Random Writings

Obviously its nearly Christmas, hence nearly exams, so I'm (not) studying. I did make my bebo page very festive, which I think is a higher priority. I think my Christmas shopping is pretty much finished, hurrah! All done through the laziness of online ordering. I can justify it to myself if I say I wanted to avoid the stress of normal shopping, when in reality I wanted to avoid the stress of getting out of my chair. Sad news.
On a similar note though, I have been exercising more, and eating more healthily, so in a way, doesn't that even things out? Yes, yes it does.
I've managed to accidentally start watching Eastwick on the Hallmark channel (where I live most week days), and its actually pretty fun.



I need a life.

Yes, I managed to squeeze into 3rd year, first time ever. No idea how I managed, but I'm not complaining.
Designated degree, which means theres a 0.00000012334% chance that I could still get into honours, so everything's crossed.
Although, uni starts tomorrow, and I don't know anything, as the last 2 years are a blur. Eek. I wonder if I'm the only one this happens to. At the start of each new year, all the information from the last one magically disappears.

Also, back from holiday in Turkey, which was awesomeness. All inclusive means drinks aplenty. So heres a not quite sober but surprisingly not drunk photo:



Enjoy.

The important ones are this Friday, and yes, I'm procrastinating as usual. Why is everything so much more interesting than what I have to study?
I'm watching my weight yet again, and logging my calories is taking up way more of my time than it needs to. I'm also watching Monk, which I'm sure isn't too productive. It is fun to try and watch Captain Stottlemyer (sp?) and not think of him playing Jame Gumb in Silence of the Lambs, dancing about, tucking it in.
I'm trying not to think about what will happen if I don't pass these exams, namely I'll need to drop out of uni or resit second year, and I don't really have the finances for that. OR I can work at McDonalds.
Soooo anyway, I'm still sore from the accident, which is highly annoying, and I havent wanted/brought myself to sit in the driver's seat of a car since. Its been two weeks, and I feel silly, but it does make me feel a bit sick. I'm supposed to be a big girl
Something to cheer us up?



Thats better.

...but for some reason, I'm not.
I think its because I'm struggling to get motivated with this designated degree thing. Although, technically, if I pass my resits I'll have a gpa of 11, which is enough for honours, but anatomy is already too overprescribed. Oh well. I can only do my best, and see what happens.
Maybe I should turn off the Simpsons for a start. Its hard though, its an old episode and I've just laughed out loud at Homer trying to trap a rabbit, even though I've seen it a hundred times before. I'm such a big kid.
Officially moved in with the other half, after unofficially living here since pretty much February, which is cool. Big kid in a grown up's body.

In other news:
Old people suck

Lock up your grandmothers.

I should really be either studying or going to buy bread and other basics since there are none, but sitting here seems like a better idea. Maybe topped off with some coffee.
