This time in seven days I'll (presumably) be heading to bed on the night before my first-final exam. Over the following nine days I'll sit a total of six exams ranging from topics as diverse as the Historical Foundations of the British Constitution and the Conflict of Laws, to Equity and Jurisprudence.
Exam term is always an odd term. The current atmosphere at University can be summed up by more apt clichés than I'd usually care for, but "the calm before the storm" works well. Hopefully though, upon putting down my pen for the last time at midday on the 5th June, it'll turn out that it would have been more suitable to speak of "the calm before the storm in a teacup". Wishful thinking? We'll just have to wait and see.
