    Don't be so hard on yourself jewels, give yourself a couple of days off and then just remind yourself about those letters you'll have after your name.

    BTW aren't the exams in December. or have things changed with the new regime?

    Exams are the last Monday in November and cross end November/start December.

    I've been putting off studying for December until results day just so I could be sure of which exam/s I would be doing!

    Jewels - set youself a time and a day to study and do it then it will slowly become part of your routine again! My aim this week is to try and sit and study for one hour in the evening at least twice before the weekend. I'm starting small to ease myself back in!

    I've got DFS left.

    I did plan on starting to study last night but I was far too tired after being restless the night before waiting for the exam results!!

    I did bring my book to work and read a bit on the journey in!

    Jewels will these be your last 2 exams?

    I'm getting married in September which is why I'm trying to get into studying now! Can't really wait until we are back as that will only leave October and November!

    Can I join in too! At least to get my backside kicked - I'm off to the States at the beginning of October so I'll need to make sure I don't use that as an excuse to delay!

    Yeah course you can join in too Jenny! Lets make it that anyone who uses going on holiday as an excuse gets a double kick up the backside (jealousy is the real reason) :lol:

    Hee, hee! My sister is getting married (she lives over there) and, with her usual lack of sense and planning, sprang it on me last week! Cue frenzied searching for flights etc.

    My cats are going to be very miffed at being plonked in the cattery again after I specifically promised I wouldn't do it again for ages.

    I should take myself off to the gym tonight but this afternoon I'm finding myself saying 'but you could give the gym a miss and study instead'. Hmmmm.... I don't fancy the gym as I'm really tired so why on earth does any part of me think I might actually study?!

    And you are not allowed to use the excuse when you come back that your cats are not talking to you so you are too upset to study! lol

    I think we are all too tired this week after the stress of getting results yesterday so we need a week to recover before we start studying......................or is that me needing a kick up the backside already?!!!

    Damn! You've got me in advance on that one - I can see you are going to be a very strict dealer of the backside-kicking..... will have to be very inventive to get anything past you.

    :( feeling a bit left out now having just read this thread.

    Do you know what? I think it's the constant encouragement on here that has really inspired me and kept me going when, just sometimes, things seemed impossible!!!

    That's why I put a little thread on the chat asking if people would still visit now they had passed - that was meant for people just like you! I've seen all the help and advice you've given everyone and was hoping I wasn't too late to miss out on it all.

    So, please stay!

    Currently studying for an Audit Unit 17-very very dull but need to get it done as it is a skills test on 11th September.

    Was hoping getting my 2 passes would buck me up but seems I just cant be bothered with this unit and I really want to get cracking with MAC which seems more interesting which I have saved for September 12th onwards!!!

    Next 3 weeks will be fun AUDIT AUDIT AUDIT!!!
