I want to be a lion tamer! I’ve got a hat from Harrods, it lights up saying ‘Lion Tamer’ in giant neon letters so I can tame the lions after dark when they’re less stroppy

Perhaps a friend of mine can give you some career advice. Though, I don’t know how good the advice will be from a Lion Tamer named Claude Baddly.

My exams are starting tomorrow and I’m really starting to stress.

The main problem is that I don’t know what to expect. I’ve done some practice papers and some were really easy and some were really hard.

I also feel like I haven’t studied enough. I’m just so worried.a-hard-days-night-ringo-14

I’m talking into the camera in English! So awkward. Proceeding to play… a song… I feel is rarely covered. ;P

There's nothing you can see that isn't shown.

You’ll be feeling the same way the very large majority of folk taking the same exam will be feeling @Beatleva. Try and get a good nights sleep and take them one by one. If you’ve done the revision then you’ll be fine so relax and just look forward to when they are over.

@Linde, all you can do is your best. If nothing comes of the interviews have a look around as to what the options are and go from there. It will work it somehow, maybe just not how you want or think it will. 

Well done on the German exam @AppleScruffJunior and good luck with the upcoming French and Irish ones. I’m sure i’m meant to say nice reassuring things but the picture of the car and your comments really made me laugh. A test on Waterfalls? Should be quite enjoyable; i really like the song (remember there is a radio edit as that might cause a bit of confusion in the questions otherwise) but the video is pretty naff. Try to hold back on the jokes about Pauls waistcoat. What questions do you expect on it? It was a single in the UK hitting the top 10.

Had an Ahhh Paul moment watching this one. Love that hair… and even that corny “When I’m Sixty-Four ” style vest looks fab on him. 

Anyway, back on topic… 

What’s happening in my life? Well, I’m not really sure… I’m too busy making other plans.

Oh wow, good luck! I failed the first time, because I hadn’t done enough and was out too much. What helped for me the second time, was starting earlier, doing practice papers (I did at least 3 on every subject) and going to bed early. Also make sure that you get some relaxing time too. Go out for a walk to clear your head (but not too much otherwise you forget everything, ha!) and to take the stress off. TRY NOT TO WORRY TOO MUCH.  And spoil yourself a little bit with snacks you like. 

Those are preperation tips. My tips for the exams themselves would be: Take your time, don’t keep hanging at questions you initially don’t know the answer to for too long, just skip them and get back at them later, and check afterwards if you really filled in everything. Don’t go correcting everything when you get back to check if you filled in everything. Usually your first guess is good. Unless you are a 100% certain of course. Make sure you eat and drink enough. The obvious stuff really.

I’m in the market for two healthy young sprightly knees, willing to trade for the two i currently have – one careful owner, hardly been used etc etc. Two feet would be good as well so if you hear of either or both please let me know.

1. Go offline for a bit. 

2. Stock up on apples. 

3. Purchase everything else. 

4. Stay on topic.

I think I contributed to @HongKongLady’s inaction by ringing her phone in the middle of her indecision :)

Turn your phone off, even better leave it at home. The world will survive and you’ll really appreciate the freedom of not having the damn thing beep every two seconds and therefore be able to concentrate on your shopping.

I say in speeches that a plausible mission of artists is to make people appreciate being alive at least a little bit. I am then asked if I know of any artists who pulled that off. I reply, 'The Beatles did'.
