SCARY EXAM STRESS DREAM

www.seconddrawdown.com

Omg I had a scary exam dream where I was doing my Euro100 exam and for some reason Bilsim was also doing her Accounting exam which was only worth 4% and I was trying to write an essay while everyone else was TALKING and my PHONE WAS IN MY POCKET when this French woman in a wetsuit comes to the front of the room and starts lecturing in French about the terrarium of slimy animals. I didn’t finish and forgot to do a question…

I think exams are stressing me out…

A Saturday Off

It’s study break and everyone is studying their brains out and today I. Did. Nothing. Take that life.

It’s four in the morning girl, and I have to go…

It’s not quite four in the morning, but that doesn’t stop the fact that I’m actually at Uni (at the AIESEC office, surprise, surprise).

Today was the last day of semester one 2010 and it has actually been epic.

One: It was the last day of semester.

Two: I did an oral test that I didn’t completely screw up.

Three: I went with Firdos to BDSC to ask Mr Leach about interns presentation who was very willing to help out.

Four: We went back to Uni and had ICX meeting.

Five: Had a 2015 meeting for AIESEC.

Six: Had an LC Bonding event which involved 3 hours of lasertag from 10pm-1.00am.

Seven: Went with half EB/EBe to the airport to pick up the Polish girl who is working on MC at 1.30am.

Eight: Went to Auckland Domain with packets of NZ food and had a weet-bix eating competition on the steps of Auckland Mueseum.

Nine: Came back to the office where I am sitting right now.

OMG. Today has been so interesting and quite epic. I love how spontaneous life can be. I didn’t really imagine that I would’ve done so much today. Possibly one of the most interesting and full on days ever. 3.58am. All I want is shower and bed. Hoorah.

There are just some days

There are just some days that I want to so badly to arrive that I can’t stop thinking about them. This day right now is the 28th of May when my freaking essay will be finished and I would have done the test for Torts Law.

Of course it’s my own fault for not having finished the essay earlier and I’d rather be busy than bored and I’d rather be dead than bored but I’m starting to freak out because I have no idea how I’m going to fit everything in today… or the rest of the week… I keep thinking to myself that I need to relax and not stress about this essay so much but this is hard when all of a sudden there’s no time left and all I want to do is write blog posts about how freakin worried I am. To be honest this has been completely brought upon myself, the stress right this second can be attributed to the caffeine I had. I think I’m going to avoid coffees, even though they are like magic in liquid form.

4 days to go!!!

ergh…!

I kind of love, kind of hate the fact that I’m really busy. I kind of wish I had stayed in bed this morning though. I also kind of wish that I had started my European Studies essay earlier or that I had a topic which I didn’t find so semi-good/semi-bad. Hm. Methinks that I’m going to have to finish half of it today… yes. Good job, Novia. Arrrrrrgh. Soooo tired and filled with soup and coffee. I really wish I were in bed. Oh man. That would be amazing. Asleep. Why did I wake up this morning?

All in a rush…

I live like a million miles away from uni which has several annoying consequences but the one I’m going to bitch about today is the fact that I have to spend forever on the bus. This has never really phased me before but I have recently realised what a bitch it actually is:

Ok so first I have 8 o clock starts in the morning Monday, Wednesday and Friday. So, in order to get there early enough I have to catch a bus that leaves either 6.20am or 6.40am in order to get to uni in time and not need to walk into class late. I normally take the earlier one cos the bus is not as full and cos Lud and I like to have enough space so we get seats together. It takes 10mins to get to the bus stop. I leave the house at 6.10am. By the time that I get changed and have breakfast I’ve already used more than half an hour to get ready. SO! Naturally on Monday, Wednesday and Friday I wake up at 5.30… wait:

5.30am

5.30AM!!!

WHAT THE HELL?! But if I wake up any later I will actually not make the bus (which takes around an hour to get to uni)… ARRRRGH! For example: today I felt like sleeping in, not getting to uni until my class at 11… ok. Sweet, awesome sleep in. If I want to get to class early enough to get a seat I’ll have to get there before 11, this means that I can’t catch the 10am bus, but havta catch the 9.40am bus. This means I have to leave the house at 9.20am (cos this bus stop is a bit further away) which means I have to wake up at 8.40am… this is a wonderful sleep in compared to usual rush, but the most retarded point is I have to work out how many hours before my class actually starts at what time I have to wake up… The rule is starttime-2.5 hours…

Not only that, it takes forever getting home. I’m usually absolutely knackered and just want to crawl into bed once I get home after the FIFTY MINUTE bus ride…

I HATE LIVING SO FAR AWAY FROM UNI!

I’m going to uni now, I’m pretty sure I’ll have to wait forever for the bus because they don’t come so often after 8. But I refuse to run for the bus today.

This is why today is awesome:

  • I typed up a week’s worth of Criminal Law notes.
  • I went through last week’s Chinese readings.
  • I sorted out my CV.
  • I wrote a cover letter.
  • I filled out the IC Assistant and Starbucks application forms.
Ok, this doesn’t sound like much but I feel like I’ve done SO much work and it has given me an immense feeling of satisfaction. I think I just woke up on the right side of the bed. Hopefully tomorrow will be as productive! Normally weekend-days at home involves me sleeping and avoiding work. So hoorah for this magical day! Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I had lunch for breakfast and breakfast for lunch… The secret to an awesome working day.

There are some things that I really shouldn’t do. One of these things is bitch and moan about my parents because it just makes me angry and horrible. I’m really not in a fantastic mood. I don’t feel like doing anything. I just want to go back to bed and sleep. Unfortunately I’m already at Uni and have Torts in 25 minutes. Sometimes I look at people and ask myself how they can be so happy or hardworking all of the time when all I can do is bitch and moan. I think one of the contributing reasons to my horrid mood is the fact that I pretty much spent all weekend at home which= too much time with the parents. It’s like all the energy has been sucked out of my body and all I want to do is collapse on the table and close my eyes until something interesting comes along. This sounds really depressing but it’s how I really feel. I think I’m going to buy a monthly pass for my bus card and just start coming into town everyday so I don’t have to be at home.

I want to be at home now. So I can go to bed.

You know what sucks…

… when you study for a test only to find that the test has been postponed.

… when you go to uni without a jacket thinking it’ll be warm and it isn’t.

… when you say you’ll do something and then don’t.

… when your mum comments on how strangely wrinkly your fingers are.

… when keep forgetting you have tutorials to prepare for.

… when you don’t have enough money to top-up on the day your txt2000 renews.

… when your uncle blames your weight for the reason you don’t have a boyfriend.

… when your parents don’t understand how important something is to you.

… when your lunch sucks.

Realisations:

I realised today that I will automatically dislike anything that Mum buys for me, especially clothing. I will find all of the stuff I don’t like about it and think nothing about the good side of it. This understandably annoys/hurts my mother. If it were any other person I might even like the same item of clothing. Someone doing a major in psychology should look into this.
