Side effects of the HSC - afffects your abillity to... thing...

Now I have recently found that due to the pressures of 3 hour examinations, and studying for extended periods of time, that my capacity to remember things has been diminished somewhat. Those of you who know me well enough, can vouch for the fact that I like to use slightly large words in my everyday speech. For instance, vanacular. But recently, with 6 or 7 HSC exams done, I have found that i can't remember words and events that happened this past year. Now the "not remembering things from this past year" seems pretty normal, but the word thing is bugging me because I've had trouble remembering words like "Arson" which, due to the start of the bushfire season, have been popping up on the news everytime a fire is extinguished.
This troubles me somewhat.
More evidence for this can be seen when I go on msn and chat with my pals. In a conversation with Mari, we tried to remember what the prefects had done this past year, and we really couldn't remember most of it.

anyway here's to hoping its just a phase and im not really loosing my mind

Yo yo yo, great to see your blog back in full swing! Mine too, is also back up and running as of this week, and i'm sure you still know the address so I won't steal this comment space for a shameless plug for my website which goes by the name of deputydan.skyblog.com , because that would just be WRONG of me.

also, you should have your 18th in early december and do something dancy and with a good socialising vibe methinks. then i can a) come, b) help you plan it!

now keep this blog happening and i'll keep reading it, and come on mine in return!

how funny, today's french continuers reading and responding passage 1 was all about teenage blogging. i totally disagreed with what it had to say incidentally.

oh yes, last exam tomorrow, the 2 hour french extension paper :D

peace
