Uni results

Got my uni results. To hear me ramble, and bitch without reason, see...
It's official: I am very irrational. After a semester when I had a death in the family, helped sell a house, and moved house (when I should have a applied for special consideration but was far too disorganised), and had a strong fear of failing taxation, I finally got my results.
Was I ecstatic that I received HD's on my two easy subjects? No. Was I thrilled that I got a Credit in Tax (60% - Just scraped in!)? No. My first reaction was shocked horror that I got 51 for Auditing. I just (barely) passed...
In reflection, I'm glad it's over, and am happy with my marks. It just shocked me that I spent a week preparing for the tax exam, and had a very real fear of failing (I hate law subjects. It's the last law subject I have to complete for my degree, and it would have been horrible to repeat. Trust me, Harry Potter would feel happier about repeating potions...).
I knew Auditing was another hard subject, but I was too freaked about Tax to spend more than a couple of days studying. The horrifying thought was that I was so close to failing it, and I hadn't realised (two marks lower, and I'd be repeating.). I still haven't got my marks for the mid-semester report (worth 20% of the course marks). I'm guessing that I failed it and just scraped through on the exam... Considering how stressed I was studying for exams, knowing that might have broken me altogether! ^.^
Thank heavens, it's over.

Sometimes I wish all shows started like Six Feet Under (No spoiler at the start, opening credits long enough to allow me to run around the house searching for a blank tape!)
