First exam this morning went really well. The multiple choice wasn't impossible (They have a habit of being so incredibley specific that you just have to hope to luck out and get something you remember perfectly) and the essay question they asked was the one I wanted. Plus I had a really long time for the essay, as the multiple chioce didn't take as long as I thought, which was good as I could think and do it slowly.

Got the results from the percertion test last week too. 64%. 6% lower than I should be getting (70% is a first) but still well above the grade needed to pass, and its only worth 10% of one module, 1.25% of the year, so that 6% actually becomes... 0.06%? or 0.6%? Either way a tiny amount that will have no effect by the end of the year. (Its must be closer to 0.06% actually.... there we go, 0.075%. Tiny was what I was getting at!)

Paid the deposit for conservation school! Ack, makes me want to go now. Read over my travelling blog last night too, so I dreamt of VMF all night. It was very dissapointing to wake up to my alarm not telling me to go monitoring, but to go take an exam! Ah well, if all goes to plan I'll be back there in...22 weeks! (Although how I am going to manage to leave again I don't know... I've booked the school afterwards in the hope that I'll get excited over that instead!)

64% is awesome! And stop worrying about the 6%, especially if it works out at 0.075% *rolls eyes at you* I don't think that amount is going to end up causing you too many problems.

(and will I get shouted at if I point out that you don't HAVE to get a first. It is perfectly acceptable to pass no matter what level you pass at. We'll just pretend that I never obsess over marks and grades okay?)

You're going to leave VMF again afterwards because otherwise I'm going to have to come and drag you back. And you don't want to make me have to do that.

Oh I tried to phone you the other night but my phone kept saying unable to dial. Seriously after breaking the DVD player as well the other day (I did fix it) I think I may be cursed. I'm out this evening and all day tomorrow but I shall try and call you later this week.

I really do need a first, given as this is kinda the last step before actualy work! (Shhh, I know this year doesn't actually count towards my final mark) And I convinced myself not to worry about it didn't I? See, I am improving!

LOL, ummm, telling me you'll come to South Africa with me is not going to convince me to come home, I'd just introduce you to all the monkeys then you'd stay too!
