My other two exams weren't too bad, my hand just hurt after all the pages of writing I had to do.
I'm finding it hard to motivate myself to revise for my last exam as people are already leaving to go back home and I just want to spend my time making the most of these last few days in Wellington.
I've had my fair share of study breaks to go for goodbye coffees for Alicia and Juliette who are now back in France. I've also done my final cleaning job; they gave me a big box of chocolates to say thank you which was very kind of them.
On Thursday, Maxence, Merien and I made use of our free tickets to Wellington's zoo.
I can now return home as I have finally seen a kiwi; sadly it was pretty dark so I couldn't get a very good photo. We also saw a very scary pelican (pictured above), plenty of monkeys, giraffes, tiger, bears, a lion, a cheetah, penguins, otters and a range of Australian animals (to get me in the mood for next week).
Our favourite animal had to be the little chimpanzee (pictured below). We spent ages watching it playing with a sack and it seemed almost like a human child in its behaviour.
We were extremely lucky with the weather as the sun shone and we relaxed under New Zealand's intense blue sky; I'll miss that vivid blue.
Liam and I are going to make use of our free passes to the cinema this evening and watch a film set in Wellington then tomorrow morning we're going to Maxence's for brunch as he has a balcony with an amazing view across the city and a professional coffee machine. Fingers crossed my final exam will be ok on Tuesday. I'll update my blog again when I get back from Sydney (if I have time during those last two hectic days before coming home).
