Another exam is finally done today. That is the main reason of my lack of posts. I have been meaning to make one, always signed in and was always ready to make a post but I ended up not writing anything. x_x

The process of studying for this exam was rather... surprising. I expected the materials to be quite a lot, yet some weren't that much. I still even had the time to download some games and played them in between my rest time from studying, LOL~ Currently I'm playing mini games like Dancing Craze, Party Planner, and Hidden Object Crossword. Much fun between my studies.

Today the exam ended up quite good in my opinion. Mistakes here and there after checking it with my friends, but not so grave. Actually it depends on how the grading process is done. The exam was an integrated one between many fields, and if they decide to score it based on each field and decide on whether we have to re-take the exams based on the fields, then I'm as good as dead since I think I may fail one field. Otherwise, I should be okay. *sighs*

Well, time to prepare for the next exam. This one is A TON. I wonder how I'll survive it. Today I just don't feel like I have any strength left to study, geez. T_T

Another short review for me, yes! Kind of to celebrate the exam today, my friends and I went to watch a movie at a nearby theater. We chose to watch Battleship. Quite a nice movie, in my opinion, it reminds me of Transformers series quite much, but this one is done at the sea. XD Well, I hope you enjoy reading it!

Obvious warning, spoilers ahead, as much as I try to keep it as superficial as possible, so do NOT read if you do NOT want to be spoiled!

In general, Battleship might not be a movie you want to watch if you seek for a strong and solid plot, but it is still an enjoyable movie. With all the effects and characterization, the plot becomes more lively compensating for the standard flow of the plot.
