Exams suck

Wait, what? You failed, so you're getting out a year early?

I don't know what course it is that Yayniall is studying, but in my course (engineering) you have a 5 year Masters course and a 4 year Bachelors course. There is then a threshhold mark that you need to clear to go to the masters and otherwise go to the year shorter bachelors. I'd guess that this is what happened in this case, but could be horrendously wrong.
I'm going into my third year starting on Tuesday, and I can't wait to actually get going again, though I'll no doubt change my mind about that once the actual work starts again. Especially as it actually counts towards my final degree now.

--- End quote ---
You know what's kinda funny and weird. A few years ago my brother and I were driving through Colorado, and I mispoke and said 'that's so pants'. We joked about how that should be a legitimate phrase, and now, four years later, I hear you use this. I had no idea it was something people actually sad.
However, in our minds it was a positive thing, not a negative thing.
On the University thing... I'm back in Edinburgh, and I've moved into my flat and have most of my stuff, and in about two hours (after I nap because I just had a red-eye flight) I'm going to the student Union to go drink with friends.
oh yeah.
My lego x-wing broke in my luggage though, and I don't have the manual to put it back together.
Yayniall:
Yeah, busted down to Bsc for not slavishly learning proofs.
That's my excuse for poor revision anyway.
Saved myself 3 grand.
Allybee:
man I hate being in a dorm full of people who are getting sick or already are sick. most of these people are really selfish, too. seriously, I was making ramen for a friend who was really ill, and someone swiped a piece of it to eat before it was cooked. it was for a sick girl. jeez.
Drill King:
My school had a really bad flu/cold going around last week and mine won't go away. My throat is full of razorblades. Since my school is so small and we're constantly around each other for like 12 hours of the day(even out of dorms), not to mention very huggy/affectionate, basically so far if one person gets sick it takes less than two days for the rest of the school to get it.
