    I certainly don't feel like I'm smashing it, I'm so unprepared for my test! Then I have 4 assignments due in before the end of the month, what have I signed myself up for?!

  • The best of luck with your exam! Honestly when uni work gets on top of me I get so close to giving up! Then I look at my DD and remind myself as to why I'm doing it all and that giving up is not an option! That and the amount of student loan debt I've already racked up :o I'm sure you'll do great and maybe treat yourself to a nice coffee, cake or a cheap bottle of wine to celebrate and de-stress after your exam :j
