I've seen enough animals for........... just a day
One down, two more to go!
Frankly, I think that the feeling of finishing an exam is blissful enough to become addictive! But I guess that depends on one's expectations of performance as well. Considering I spent a few hours yesterday getting hooked on a "few" episodes of Fullmetal Alchemist, I really don't deserve this sense of satisfaction and happiness that I'm getting now.
But oh well, that's over and done with for now! Looking back I'm really glad that somehow we were given a breed recognition test for the animals that we've been studying... it was stressful while studying for it and thinking "wait a minute, doesn't that breed of sheep look exactly like this one, but they're DIFFERENT??" but when you've stared at it long enough, something new catches your attention and soon everything falls into place. Kinda. For our breed recognition test today we were flashed slides of different breeds of sheep, cows, pigs, cats, dogs, goats, all for a minute each and then we had to write our answers down in our exam sheet. There's no moving backwards so one chance was all we've got. I thought how well one performs for this sort of tests really depends on the main method of studying one uses. Those who study visually, of course, are the ones who will score for this part of the exam. Personally I'm still trying to discover which method works best for me. Secondary school material was alright for reciting over and over again out loud, but the amount in university for reciting will probably result in throat cancer!
Exactly one month from the day I step on the plane headed for home.....
