Never played that much in one sitting

I have. Toilet breaks, of course.

That's a relief

I finished my exams yesterday

And there was much rejoicing

Exams in what, and did it go well you think?

English and French (and Finnish, that was the first exam). We had lots of tests of varying difficulty (some of them shouldn't even be called 'exams' because they were very easy). There were 15 in total, crammed in the last 3 weeks. It was exhausting, but that's how exam periods are at my faculty.

We've only received our results for a few of those and I got top marks

Alors, on t'attend quand en France pour un peu de pratique?

Not anytime soon

I'm going to Finland this summer for a two week summer course. Or at least I hope I'll get selected

Ah, exams. I think once you reach a certain age it's really difficult, if not impossible, to sit crouched over a text book and study. I am far past that age, which is quite unfortunate.

Yeah it's no fun and I can't study as long as I used to. I'll be offline for the next couple of weeks.

Any tips for staying away from the computer? This is an especially daunting task in my case since me and him are joined at the hip.

Yep, use your self-discipline

What works with me is to just plug it off, I then know I will not put it back on until my work is done.

Remove your processor and bury it for a while.

I just check in my mind if I have something to do with and if I'm up the task (not being too tired, sleepy, having something other urgent). And driven by that I will run it or not.

What's the matter? You are seeing that sloppy device addictive!?

It is a bit whether it is posting, chatting a bit or gaming. But my study attention span has also been on the decrease the past few years so I can't concentrate for more than a few hours - especially on boring subjects

A little of this a little of that and I waste time.

That concept is unbeknownst to me.

I find it hard to study things too. Even if I have the time, and nothing else to do, I start thinking about things instead.

If it makes you feel any better... I have trouble getting off the computer and getting out the door to do things as well.

So shiny... so mesmerizing...

Is the Jump to page interface a new additional or it's like there forever and I even haven't noticed it until now?
