2 down, 1 to go

My first two exams went alright. The second one, Commodity Markets, was probably better than I would have had any right to expect and I think (hope) I’ve done better than I really deserved to, so that’s nice. Goes some way to making up for the vast majority of exams which I knew I deserved to do better in! One left: Econometrics on Saturday. Really not looking forward to that one!

Countdown…

It’s the last week of holidays and I’ve got 3 exams next week to revise for which is a pain. My computer is having massive issues and I’m about to have to format it and start again which is also somewhat inconvenient and to add to that my phone has pretty much stopped working. I hope next week works out better!

Fail.

Oh dear. Today will be brilliant because I have to go and see my tutor and my accademic supervisor to explain why I failed to submit any work for one of my modules. This will be about as much fun as trying to eat a live duck with chopsticks.

Chez moi

A little picture of my room in my house which I’m renting with 5 other friends from Uni. Notice how tidy it is? This is because I have ridiculous priorities which will ultimately lead to Fail in most respects. Second photo added to demonstrate that my room isn’t as box-ish as it might have appeared – it’s really oddly long and thin.

Life, the University and everything

I am doing a degree in Economics and Finance at the University of York in the UK. It remains unclear whether this will result in some form of gainful employment…ever. I massively failed to secure an internship for this summer which is a bit of a shame but I’m sure it isn’t the be-all and end-all. Actually in fairness, the whole graduate scheme is looking a tad sketchy as I’m not massively convinced I’m 2.1 material and I’ve not really worked out what that means if I do in fact graduate. Or if I don’t – it’s a bridge that will be crossed when necessity mothers some future invention. Anyway, I just had a macroeconomics test and I think it went alright so that’s mildly encouraging. Oooh-rah.
