No clothes can communicate my muted feelings at the moment- I have a mid semester exam tomorrow which I effectively forgot about because of all my Biology essays and reports and now I just want to melt into a landscape and hide in plain sight. I looked at my other marks and I'm on track to get a high distinction average overall and maybe be considered for a prestigious unit taken during next Summer in New Zealand but that's just it. I'm afraid I'm going to mess it all up and then I'll give up on the unit in general. I'm normally red hot and raring to prove myself but I guess I spent so much energy on my essays and written reports I forgot I had a three hour mapping test due after the holiday break. I've screwed up quite considerably by my own very high standards. Not that you can really prepare for a mapping task, because practice in itself is no use without any exercises to see what an ideal answer is. This is my last week of having structural geology and then we are moving on to sedimentology and I will feel less hopeless, less horrible and maybe more inclined to read about the processes I'm sure to be quizzed on for the final exam.
Sorry about the academic whinging, it's not very classy but gosh I feel a whole lot better without all that riding on my shoulders. Wish me luck for tomorrow in which I'll drown my sorrows in ice-cream after the whole thing is over.
