    Study leave - Why do they do it to us!!

    Got this week on to start revising of my exams, first ones on friday. And ow look its a really nice day today.

    Whats with the goverment, they put exams in summer. ARR! I want to go outside. But must revise, and its so dull. My fist exams in englsih lit. Which is a nasty one to revisie for IMO. Theres a choise of planing essays, doing essays or reading essays.

    *sigh*

    Any one else revising?

    Hehehe, I love threads like this. Just wait till you have to work and you're stuck inside the office when it's a lovely day outside. You get no "summer holiday's" too!

    lol...
    I've worked over here for 10 years, and miss my old company, where days like this demand a bbq on the "aloha deck" - as the chief engineer, I also determined if and when things were broken, so nothing EVER disturbed bbq time!

    revise outside ffs.. what is stopping you? i did all my revision for summer exams sat outside in the park/back garden, with a nice ice cold 'skol' next to me..

    and before anyone mentions, i know skol is weak as p*ss, however it still tastes alright, which means you can drink it all day whilst revising and still be sobre enough to revise. and its cheap too

    To rights. Working all the time, stuck inside and its warm as hell outside and you see all the students in the pubs whilst you are strolling back to work, you think you have it hard with exams in the summer atleast you get july - september off Not to mention the 2 - 4 week holidays you get for Christmas Half Terms etc etc.
