You know what this is.

IT'S A CELEBRATION, BITCHES!

I grabbed a drink, I grabbed my glass. Note to self: Scotch tastes better neat. The ice just makes it taste like feet.

Semester 1:

• Introduction to the Australian Economy - 61, Pass
• Moral and Legal Foundations of Human Rights - 80, Distinction
• Research Methods 3A - 62, Pass
• Psychobiology of Memory and Motivation - 64, Pass
• Personality and Individual Differences - 70, Credit

Term WAM: 66.625


Semester 2:

• Macroeconomics 1 - 70, Credit
• Research Methods 3B - 65, Credit
• Social Psychology - 69, Credit
• The Psychology of Language - 63, Pass

Term WAM: 66.750

Overall WAM: 73.479


I know, I know. That's kinda mediocre by my standards. But, the important thing is that I worked my ass off this Semester, and I got the results I wanted. I've pretty much made my peace with the Sub-Distinction overall WAM. A 73.479 throughout three years of Uni is still pretty damn good. Besides, throughout Third Year, I averaged 65.5 across my six Psych courses; including the five from Second Year, my Psych average jumps up to 70.09. If entry into Honours is purely marks-based, I SHOULD have what I need to get in. Fingers crossed.

In the meantime, I is happy happs that I made it through another Semester without failing. I was anticipating failure in a couple of those subs, so getting three Credits is totally overkill.

"DOGS BRO."
"RD FOREVER! MARTIN NEVER!"
"Mart, I hope you're having fun studying. Your exam's not until Thursday, you girl!"

I heard what they said. But fuck that. I knew what awaited me if I didn't get my priorities straight. Had I gone, I would've left myself vulnerable to academic EPICFAIL. And to paraphrase the Don Cartagena, "It'll be a cold day in hell the day I take a FAIL." So, I stayed home, buried my face in a bunch of books and PDFs. Getting the results I did, I can happily say I made the right decision. Even if I somehow manage to miss the cut for Honours, I can still rest assured that I put my best foot forward. Worth it, for damn sure.
