.::. Exam Aftermath .::.

A tad late for this. Exams ended last Thursday, and we had 3 days break before starting 2 new electives this Monday. 7 weeks, 5 reports and 2 exams are finally over! We spent 2 days around Copenhagen, Hillrod and Helsingor and visiting castles. I loved Fredriksborg Castle! It's really irritating that it turns dark at 4pm and you really can't do much sightseeing.



This is our exam hall. It's very much like what we've been used too. But the great thing is that, FOOD is allowed!! Any food actually, and I think it's kinda cool that it's the first time I get to actually bring food into exams! The exams are 4 hours long (used to be 5 hours)!!! The papers are relatively short and straight-forward (like 5 questions worth 10 marks each) and 4 hours is way too long. I'm not used to such exams because all my life, we always have to write really quick and fight for time which have never been enough. I always thought I had a slight advantage because I tend to write and think fast, but no more advantage this time round and I can't seem to make myself slow down. I reckon writing really quickly help me to keep my flow of thoughts and arguments.

I brought potato salad and some choclate the first day. Dark chocolate was really good though I barely ate my potato salad. It's weird, stopping mid-way to eat. There's this chinese guy who brought one big bag of groceries and the invigilator was shocked to realized that it was all FOOD.

Fallen leaves are everywhere now. As much as I think boots are pretty and I've a very legitimate reason to wear them now (boots really do keep your legs warm), I find it rather uncomfortable, especially when you have to sit down for long periods of time. It's getting so cold that my toes goes somewhat numb at times. In fact, my feet, and lips too.

On the last day of our exam, it was a rare sunny day with blue skies. 5 hours or so of sun.

Autumn is almost over, leaves are all falling off trees and being swept away.

I've started 2 new modules, and exams seems like a long time ago. The two electives I chose this term was relatively 'softer' and more interesting subjects - Corporate Social Responsibility and Management Consulting. CSR is rather a strength here I reckon. But it's quite demanding, having to finish the whole textbook and many articles in 2 weeks since exams are on 27th, not to mention 2 group reports and a 30minute presentation and defending our report. Still, these 2 lecturers seem alot more fun and I think I'll enjoy the lessons somewhat. =)

Our landlord decided to get us beds!! It's those foldable kind, but it's still a bed, for free. So yea, it's a good thing.
