I spent two and a half hours doing a Computing practice exam. I went away to wash the dishes and came back to a blank paper. I forgot to save — a cardinal sin for a programmer. It’s not too bad because the thought process was what mainly took up all the time, but of […] -
Week 7: Application Anxiety
Now playing: Doris Day – Que Sera Sera ↺ |◁ II ▷| ♡ I survived the shenanigans of Week 6 🥳!

2 down, 2 to go
Just finished my first exam of the season 😁 The auto marks in canvas were a measly 31.75 out of 120 and my first reaction at seeing them was flight mode – sell the car, pack up and move to Antarctica. But then, there was a shinning * in the end that said ‘some questions […] -
One down, three to go

SWOTVAC’s here… Yeah, stating the obvious 😒 My transition to office has been put on hold and I am working from home in regular office hours, no pay cuts or shift losses and with enough time for studies.

One test wonder
Yup, back to my ol’ 50% ways but turned out the marks will be corrected and there’s a chance I might have done better in this week’s test. Although my first thought on seeing the marks was, ‘The Low Marker’s Union Strikes Again’ 🤨 pun un-intended. I wasn’t the only one taking tests this week, […] -
Exam dates are out!

Over the moon
Got my first ever score of more than 60% in a test! Finally made it 🥳 Doesn’t matter if it counts for less than 5% in the finals or that it was a relatively easier test than the practice ones. Glad I could make it past the 60 mark. It’s just the kind of boost […] -
