No more AS exams for me!!! :D
I had my last one today in Graphics - 3 hours aswell!
3 papers, one after the other. Sat in a freezing cold Sports Hall.
I think I actually did quite well overall, except for one or two questions that we never actually covered at all in lessons!
It started badly and finnished quite badly - for me anyway.
The exam was delayed after we sat down, as they'd hande out all the wrong papers first - so us Graphics people were there about 10 minutes longer than everyone else! But once I got underway, it went alright.
I just hope that my poor handwriting was legible enough! :S
It got bad in the last hour and a half or so, as I felt my bladder trying to tell me something. In an exam, you are actually allowed to go to the toilet, but for me it was right across the other side of the hall, and you loose a few minutes of time which you could be spending answering questions. So I decided to sit there, and was desperately holding on for the rest of the time left!
When you hear "You have 5 minutes left!" it gets worse for some reason!
Maybe cuz you know you're so close to the toilet that you can almost smell it - but you're still so far with 4 and a half minutes to go!
But I made it in the end, and I shot out off that Sports Hall faster than you can say "No more AS exams for me!!" - well, almost... :D
I felt great afterwards, and even better when I got home!
Nope, my GameCube didn't come, but the Parcel Force man turned up with my 2 games - ISS 2 and Luigi's Mansion. :D
No all I need is the console and Memory Card that I also ordered from SR.
Won't be long now I hope.
Then again, it's only about 4 weeks tops 'till I have to go back again and start A2 - before the summer! :(

SSBM - seems a little disappointing. Still, i've not played multiplayer yet. Should give that a go this evening : )
Wicky wicky waa waa wicky wicky waa waa wicky waa wicky waa wickedy wickedy waa waa waa waa wa waa waa waa waa wa west.
Just my will smith style celebration on finishing my exams. Week and a half off til i start full time work for the summer. Bah, it was much easier back in high school... : )
Finished my last exam at half eleven, went and sorted out some stuff and me couple of mates in the town, then i bought super duper smashy washy (who called it that? And why did you make it stick in my head? :OP ).
50 yards from getting back home i glanced down at the bag, and through the cheap thin plastic i saw the super monkey ball box. D'oh. Who's the bigger muppet - the guy at the store who gave me the wrong game, or me, who didn't bother to checkthe game in the bag? Anyway, half an hour later, i was back home having changed the game for the right one.
Ah well, the extra walk helped me run off a bit of my excess energy. Today doesn't seem nearly long enough. Ideally, i'd get out of the exam, buy ssbm (or sdsw?), and play 3 or 4 hours of cube.
Then i'd go play basketball in the empty gym for an hour and a half, half an hour to shower. Get a meal in. Go play some pool and 9-ball, for about 3 hours, then go out and get pithed : )
Would only need about 15 hours then...

> you did! ;)
LOL, well I found it quite hard which made it unenjoyable, I'm glad I swapped it for THPS3 because it rules

Ok cheers man :) Just needed some views on it to convince me, thanks.
Definalty buy it, the 1P is ace. and if you are bothered about the multiplayer you can have a 4 person battle with the computer, even when play multi player with my bro I always add in 2 computer characters
There wasn’t much point in starting a whole new topic for this so I thought I’d post it in here :)
I am considering buying super smash bro’s melee, but I only live with my mum and was wondering if fit was a good 1 player game. Me and my mates usually go around each other’s houses each weekend so that’s the only time I would get to play the multiplayer mode. It looks really good and I am very close to buying it but I haven’t really heard much about the one player aspect of it, so any views on the game and the 1 player mode would be much appreciated.
Thanks guys :)

Arrr this is the life. Chillin' in a pleasent area, playin' games!
For anyone who finds Wave Race hard to control I've got some advice.
When your selecting your character, press Z, then on each of the different stats for the character move them 2 places to the left and the games helluva lot easier to control!
Oh and BIGMAN if your around. Finally got to play on Rogue Leader. Quality game! Can't believe you wanted to part with it! But I'm glad you did! ;)
So how is everyone?
Not that I'm gonna be around to read your replies or anything! LOL!
Oh well, cya's y'all!
