I hope everyone had a lovely
Easter! I headed off home for the majority of the Easter break which was
lovely. I was able to catch up with all my family and friends since I haven’t
been able to go home since Christmas. It was extremely relaxing especially after
handing in my dissertation and the remainder of my coursework. I also ate my
own weight in Easter eggs so it’s straight back to exercising for me, oops!
I’ve also begun my revision
timetable for my exams; I have two this year for Sporting Events Management and
Contemporary Issues in Events Management. I have my longest exam this year of
three hours, which will be killer, but hopefully the preparation will pay off.
Everyone has their own revision technique, but I find it useful to firstly read
up on everything, going over my notes and lecture slides. I then begin to break
the information down onto revision cards and revise these. Then once I am
confident I begin to answer the past exam paper questions. It took me a while
to establish which method worked best for me, exams I always find to be
stressful and much prefer coursework. But, preparation is the key as you have
the knowledge to be able to answer the questions and not get too stressed in
the exam.
Information is slowly filtering
through about my graduation ceremony which is exciting. It still shocks me how
quickly time has flown since I started my degree. I have confirmed my tickets
and next need to sort out my graduation gown. All strange concepts but it’s
just round the corner in July! More importantly I also need to buy my outfit,
which I imagine is going to take me a while.
