Hahah "post-modern Jabba the Hut". What a genius phrase.
It's not true though, Rob! :smile:

Pfft to you! I so am like Jabba the Hutt.

Though at least I'm beautiful on the inside, and have three shiney gems :biggrin:

Jabba the Hutt was rich, powerful, and had many slave women. I would kill to be like that

He also had a creature aide known popularly as 'The Womb'.

Sgt. Pepper is such a good album. Until you get to that crazy George Harrisson track, I always skip it.
Wonder if I can get through all my Beatles albums today... 12 Cds worth....

My MP3 player died. :frown:

In other news, I went to a training session for a summer job I'm hoping to get yesterday and ChrisH29248305r90riefnsakvbg was there. Only I didn't realise it was him for ages until we had to get up and present ourselves!
Sorry I didn't say hi!

There's a guy sitting next to me on the library computer room, and he's talking to himself and it's scaring me. :afraid:

I am in such a bad mood.

Arsenal lost tonight, and it was such a shame... but the worst of it is, I failed my chemistry exam today...

It's just, I do like complaining and people will think it's gratuitous because I always complain about things... but I'm so sad about how it went...

I stayed up till 4 revising, got up at 8, didn't feel too rough. I worked my arse off until 12.30, had a quiet lunch... and it all seemed to be coming together for me... Then went to the exam, the format of said exam had changed dramatically, and the content was skewed very much so. I was planning to score about 6/10 marks by answering questions to an ish extent here and there... but when there are 5 20 markers, and a subsection is worth 10 marks for something you've never heard of... Jesus, it's just the worst feeling ever.

And it's totally unblaggable. Just irritates me so much, random exams like that completely make an argument for not bothering to revise - just makes me lose faith in the system when people's efforts (today my own) go fully to waste...

*hugs* robbie!!

me and the other economists have all written off our exam for tomorrow as a potential fail

I'm just such a stupid complainer. Right now I should pick myself up and say **** em'. It was just, so awful... It's actually starting to get blocked out *wisely* by my brain... the part that hasn't turned to mush.

I still hope you pass Alex, I'm not evil enough to hope others fail.. I just am so good at complaining, and I always whine about things... Eventually people will just stop listening!

Perish the thought - because the crap I come out with is verbal gold :rolleyes:

Reply 3095

Hehe - i only want people doing my subject who arent my friends to fail :smile:

Reply 3096

You're so thoughtful.

Hopefully with your well wishes, I will not fail..

Though it would be shocking if I did, given the modest task of needing 26% in my Chemistry exams. Though today I got about 15. Ugly.

exams always tend to go better than you think. You just have to try and put it out of your mind now and concentrate on the next one. Difficult thing to do i know but you have to try
