Long story short, I suck (Cristina)
Hello all my delicious dumplings!
May I just start by saying how FABULOUS you all look today!? Truly exquisite! You must give me the number of your hairdresser. And that OUTFIT! What a riot! You’ll be giving that <insert name of famous designer here because I have no interest in fashion and wouldn’t have a clue> a run for their money!
Has the buttering up worked yet? Sigh, I doubt it.
I’m so sorry, my sweet ducklings! But it’s probably a fortunate thing for you that I haven’t posted for the past two weeks. For starters, nothing interesting has been happening. At all. I handed in all my assignments, which is good. I should start working on my last lot of assignments, which is bad. In terms of marks I have been getting, I am a little disillusioned. Three H2B’s and two H3’s. Is this good? Is it bad? Is it what I should be expecting? I guess I’m just not used to being an “average student”. I really would like a H2A. That would make me feel a little better. I’ve kind of given up any hope of a H1. The one thing I don’t like about my course is how I feel like EVERYONE is so much smarter than me, so much more enthusiastic, so much more INCLINED TO LOAN OUT ALL THE USEFUL LIBRARY BOOKS THE DAY THE ESSAY TOPICS ARE ANNOUNCED FFFUUUUUUU-
Ahem. Yes. Anyway. In lighter news, my boyfriend finally turned 18 on Wednesday, which was lovely. We have once again entered the six months of the year during which we are both the same age, the only difference being that he still has to finish Year 12 haaaaaaaaaaa.
Okay that’s more than enough. I’m only writing this post to procrastinate from researching. I’ll see you in a week! I promise!
Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak!

I agree about the marking. I too am filling quite grim about my chances of getting a H1 this semester, which sucks because I was thinking about law school glory.
Bummmer.
Ah, yes, I think many of us have encountered the “everyone else is so much smarter/enthusiastic than me”, nothing quite like a lecture hall full of self-conscious first-years desperately trying to project an image of smartness/enthusiasm to throw you off. Don’t let it fool you =p You’re one of them/they’re one of you.
(And incase you were wandering, the ones who are not trying to project an image of smartness are trying to project an image of having an interesting social life.)
