Unfortunately, it was a kind of fruit that no one liked.

Fortunately, there was a variety of fruits that someone could possibly like.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately there were too many pieces of fruit left over, & by the end of the week they had to be discarded when they went bad.

Fortunately, the end of the week was the start of the school holidays and now all the students can be as inattentive as they like!

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Fortunately, finals were put on hold because a storm closed the schools.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately, due examinations have to be redone before the final results are published in the Press, & only with special permission.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Fortunately, most of us here are too grown up (sort of) to have to worry about exams any more.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately, some are in college and have mid term exams and final exams.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Fortunately, some examinations are external ones which have to be done for university & further education entry, so they don't affect the bulk of school students.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately, students still stress about them either way because they know they are coming so they have to cram and study.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Fortunately the newspapers are full of tips at such times on how to manage exam stress, at pains to show at least the media is on the side of stressed out students.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately, students are less likely to read newspapers when under extreme pre-exam stress.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Fortunately before the actual exams are sat for, the end of year Year 12 formals are held for relaxation from exam stress.

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Unfortunately, formals can be almost as frustrating as exams, with the conundrums of what to wear and who to go with...

Re: Fortunately/Unfortunately
Fortunately, attendance at formals isn't compulsory, especially if unable to find someone to go with.
