Exams Over, Holidays Begin

Yup, finally the exams are over. Hope I clear all of them. Especially Systems which I stayed up till 2.30 am to study for it and woke up at 6.30am on the day of the exam just to try and revise more in the hope of passing it. That must have been the least amount I ever slept on this exchange programme, since usually I get my 7 hours of sleep daily. But that's all inconsequential now since it's over. I still remember the day before the paper, the whole lab(civil suite) was filled with people studying systems. Suddenly the professor appeared and everyone swarmed around him asking him questions and hoping for some hints which he refused to divulge. There must have been like 40 of us surrounding the poor guy who was sitting at the table.

The past few days have seen the hall population dwindle to less than half the original number since many of the hostelites have gone home, some as early as last saturday!

Probably spend the last few days catching up with the new-found friends over a meal and bidding farewell to them. It's been good times really.

Plans for the remaining few days are probably to head into the mountains to learn skiiing/snowboarding although it's really really expensive. And hoping for some falling snow man. (Note to those in Christchurch: If you see snow, call me or wake me up at any time and with any method!) I hope it snows when we are on the mountains.

And also of note, Binjuan has flown down from auckland to spend time with us here in christchurch. We'll definitely have loads of fun.
