Stress and writing progress

[selenay]

Normally I'd be slamming the books shut and declaring myself revised out. Unfortunately this year I have an afternoon exam so I'll probably find time to cram notes tomorrow morning. Guh. This is why I hate afternoon exams :-( So for now, I'm revised out for the day and am preparing for a de-stress evening. Normally (again), this would involve renting a popcorn movie for the evening to take my mind completely off exams. But this year my sister is living here and she doesn't share my love of insane disaster movies, so another tradition bites the dust. I'll see whether sis will let me watch SG and Atlantis, but video them anyway just in case. And then I'll have an early night because I've been tired all day. It may be a bad idea to need a nap during an exam.

Revision was slow and dull, so I took breaks during the day and wrote when it got too much. Nope, not Inner Voices (must get my head back into that after the exam). But Mage Murders got added to, which is cool. I am currently in the middle of an autopsy scene (er, yes, it is fantasy, but...) and having fun because my view point character is feeling rather nauseous :-)

Words handwritten today: approx. 1,000
Total words handwritten: approx. 13,750
Words typed up today: None
Words typed up total: 1,976

I think I'm feeling intimidated by the prospect of re-writes, which is why I've typed up so little. Ack. After the exam...

Keep your fingers crossed :-)

Thanks, hon. I'm fairly sure that I passed (phew!), but what my grade will be is another question entirely. I'd like a good grade as insurance on getting a good degree classification, but I'm really just glad that it's over. Still got a lot of work to do for another course unfortunately...
