So I didn't win the Weakest Link. I was voted off fourth, so at least I wasn't first off, but I'm really annoyed with myself for getting these three questions wrong ( Read more... )

So today is the day that sees me go and film an episode of The Weakest Link. I just hope I don't get voted off first!

Bed time now, need to get my sleep! I wonder if Tobias has blogged today.

How good does this feel? Very! I am now officially a graduand. Superb. I have nothing to do until Graduation except socialise. What a hard life I am now leading! Today, for example, I met Scott when he finished his finals at 12 (along with Andy), then went for lunch and a couple of drinks, then met Rachael when she finished her finals at 4.30, went ( Read more... )

So here we are. The finishing straight, the final furlong, the last lap before the chequered flag, the dying seconds before the hooter sounds and the ball is kicked off the park. In just over 4 hours, I will have finished my undergraduate degree! What an amazing yet scary thought.

I have decided, in the same fashion as Tobias did, to blog before ( Read more... )

So I didn't update yesterday - my apologies for that. I had a busy afternoon/evening, what with watching the Lions put in a less than convincing performance in their first tour match, before bombing down to London on the train for the engagement party ( Read more... )

Well, I'm now 75% of the way through my finals! And starting to feel pretty good about that. This morning's exam went OK I think, the questions were OK and I had stuff to write which I think/hope was relevant, so we'll just have to wait and see. So now it's just 'Disputed Questions in the Christian Tradition' on Monday afternoon, and then I'm done ( Read more... )

40 days gone, but I'm not out of the wilderness quite yet! However, there isn't long to go now and I can honestly (and unsurprisingly) say that I can't wait to finish ( Read more... )

Thank you to everyone who prayed for me and/or thought of me this morning! I'm grateful for that, and also grateful that the questions were OK and I think I did myself justice as much as possible in an exam; it's also gratifying when people walk out having had the same experience as you, namely finding the latter essay questions harder than the ( Read more... )

I am more nervous than I have ever been before an exam! So please please please keep praying for wisdom, a steady hand, a steady mind, and vast amounts of memory and recall!

Thank you.

And congratulations to Tobias for finishing his degree! And Jen as well, of course!

It is with trepidation that I write this slightly late blog, knowing that when I wake up in the morning I will have one more day of revision before I sit one of my finals! Tomorrow I am going to immerse myself in primary texts all morning to make sure that I have my understandings of them correct, and to try to memorize some quotations, and then it ( Read more... )
