So today a friend and I realised that we have just over 20 (school) days until our end of year exams. The reaction we probably should have had? "Shit! Study! Study! Study freakishly hard so we can make up for the past year of not doing anything!"
My actual reaction? "Hey, that's kind of cool."
Not because I'm looking forward to exams, as such, because I'm not. But you see, exams mean the end of the year. Exams mean, like, two and a half months off or something like that. Exams mean a holiday where there is actually no homework at all that I have to do. Exams... exams are kind of awesome in that sense.
Besides, the ones last semester... I mean, they sucked, but they weren't really that bad.
I said this to my friend, and at first he looked at me like I was crazy, but then he caught on and we started talking about what we'd do to relax during exam week (and over the holidays) and... calculating how many hours of certain subjects we still had to sit through. Because that's not nerdy at all. (besides, we were in a subject we hate and suck at, so it was really just our way of putting off work while looking like we were busy. Instead of, y'know... studying for exams/ that test we have next week.)
And even besides that, when you're on exam weeks, you don't have to actually go to school unless you're going to exams. Now, let's calculate that. I have six (well, and a bit) exams. I have 10 days off school. No matter how that works out, I'm still going to have time to do whatever the hell I want (which will, of course, be sitting at home and studying...)
Yeah... exams are going to be awesome.
Did I just say that?
