Think happy thoughts. Think happy thoughts. Think happy thoughts.
Right now I should be in a lecture. Yep. I should also be laying down instead of trying to battle with this headache that seems to be turning into (what I suspect is) a migraine disturbingly fast, so I’ll keep the complaints brief, and maybe even coherent.
My timetable, well… WTF. LIKE SERIOUSLY, WTF. WHY IS EVERY SINGLE JAPANESE SEMINAR OVERFULL EXCEPT FOR THE ONE THAT I CAN’T BE IN? So now I can’t actually attend any Japanese seminars. So far I have only been to one lecture for Jap, and I have done approximately… No homework/study. I haven’t taken the book out of its plastic. Not because I don’t want to, it’s just extremely low on priorities right now.* So I went in today to see if there was anything, anything at all I could do to change my timetable… Nope. That lovely 8 hour Wednesday still exists.
Why is my timetable so crap? It’s lucky that I’m able to ring up my family, because since Mondays and Fridays are 6-hours of fun each, I can’t realistically get home to see them. Gahhhhhh. My head. I think it’s stress…
Today I:
Woke up late (alarm has broken, I noted to myself…).
Forgot to pack lunch, paid more money for lunch than I should have without thinking (streeeesss) and now cannot afford coffee next week. GOOD. 🙁
Was like, 10 seconds too late and missed the bus. The bus driver jerk wouldn’t open the doors for me. I should complain to someone, but I wont. Too stressful.
Had my first Chem practical. Wanted to fall asleep during titrations. Didn’t. Should have, maybe.
Was let down by the timetable-changer. 🙁
Missed three lectures, because I started feeling like I had a headache coming on. Perhaps I shouldn’t have done this, but I bet I’m feeling better now than what I would have had I stayed.
I’m going to stop typing now. It is ten past four on Friday, and all I want to do is lay down and pretend Uni doesn’t exist.
*NB: blogging comes higher cause it lowers my stress level. Which, if you were wondering, is through the roof. See above.
Hey, how are you? Is week three looking a bit better than last week? (yes I notice that I happen to be reading old blogs)
I have had a few “I wish i could escape to the edge of the world and pretend the world doesn’t exist” moments. It’s so easy to start feeling that you don’t matter to the world any more – at least, personally, I’ve never felt so small! And I’m sure you’re not as far behind as you think with studying (I mean it’s only week three!) after all, there is this guy in my maths/physics class who keeps telling me about all the lectures he has missed because he has been so shit drunk. If people like him can be doing advanced physics and vector calculus, then anyone who is vaguely stressed about studying are probably keeping up perfectly fine.
Blogging is definitely a good way to get stuff out of your system. <3 I also like going to the rowand white to just look at the pictures in a random book (I tell myself that i can't get anything productive done during a lunch hour between two lectures anyway)
hang in there!
A reply! Why thank-you!
Hahaha, I like to think that if people like that can scrape through, then so can I. Science subjects can be very overwhelming at times (so… many… WORDS…) and I think I let that get to me too easily :S
Yeah Rowdy is the best place for those 1 – hour breaks, and strangely it’s never too crowded. I like this, quite a bit. =D
Oh yeah, in physics today we were looking at each other and wondering if the lecturer was making up words. It’s not so bad when you actually sit down to do some of the questions.
