In which Tori has her second exam

This morning was my EIA exam and it went ok. I stuffed up two of the questions (not worth much each) and the final question was just rediculous but other than that it was ok.
After the exam I met Megan and Emma at the ref and we chatted about the exam and how evil our Antarctic Ecology lecturer is and how we dont want to start studying again since it was such a nice day. Luckily for me I got a phone call from Ingrid not long after I got back from uni to say that Biscuit was sick (not good for Bicky) and was wondering if I could drive them to the vet. It turns out Biscuit may have a collapsed trackea (spelling?) but she needs x-rays to confirm it. In order to x-ray her she will have to be sedated and before they can sedate her she needs blood tests so all in all it will be a very expensive trip to the vet simply to diagnose her not to mention the treatment afterwards. So I took Ingrid back to work and Bicky came to play with Twistie. I gave Twist a bath cause she had so much dirt and dead hair in her coat that her rump felt all sticky. After I let Twistie go she went mental and we played chasey up and down the track behind Jan's shed for a while before I settled down and cleaned out some of my paddock. Then I fed Twist and took Biscuit back to Ingrid at work.
All in all it has been a good day. I do have one thing to complain about though. I have written three posts and they have only one comment between them and the comment was not even related to the post. Now thats a bit sad. Surely the 20 something people I informed about my new blog have something to write on it. (Not that I am ungreatful to Emma for saying good luck).
Anyways I better head off to tea. Before studying for my exam on Thursday. Antarctic Ecology next.

Hi Tori, I hope Biscuit is going to be OK. This must be the year of the sickly older dog. If you stuffed up 2 questions and thought the last one was silly did you answer any? Love M

I answered all 12 of them. I just stuffed up questions 7 and 8. Question 13 was self evaluation "What role do you think you will play in the EIA process and how do you think this course will help you achieve this?" See just silly. But I answered it anyway seeing as it was worth 30% of the marks. Just rediculous

Most of my friends (who are obviously very slack and lazy) dont comment on my blog either. But my nerdy brother, on the other hand, frequently gets lots and lots and lots of comments on his blog (probably because all his friends are nerds too).

We will just have to keep commenting on each other's blogs.

By the way, which ones were question 7 and 8. I always forget straight after I finish the exam.

Tori said...

question 7 was about the threatened species and question 8 was ISO14001

Emma said...

Oh yeah, I didn't like question 7 either.

I think I did ok on ISO14001 though

You obviously have a very slack group of friends and acquaintances.
