ACCA exams done, what next?

Finally I finished the last ACCA exam for this semester today!! Yeah! I'm 'free' from studying for two months! I was still nervous this morning about the exam, partly because I hadn't worked hard enough on the revision for the exam today, also because the exam was much more difficult that I had expected. I had thought it'd be the easiest exam I had among the three and I hoped to get a high mark (above 80%) but it turned out it was the one with the lowest mark (67%). As I was doing the exam, I started feeling worried. Luckily I passed. Anyway, it didn't matter whether I got high marks or not, as long as I passed the exams! But it showed me I shouldn't underestimate the course.

The life of the past three months as ACCA student was different from what I had expected and the course was not as easy as I had thought. I wouldn't say I enjoyed studying it much, though I did gain some knowledge about business and accounting. I shouldn't complain because it helped me to get a student visa to stay in this country. It did help me to know more about myself: I don't think I'll be interested in doing accounting or business stuff like that, and somehow it makes me understand why some accounting people are so calculating...

I did feel relaxed and happy that I finished the ACCA exam today. But at the same time I felt like doing nothing. After exam, I walked past Deansgate where I saw lots of people in the protest march. I didn't feel like going anywhere but home then. I should have started planning for the change of flatmate but I didn't feel like doing that; it's something that I don't want to face, especially when it's got to do with my flatmate who I'm not happy with at the moment. I did nothing but had a short nap and surfed the internet before going out again in the late afternoon.

To treat myself, I had GBK dinner again! Should have tried not to spend too much money on dining out but I really like GBK burgers and chunky chips! Yummy yummy...

What next for this summer?
