Marketing fury

Marketing annoys me. Probably because I hate subjects that are wishy-washy, vague and subjective. Or because it's just terrible in and of itself.

I don't even know how I should go about studying for this. It seems stupid to memorise everything, not to mention mentally taxing and probably impossible, but I'll probably have to do that anyway to have a chance of getting something resembling a good mark. It all seemed so easy when it was multi-choice question tests.

After marketing, the rest of the exams...well, the last exam...should be chillaxed. I mean, it's a week after marketing on Friday, it's French, and it's worth 25%. It's actually been a fairly easy semester. It just so happens that I don't apply myself very well. Bad study habits and all that. Next semester will be different. The last three times that I have said that don't count.

Word of the day: Marketing

Je commence un nouveau semester avec l'examen francais

May or may not be grammatically correct, but roughly translates to "I have started a new semester with a French test." Which is not technically correct, but I don't know how to say "term" in French. Come to think of it, I don't think "semester" is the correct word for semester in French. But this is also a moot point, as today was neither the first day of a new term or a new semester. I don't know what they call it at uni. I'll settle for "first day back from mid-sem break." 

I did actually have a French test today. But it was ridiculously overhyped, like Jay Chou coming to Sydney, Windows Vista, and see-through glass toasters (so your toast can be toasted to the optimum level of browness. Alas, it can only do one piece of toast at any given moment. So really, you'd need two toasters to reach the optimal level of awesomeness. But I digress.) It was really easy. The main thing I'm worried about is whether I accidentally read "dress" as being "skirt," and accordingly stuffed up the translation to French.

Next up is the marketing midsem on Thursday. I think the most important thing to remember in marketing is that YouTube is full of weird and funny ads. You just need to know which keywords to type in.
