A little bit of good news.
Been having a bit of a bad time lately through one thing or another. Long and boring stories. Any way some of you may remember when the A level results came out last year so did a result for a finance exam I had taken. Unfortunately I failed.

With the exams im taking its possible to sit them twice a year. So I put myself in for the December sitting. I also entered one other. At the same time I also changed jobs. The job im doing now is really hard and stressful so trying to revise at the same time was really hard.

I have been dreading today as the results come out. I have just looked and passed one and failed one. Its not as good as passing two but it has lifted my moral. Im really happy now. I can sit the one I failed in June and will probably do another one as well. Only got a few to go now. Its not time to stop of at the TVR show room yet but that time will come.

Well done Jamie, I'm struggling with a course at the moment too so can understand how you feel. I expected to be able to do my studies in a nice quiet air conditioned environment, now I'm sweltering in 34C with high humidity with two dogs and two females disturbing my peace, not easy.

I honestly dont think diving helps with me remembering things though. For instance the day after that chamber dive I felt like I had drunk 10 pints the day before and a bottle of Vodka.

I think just before the next exam im going to have to stop diving for a good few weeks.

Thanks guys.

Jamie

a really big well done mate, its easy to give up but takes guts and determination to keep going. Adam, my boy, hasnt done much diving this last year because of his A levels so you're not alone in making the sacrifice for your future.
Best wishes.
Matt

Well done mate, it takes a lot to motivate yourself to take on these additional challenges.

Good on you for making the effort.
