IBS: Klarat och Sverige: Kvalificerat

So, 2 days ago, i got to know my results of my exam "International Business Studies"...and finally, I pass it :) It wasn't so obvious according I didn't work so much, but I did the minimum and it was enough. Today, we were given back the exam, so I got D, which means I got 65% of the points so (13/20 for France), which is not bad, rather the contrary. Moreover, it was funny to know that I got the maximum points of questions where we had to learn by heart, me who hates doing this...but I had nevertheless to take time for this, coz some questions were only by heart.
So, now i have exactly 22,5 credits, (15 for IBS + 7,5 Swedish). I need 60 for passing this year, hope I'll got them.
Otherwise, what can I retain of this exam... it was still very difficult to start the revisions (working simply would be the right word lol)...I started to work obviously too late, the last week, and especially the 2 last days...I still didn't work enough....BUT I nevertheless managed to pass it, which is the most important. The fact that I don't have to take the re-exam doesn't motivate me for changing my method, way of work, the procrastinator one is still here...however, I'll have to change for sure, it doesn't mean it would work everytimes.
We were supposed to read 3 book during this course, the first one I didn't read it at all, but apparently we didn't need this for making the project about international companies (I made this one with two spanish about "Carrefour"). The other book were supposed to be read for learning about political system in Baltic countries....finally, I learnt power point which were sent, and it was enough....and for the third book, I read the usefull chapters, simply the ones we had to read, but finally, it didn't bring me so many points... so almost useless too :/ It's a good point to know that the book are not so indispensable that we could think, and as they are very expensive (about 110€ for only these 3 books...much more expensive that in France :s ). The next time, I'll think about two times before buying a book for course.

Now, I'll deal with the evening...so after I got to know that I passed, I was rather happy, which is rare in my daily life, as I'm rather "normal, serious" (people often say this about me). In the evening i went to a pub watching the qualification football match "Sweden-Latvia" with Freddy, italian boy, for the European Championship 2008. Finally Sweden won 2-1 although it was difficult, even if they were favorit. But it was a good match, and in the end, everyobody was happy of course. As for France, we are also qualified...but England, no lol ^^.
After football match, I finished the evening in a "pizza- party" or simply pre-party....then I went back home directly, I didn't continue the party in disco and others, I was a little tired :)

Now, my future plans are simple, working on Individual Research Project (IRP)about Volvo company...I had to do it, and especially planning the Christmas Holidays, until next course which begins in the 21th January about. If I manage to finish IRP in the right time with my brasilian binome, we should have about 1 month holidays, so enough to travel a little why not, which would not bad.


Last thing to add: I got "Shark level" In Facebook Poker...so 5 stars....not bad, I became simply a Poker Killer :D
