updates ....

Some time has passed since my last post. Since then I've finished my finals and already have four end of semester exam results out :) I got some unexpected marks, I thought I would barely pass both the Riverine Civilisations and Ancient Israel credits, but on the contrary, I did quite well :) I also got an A for my Documentation and Illustration Techniques credit :) I'm really proud of myself for that. Click below to check them out :)



Another section of the credit required that we take several photos to depict archaeological artifacts or sites. In due course I will upload some of the ones that were handed in.

Now I just have to wait for the results of my finals ... I really do hope that I've done well in those as well *fingers crossed*

Excavations have started, and the first week has already passed, another week to go and the second season of excavations at Zejtun will be over :/ But there is always the third season at Ghar ix-Xih awaiting :) I will be uploading the excavation photos shortly on esnips as well, so if you're interested keep an eye on this blog :) But for now you can check out last year's excavations at Zejtun:



I guess that's all for now :D
Take care and enjoy your summer

6hrs to go ....

It's 04:04 in the morning, and I'm still up and about in this unsaintly hour!! In 6.30hrs I have my first final, and I feel as if I know nothing at all!! :( I'm not still awake because I'm panic stricken, I've passed that phase many hours ago, but I have heartburn (guess that meat pie wasn't such a good idea after all :/), and I feel that I should try to cram in as much information as possible once I can. I feel that I have to be reallyyyyy lucky to pass this exam. I can't remember any dates, or names. I only have a vague idea of things ... so much for spending all those days stuck to my desk studying. Well, I guess we'll have to see in a few hours time. I just hope that I'll at least garner 45marks, that way I won't have to worry about a resit ... at least for this exam!!!

Well I'm off to peruse the rest of the past papers and try to work out some of the answers. And then I'll surely be looking forward to 14:00 to have a good rest, maybe even give up the driving lesson.

(as for the picture below, I couldn't find anything close enough to how I feel right now, there are no pictures of people banging their heads against their desks or screaming their head off against a pillow ... or maybe they haven't reached the state I'm in!!)

almost 24hrs away from my first final .....

Well, I have nothing in particular to say. It's just that I'm almost 24hrs away from my first final and I felt that I should write it here ... or maybe it's just escapism because I'm terrified of this exam and have no idea where to start :/

Well .... I'm off to cram my mind with stupid information which (hopefully) I will find useful tomorrow.

Cheerio!!!
