One more to go tomorrow. The EC Law exam today went rather well, although I have misplaced my EC Statute Book which hurt me in the first question. Thankfully the other two topics on which I answered questions, were sufficiently drilled into my head so I didn't need an extra reminder of article numbers.
I don't have a statute book for my exam tomorrow either (annoyingly) so I'll probably print out the relevant statutes tonight. I'm so far good to go on one topic and have an amber light on one other. The 3rd topic I'll be taking the question on I've yet to go over again (two immediately consecutive exams don't give you a lot of time to revise).
I am however happy to report that the exam tomorrow will be the last of this term, and that after I've completed it I shall be free of the burdens of academia until next October.
Interestingly, it transpired that Tunde, who I talk to often when I'm at university - is in fact a poet, of some considerable talent. He's won a great variety of competitions and his work is available for reading on poetry.com. His full name is Tunde Okewale and you can search for the poems he has published on the site - apparently a few made it into their anthologies.
I also managed to read some of my Aunt's poetry, which I remembered she had posted there. It seems a little weird to be reading her thoughts and feelings when it has so often been the reverse (she found this blog by mistake last year). I shan't link to them as they're probably quite private (as private as they can be when posted online) but its nice to read, if only to better understand her. Particularly since, when I was born she was younger than I am now. She's such a lovely person - although I have no doubt that she no longer reads this page, I speak little of myself these days amongst punditry and exams.
Right. Time for sleep, that I might wake up early and continue the revision for my last exam tomorrow (ambivalence!)
Later
John
