Any 18 year old that decided to stay in school those extra two years has or is about to finish their final A2 exams. For those that have yet to finish, they will know the feeling that so closely matches the title of this post. The days move slowly, with nothing coming, apart from your next exam.
However, the exams are the only obstacles in the way of university, which - from a teenage boy's perspective - offers the promise of nights out, a private room, and not least of all, Girls. Skirt. Crumpet. Biscuit. Gash. Totty.
So, for those like me, who are still in that stage of revision, it's time to make a small but vitally important adjustment to the mindset. Do not think of revision as a chore, or something that is easily distracted from. In fact, view every exam as a ticket, every page of revision a cost of that ticket, and every ticket as an opening to a world of opportunity, and most of all: the opening of a girls legs.
