No, really, I know what you're talking about. I'm going to graduate from university this year and I might continue with my studies in another school because the economy seems not be doing too good and it might be difficult finding a job. But the problem is that all the entrance examinations (from the dictionary, don't blame me if the word is wrong ) are in June... And I'll be bouncing around Europe from May 30 to July 2.

I'm not sure what I'm gonna do but I guess I have to just try to speak myself in, after all I have graduated from university (by then), that must be more valuable than an entrance examination!! Especially because I'm going to study on a lower level. But there is no way I would give up this tour because of some lousy exams This is a once in a lifetime experience!

Definitely.... should be a great tour - especially for you!!

my only problem is the trains in the UK - which are terrible. If i have a 9 am exam then i'm stuck - if it's afternoon I can do all the concerts...

it just means £30 a time x 3 in 1 week on the train

That's a lot of money for a trainride! I thought a ride on a train in the Netherlands was expensive! Guess I was wrong.

Even though I won't be attending a BJ show this year (due to their tour plans) all my exams will be over before May 31st. Then I'm off all summer until my studies starts again in early September. How can you all have exams in middle/late June? Don't you have the summer off??
