May. 29th, 2006 11:05 amSorry, Ji, my computer shuts itself down automatically at 7am and I couldn't work up the energy to turn it back on. *sigh*
Right now I'm in the I'm-a-stupid-moron world of pain. Though, honestly, I doubt it's as bad as I deserve. My spine hurts, my internal organs hurt, my eyes hurt, and my throat and right ear hurt because I'm coming down with something, but they've all hurt worse before. I'm particularly relieved not to be sicker than I am, after only 2 hours sleep. (Which mostly wasn't sleep, anyway.)
I finish class today at 5. This is my last week of classes before the exam. Still, I think I may ditch my last double and go home at 3. I'm just not motivated enough. I don't think I could take two hours of APL, even this close to the exam. It's on tape.
I'll probably never listen to it or take notes even if I do, but at least it's there. Just in case I DO.
The thing is, I'm wondering how much I can really be bothered for the law exams this semester. Is it worth putting all that time and stress into summary sheets and practice papers? My marks seem to be getting consecutively worse, aside from the Contracts exam last semester. If you take the essays and problems as separate, I have consistently got a lower mark on every assignment; the problems have gone 80, 76, 65, and the essays have gone 63 and 60.
I got my criminal law back this morning. It was the 65. 30%, non-redeemable. I thought I had a better idea of the law. Of course, what's also annoying is that I know I could have done a better job on it-- on the APL, too-- if I hadn't been depressed when I'd gotten it. But I didn't go see anyone about it, have no documentation, etc, so it's not like I can apply for special consideration. Anyway, I know from experience they're less likely to do anything about it if you weren't just under the line for the next grade up, and I was nowhere near a distinction.
That's the one plus side to being this ridiculously tired. While I still cried a little, it was more an automatic response than anything else. I'm disappointed and I'm sure it'll hurt like a bitch later, but right now I'm just too exhausted to even care.
Jelly spiiiiiiiine. ow.
