2nd Year? [Daniel]

It comes to me as a bit of a shock, the end of the year. And is best summed up as a general:

“What? 1st year is over already?”

I mean, the year for me has felt extraordinarily quick. I hear about Yr 12’s finishing (before me, bah!) and it takes a few seconds to remember that, yeah hold on, that was a year ago. And now in a measly three months I’ll be in second year, with another 8 subjects and another bunch of new faces to meet up with.

Now though all I’m feeling is this empty tired feeling; sleep, relax, chill, which I’m a bit ambivalent about. I mean I could, on the one hand, relax and chill doing what ever I’d like to do, but on the other hand I could be working to earn cold hard cash. Which I really only need for the occasional going out, however those occasional going outs are turning  into frequent ones. Making money a bit of a problem.

I mean I regret the fact that I choose the “no money” road to walk by not working this semester, but then again without work it has been a more enjoyable semester. Besides with this mentality I’ll get a wide variety of work experience. Yet.. these holidays are still looking very empty in the realm of employment.

It’s interesting to note how people drift pretty far away when it comes around to holiday time. Not that its their fault, more the fact that everyone I’ve met at university seems to always have a plan instore for the holidays. This makes meet ups pretty difficult to arrange. And if you’ve forgottern to ask for details there is no chance for holiday meet ups. So here’s a friendly reminder to stay friendly and ask for details, with people at uni.

Weirdly enough,  for many people at university they’re a third of the way through their course. Well for many people. Not really much to say about that except,  wow again, time travels fast.

I’ll keep updating during these December holidays and hopefully see you all next year.

Thanks,

Daniel
