Libby and I were talking yesterday about being obsessed by marks. I don't know if I am. I have been urgh this week because I've been watching my average go down with every day I don't do enough study. As of this minute my average is 86. In 24 hours I'm guessing it will be a chunk less. And in a week another chunk less than that. And then I get the results from my essay so who knows what will happen then. I did get 83 for social science which I'm really happy about. That's the only subject I've got a final mark in.
Maybe I do take the numbers too seriously. I think at some point I realised that having a proper job at the Reserve Bank was conceivable. And I got a bit excited by that thought. It's made the numbers relevant too me for the first time because the Reserve Bank cares about the numbers. I'd so love to work there. Such clever bank chaps. Such good experience. Such a good starting bit to lots of other things that would be really fun to do. Like save the world.
If my marks were as high as yours I wouldn’t be worrying. Congratulations.
