Uni Exam Results
The most heart straining university activity in existence is going to the website to see if your exam results are up. Checking MyUsyd on MyWebCT to see MyExamResults and receive a MyCardiacArrest is something you never get used to.
It wouldn't be such a sudden bursting aging process if all your results from 4 months of sweaty toil weren't spat in your mouth in 4 lines. Bodily fluids aside, it's enough to cause definite heart failure particularly for those subjects for which you know you were on the borderline of failure. The HSC results are the first time you see the information revealed in one foul swoop, and now that happens twice a year.

You log in to your university account. Already you can feel your mouth drying... your eyeballs drying... your towels tumble drying. But your wet laundry seems so unimportant for now.
It's a site you haven't been to for a while. For some reason your summer holiday filled with not-university didn't steer you towards YourUni for your 23rd pre-enrolment notification.
After spending far too long remembering that your password was your name, you are now logged in, and your results are beavers, likely to chew you away. Your heartbeat starts thumping and Polynesians dance to the island rhythm.
Everything seems so familiar from semesters hence, and from your constant refreshing of the results page for the past 2 weeks. But you recently got a message from your dear friend with nothing but a :'( face, so you know they're there for sure now. At this point, you expect to hear the Jaws theme or some sort of spooky Icelandic chorus playing in the background to complement the mood.
Argh.. vision too weak.. too tensed.. everything just looks like blurs of numbers and course codes. They should try to soften the exam result procedure. Maybe they could randomly call you in the day with one result at a time. You'd be able to choose at the beginning of semester between a sexy voice or a goofy clown voice.
