New Leaves for this week

There are none. I have had exams. This is a valid excuse.
No its not. I've had one exam. I spent the night before watching lolcats and texting people to tell them i loved them.

I also worked out that in my young life, I have sat more than 100 exams. Assuming each exam is about 2 hours long, thats a significant portion of time to be sat at a freezing cold desk reciting things you will forget a few hours later. Because that is all they are, memory tests, and thats why I am really good at them.

My new leaf for this week then, is not stressing over exams or coursework, because most of the time, someone other than your own temperamental memory, your pride, or that sickly devil who sits in your stomach singing songs about failiure and ingratitude, deserves your attention more.

First stop for new london leaf: Wellcome collection exhibition. It sounds fascinating. I have spent too years walking past the photograph of a giant armpit in a rush for piano lessons, and now I am going to go and see what its all about. I might even join the club. You get free coffee. There is good in the world.
