The 'have a moan' thread

[MarMar]

It started last night, and I slept poorly... I'm getting a migraine

[claire_louise]

Yeah, Daza, that's right. I don't know what the actual word prelim means but I just know that here, at least, it's the word used for mock exams. We're told that the reason for them is so that we can get used to the way the exams are set out. We have past papers for that though. Teachers are dumb. 

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I think the main reason for mocks is so you know what it's going to be like actually sitting your exams in those conditions, rather than just doing practise papers in your classroom. They're helpful but they suck.

I'm moaning because I have to post off an assignment for uni today and my printer cartridge has just run out of black ink! Arghhh!!

PS. Prelim is short for preliminary, as in before the actual event.

Can't you e-mail your assignment claire_louise? At my uni they sometimes perfer that you e-mail it so it is easier to check if you have plagiarised any of it. But doesn't that always happen? You always seem to run out of computer ink when you need it most. Or the only time you forget to take an extra pen to the exam it runs out of ink...

Thanks Claire, I never knew that, lol!

Yeah, prelims/mocks/whatever! lol, are very useful and, in a way, I'm glad we have them (don't tell my teachers though!) but they still absolutely suck. Especially when they've been brought forward by about a month! It means I'll need to study for my prelims over the Christmas break and do the homework set for then!

There is now officially a new disability - "impatientitis, a condition requiring you to sit in a wheelchair and skip the queue"

Now, you might not be able to walk, however that doesn't mean you skip in front of the line.

Lol, that's true. It's like the guy out of Little Britain!

HAVING A RANT!!!

Had a bit of Sh1t news just then...

In September we rented out our house to someone and today we have just found out this person has been sent to prison for fraud!!!

How sh1t is that - Wrong time of the year, it means now there's no money coming in from that place my parents will have to pay the rent until we find others to move in there.

I have told my parents to send my presents back as they have forked out aload for me this year... Material stuff does not bother me, it would mean more to me knowing they are financially secure!!! But it still is annoying!!!!

[Kimmy]

Aww thats really terrible We're also going through some financial problems and we have to sell our house because of it
