OMG did you hack the timetable or something? :shock:

In regards to Skyrim; I really wanted to get it, good thing I didn't :tongue:

EDIT: Just noticed: You do Mathematics with Languages :tongue:. BTW you should definitely revise Analysis. It's quite interesting :tongue:.

Maths with modern languages :sexface: No Applied; I do German instead. But I do have to write a 1400 word essay. I don't even know 1400 words in English, let alone in German :emo:

I am definitely revising Analysis now. If only in hope of not disappointing Wendl when it comes to it :tongue: Likewise Algebra. Methods isn't really going to get much work done on it, on grounds that it's really just STEP, and... after all, I was so spectacularly good at STEP... :rolleyes: :teehee:

Pff, revision. There are temples to Plunder!

Hmm... should probably start Revising. Came back up to Landan (partly) because I knew it wasn't gonna happen back home.

I had no idea you could do maths with modern languages. Do you do a year abroad?

You can :biggrin: There's only 5 people on the degree though.

And sadly not. You can apply for one in the usual way through ERASMUS, which I fully plan to do, but there isn't one built-in.

I just seem to spend all my time stealing horses :biggrin:

You're already back in Landaaaan? Jealous. I return on Friday. So excited :moon:

Ooohhhh...I did German.....in years 7 and 8 :tongue:

Analysis is pretty awesome isn't it? Even though I fail at it, I love little tricks you have to do :sogood:. Algebra is much easier than I first expected. Methods is a hard exam (I had a look at a few past papers :shock:). And applied, well, let's not talk about it :lol:.

I am SO BAD at analysis, but I would love it to bits if I was actually any good at it. As it is, I just suck at coming up with ideas by myself :tongue: Algebra is actually quite easy once you get around Johnson's lecturing style, and Methods... did you do STEP? It is pretty much identical. I can manage Methods because it's basically like STEP, but I won't even lie, this is going to be a nasty exam. As for applied, I neatly sidestep it :biggrin:

Yeah same here. I just don't know where the hell to start for proofs, (There's literally a million ways to do a proof :tongue:) and always end up taking the long-winded way which I get close, but end up failing :cry2:

Algebra, I reckon, will be the easiest of the lot. I looked through a paper and it all looked very similar to the homework Qs.

I did STEP I and got a 3 (:colondollar:). Although I didn't put much effort into it :teehee:. I honestly thought I was going to get a U :lol:

You're lucky you sidesteped it tbh. Very annoying module. lol.

I'm going to have to relearn the entirety of Algebra, after looking at a paper...
Analysis and Applied - meh.
Methods is getting parred.

I actually bought a horse, like, in exchange for money. And a house, coz of all the ****ing Dragon Bones. The horse is ****ing mental; it just Leeroys into things I'm trying to sneak up on, or runs off to fight some bears; dun't care about the horse, but they 1000 gold each.
Gotta say, dungeon crawling has been probably my favourite thing to do in the game, largely because of the regularity with which I accidentally stumble across an epic quest or other.

Back in Landan! (fer a few days now). Flat was empty for a while, but a bunch of people came here for the new years (and left again, so I'm alone here again for another 2 days >.>). Ah well; more fun than back home <.< (Plus, I don't have to feel guilty about getting take away rather than trying to cook. There is a downside to having so many enthusiastic chefs in your flat)

Coming back tomorrow to start an essay. Really don't want to.

Analysis is already going to be a massive fail for me so I don't even know if I can remedy that, Algebra is all content and no actual difficulty in applying it (... I hope I don't regret this statement in a week's time :colondollar:) and Methods is giving me STEP flashbacks. :eek3: These exams may not go fabulously.

I adore dungeons. And, at the moment, killing things. I'm only like level 4 (I got it on Sunday, so that's not so bad :tongue:) but the combat is so stunningly better than Morrowind's that I just seem to go around hacking stuff to death with an axe. And occasionally stealing things and then wishing the game would let you sell stolen goods to all merchants. :emo:

I adore being alone in my flat. I've annexed the entire fridge and stolen little bits of everyone else's food :ahee: (It's to get them back for the time they stole my Innocent smoothie. I'm not just a dick.) Jealous of your takeaway though. I'm living on Sainsbury's Basics, because I had a trip up to good old Max Rayne yesterday, and on the way home I thought I'd drop by Sainsbury's and get some cheap food :yep:

(Congratulations on the girlfriend :awesome:)

Well, personally, I've avoided worrying about exams and revision through one simple method; ignoring them entirely : D

Yeah, thievin' stuff is fun, though the Thieves Guild quest only gives you 3 fences (plus, they're pretty ****ing retarded); you're better off leveling Speech (check out the speech perks; can make everyone a fence)

I got the game on the 11th, and I have the level 5 achievement on that day, level 10 achievement on the 12th, and the level 25 achievement on the 14th; and that's still less playtime over that period of time than I played for FO: New Vegas >.<

I may be able to, at most, splash out on Sainsbury's Basics next term, since I'm still having trouble with Student Finance. 'specially considering my new years resolution: to drink more :ahee: (that and do at least SOME revision for my mid-sessionals)
