Australia is just about to head into final exams season at the moment, actually. It is my lady acquaintance's final semester of her undergraduate degree and I am cheerleading.

It's lucky you love stress! Geez, good luck!
I kind of miss uni too but I think what I actually miss is living at home for free and barely having to work-and also not really doing too much in the way of study- and as such having a lot of free time and disposable income on my hands to tool around and play drums and jack off and post on here. It was great!
Of course now I live out of home and if I went back to uni I would probably have to apply myself to my study in a pretty big way and also work a lot more to support myself so I do not think I would enjoy it as much. I guess what I am saying is being an adult sucks major wang. That is my lesson to all of you young people.

Oh you people who just started! The joy of pubcrawling on weekdays!
I can give only one advice, and that is:
Remember, there is a difference between studying and beeing a student! Studying requires just one activity, beeing a student also means you go forth and do crazy things you later look back on with your ex-classmates during fancy reunions and go "remember when..." Make sure you can look back on your time as a student with a huge smile on your face!
Drill King:
Man, I wish I had time to drink?
(What I am saying is that I have an insane amount of work and the idea of doing anything except occasionally sleeping and working and school is really foreign already)
I feel the need to clarify a little about my school, it doesn't do frosh week, if I miss more than one class without an excuse I am withdrawn from the course unless I get a successful appeal, etc etc etc. I feel like what you guys are describing is not like my school :c
StaedlerMars:
That's kinda harsh, what type of school do you go to?
Not to be rubbing salt into the wound or anything, but I think that last semester I went to class a total of about 10 times for all my five classes I had. I'm tagging the line of a First, so it's not like I'm slacking off, I just don't do very well in a classroom. Personally I think mandatory classes are bullshit. The average person doesn't have a very long attention span (not 50 minutes at least), and making them spend their time in class when they're more productive otherwise is a waste of everyone's time.
I'm making myself a promise (hah!) this year that I'm going to be spending at least an hour in the library each day reading over the lecture notes for all my classes that day.

An art school, also, 50 minutes? That is a class? My classes are all 4 and a half hours long what the hell
