should be an easy one compare to the one coming Wednesday but I threw 10 marks away for one of the questions because I couldn’t make sense of what the question was asking. ARG! So I just crapped ;p

Was writing like crazy, non-stop. Didn’t have time to check my writing, hope I didn’t make serious language mistakes until the lecturer has difficulty understanding what I’m trying to convey. It’s not Malaysia, bad English can be forgiven for exam but not here for sure. Really salute those who managed to leave early. Either they didn’t know how to do or they could write so fast. Never in my life writing so fast. If it’s 3 hours(with extra 25 minutues for international student,that makes 3 hours and 25 minutes! That would make whole lot of difference), then at least won’t be that bad but I would still throw the 10 marks away. At least I could write nicely for other questions. It’s all because of Part B & C which were very BIG questions with HUGE mark allocation. Fricking 80 marks!

Kind of relief when I found out that there were many people who didn’t manage to finish answering the questions. At least I finished them. Who knows due to that, there’s some moderations to it by then and might able to increase my grade a bit hehehe…

That’s all for now. Will update again. Hungry…

WOW! Exam this Friday and coming Wednesday and one assignment due on Wednesday too.

Due the late upload of the assignment template from the lecturer, this is going to be my very first time doing last minute assignment. Sigh… If not for the template, my assignment is considered done as I had answered all the questions but the template actually asks for things that it didn’t ask in the question. So… Have to sort of redo the whole thing and do extra research right after the exam and it’s due in less than 10 hours! Need to restructure and add on with new research information for the 2000 words assignment. It’s already almost 2000 words and now need to add in new information, sure overshoot. At the end of the day, there’ll be lots of tweaking to do. So crazy…

I’m going to start a part-time job in July and another interview to go in July which was rescheduled because I couldn’t make it in June. Hopefully will get this job too. Better pay with an Australian corporate company based in NSW, it will surely make my resume look nicer even though it’s just a casual job rather than having being a waiter in a restaurant in Australia in the resume *LOL*

Gonna be very very busy after the exam with another project that I need to complete before August. Furthermore, I’m volunteering in the uni too and it will be time to welcome the new students which will mean extra job need to be done. Fully packed starting next month. Even the subjects I’ll be taking require a lot of work to be done. I can imagine how busy I am by then but I’ll survive. I’ll take the challenge 😉

Have to live everything to the fullest now, my time in Adelaide will be up really soon. No time for procrastination.

Oh! Just realized I haven’t submit my Borang B -.-” So many last minute things I have to do this month.

Anyway, will update again soon 😉
