Deathbed.

Such a morbid title.

Well, I'm hours (well, days) away from my final exam ever (well, for this year...). Wow, two sentences in and I've already used brackets twice. Lovely.

I shall continue. Because if I don't this'll be a rather short blog.

I have two exams left. Both of them are the fifth module in Chemistry and Physics. Two exams which, while learning them in the last term of school, I felt I should do fine in them, especially in Chemistry. Man, I actually felt like I understood the majority if Chemistry this time. Like, I understand the whole electro-chemistry stuff, with the Hydrogen cell being the point where other cells are measured by. That, and the the most positive cell gets reduced, so the most negative gets oxidized. Man, that's the thing some people in the class find hard, and I got it first time. By the by, that's not me being all "I'm going to pass chemistry with flying colours because I know electrocemeg", no. I'm just hoping that there is a fourty-mark question on that subject, because I know if they ask anything else, I would fail in epic proportions.

It's the same thing in Physics, but the difference is that the subject that I feel confident most in Physics is now nuclear. Yeah, it's basically maths with stupidly small numbers. Shite, and I got to read that CERN thing again... Fuck...

I've already done five exams. Finished Music Technology altogether now. Woo. First exam (an AS resit) was alright, apart from the whole surprise about 'how did Hendrix and Van Halen contribute to Hard Rock?' question. I might have effed that up. The A level exam actually went really well, apart from the computer I used fucked up big time, and the next computer I used. So I had twenty-odd minutes of just sitting there, waiting for a computer just to do something that took about ten minutes. I had a computer that worked at ten past three (in the afternoon), the exam should've ended at about three. Yeah...

CH2 went alright, and CH4 couldn't have gone smoother. Mind you, I said the same last time and managed an E. Fack. Ph4 was a bitch. I didn't even finish it. I don't think I finished half of it. Why is it that I can't finish my Physics exams in A level, and yet still do better in Physics than in Chemistry? Grrrr...

So, in my head I'm thinking that thus far I've got atleast a high D in Music Tech, scraping a C in Chemistry and a D in Physics. Not looking well for the BBC that I need for my uni course...

Ergh, I don't know. I'll need to find a back-up plan...

In other news, I has two more songs up on my SoundCloud. Here's a widget thingy from it, with the two new tracks. =]. If you fancy reading the info on the song, I think if you double click or something on the widget then you can see it on the actual site with the whole info. Yeah...

I shall leave you now. Because I have no idea what to do now.

Wish me luck.

The Importance Of Being Idle.

I'll be honest with you, I'm in no fit mood to think of anything imaginative now. But fuck it, it's another way to avoid revision. Nearly typed in religion... same thing really.

First, revision. I've kind of come at the same point in my exam life as I was during my GSCE's and, well... pretty much every exam I've sat. I read, nothing goes in. This makes me feel like I've got nothing to do, so I do something to kill the time for an hour or two before I try to revise again. Yet again I fail to embed the knowledge that is required for the exam into my brain, so once again I fill the void of time with browsing the web and on the stringed instruments of despair. Why despair? Well, if I carry on like this (and, our survey says it's a possibility that it will), all I'd be doing during the time between my final exam and the results day is worrying. Worrying if I had the right results. Worrying if I've managed to impress the people who run the Uni course I've applied to enough that they'll take me in regardless on how shite I've dumped on the exam paper. And yet, even though I know all of this will happen three minutes after I hand my final examination paper to the teacher, I know all this will be in my head, and what am I doing? Am I forcing CH4 and PH4 in me? No, I'm doing this post. What hope is there for me?

Talking about hope, one thing I hope for is that I impress PromoCymru enough that they'll start paying me for being Wicid's Sub-Editor. It's a long shot, and even if they do pay me for being sub-editor, it won't be a lot. But then again, something is better than nothing, eh?

Shite, that reminds me. Not the thing I just said in the past paragraph, no. Yeah, the Football World Cup's on. A bunch of failed actors having a competition to see who can act the best. In that case, Argentina, Portugal or Spain will win it hands down, or maybe Italy. God, I hope they don't win. Why can't Ghana or Cameroon win? Eh? Or Holland. Now, that's a team who should win. Man, I have a weird way of looking at teams, eh?

But yeah, while some people are going "Anyone but England", I'm thinking "Anyone but England, Italy, Spain, Portugal or Argentina". Don't ask why, mind.

But, to be fair, fuck the Football world cup. The Rugby one's much better. Not because Wales is better in rugby than football, but I think rugby's a better sport than football... that is all.

And another thing. I can't remember the other thing I was going to expand on, but I forgotted...

Er....

I can only think of finishing this now...

So...

- To FIN, or not to FIN. That, is a takeoff from Hamlett...

It's A Small Post Afterall...

Yeah, hi.

Sorry that this is going to be a rather dull post. But aye, it's something to do while Family Guy's on BBC Three.

This, is a post just for asking your opinion on a song I made on Guitar Pro 6. Aye.

So, here it is...

Song One - Untitled (For Now). by CrazyDistortion

As there's no singing in here, I've stuck the different sections here...

0:00 - Intro.
0:35 - Verse One*.
0:53 - Breakdown.
1:11 - Verse Two*.
1:47 - Breakdown.
2:05 - Chorus Part One*.
2:23 - Chorus Part Two*.
2:41 - Chorus Breakdown.
2:59 - Bass (then, after 3:08, Whole Band) Interlude..
3:26 - Interlude Verse*.
3:44 - Reverse Intro (Guitar plays the Bass Intro part).
3:53 - Verse Reversed*.
4:11 - Breakdown.
4:29 - Rest...
4:33 - Chorus Part Two*.
4:51 - Outro.

I'm not even sure what genre it is. All I can imagine when this is played is some political rap-type lyrics... Or something...

But yeah, let me know what you think. =].

Also, on a exam related note, I've done two out of seven exams. The latest one was Chemistry (CH2). It was rather good, to be fair, well, compared to the other CH2 papers I've done. Hopefully done better than an E...

So, next is CH4... let's hope I get better than an E in that too..

So yeah, sorry for the bland post. =].

- Sing a song of FINness....
