the lecturer ended up uploading a new lecture at around 11.30pm  on tues night (12 hrs after the one uploaded on 11am), exam was on friday...

i thought i had enough time to study for thera, with 12 days between my first and 2nd exam, then thera the day after optom med. for once i wasn't even super stressed in the lead up and on the day of the exam since i thought i new stuff. but gg. died in MC, felt like i guessed all but 2 questions. in the mid sem, i had a rough idea of how many i definitely knew, and the others i guessed and my mark turned out to be that mark of all the ones i knew (ie i have bad guessing skills). but for finals, since i was only confident in less than 5, well that pretty much equates to a fail. brain wasn't working either in the long response...there was more to write but i couldn't remember what to write...pls let me not fail too badly and get a 2nd chance with a supp. initially i was like i know enough not to get a supp, but after the exam, a completely different thought. supps for thera are orals, and it will probs feel like PBLs where i pretty much got hammered and questioned on everything i say. but 2nd chances are better than no chances, so going to enjoy the rest of the week before the supps comes out...

a week to study one test and i still can't be confident that i passed. couldn't even say i regret not studying harder, because that's probably the hardest i've studied for a test (felt like HSC where you had so much time to study for something, but uni obviously still more content). didn't even touch my phone for a week, after i realised during stuvac, a 5min break every hour is pretty much procrastinating for over an hour just on your phone in a day...

optom med is and probably will be the only exam which i didn't study for (well attended lecturesm but didn't memorise any content, and only look at stuff the night before the exam). it's all mainly on how we should manage different patients, but still couldn't get half the diagnoses...but fingers crossed i wrote something that's in their marking criteria and pass...

thinking that maybe i chose a bad year to fail. apparently once you get into 4th yr, you're stuck with a Bachelor, but for the year below us, when they graduate, they now get a Masters, which is a massive difference for roughly the same amount of work. did i fail a year too late..? can't even repeat 3rd yr (not that i want to since diseases were super interesting yet challenging at the same time...) i guess most of the grade is pretty bummed out we miss out on a Masters, but such is life...

ended up drinking my sorrows away at Marquee (even though I was super tired). it was a pretty fun night, and a different experience. best of all, it was freee. music there was pretty good as well.

partayy

light up foam sticks were pretty fun
