snippets from my thought processes

Am I the only loser person stuck in front of a computer on a Saturday night?

I'm doing an education essay. Someone save me from my boredom...

I have just emailed off my essay. Bibliography to follow tomorrow (long story) and then I just have to wait for the official verdict.

He had better give me a pass.

I'm feeling alot better today, which is good. Nose has stopped running, lung have stopped trying to leave my body, and even the headache is almost gone. I am sore all over from coughing, but that's to be expected. I'm pretty stoked at how quickly I've gotten better; usually these things drag on for weeks with me. Yay! God rocks!

Mmm...lunch...then a snooze, I think.

...so here's an update.

Uni is over for the semester. YAYZ. Results out 4th July. Which is in a week. OOH. I want to know what I got for ancient history. Oh, and media studies. Considering I never got a piece of assessment back the whole semester. Awesome.

I am currently organising data input for my boss's cervical cancer prevention scheme in Vanuatu. Boring, but interesting. Don't ask me how that works. And don't ask how I managed to get roped into it, either.

Am recovering from sinus infection slowly. Feeling generally better, but sinuses are still giving me headaches, so they're obviously not.

Work is busy, as usual. No change there.

My husband is well. No change there either!

Umm...other than that, there's not a lot, really. Other than the usual catching up with family and friends. And each other. I feel like I haven't seen my husband in months. Not cool.

So yes. The end.

...they really suck at the timetable thing.

They're putting an education lecture right smack in the middle of a Wednesday.

Putting this into context:

- Every single third year Education student has to do this subject in this semester. You cannot go into fourth year without it.
- So far, this rules out at least 2 history subjects. The two I was going to chose from.
- I *told* the lady in charge this last week - that they can't put that lecture on at a popular time like that because no one will be able to do anything.

IDIOTS.

Going to bed now.

Someone remind me why I'm here?

I'm sitting here listening to four people tell me about their lives in the (mostly Brisbane) music/media industry. Two of the four are PhD students. And they're boring as hell. I don't want to have anything to do with the industry, really, so this is intensely boring. Mildly amusing at times, but mostly boring.

This is my final media studies lecture FOREVER. FOR. EV. ER. So exciting.

Ancient History exam this afternoon. Eek. Should probably use this time to study. Yayz.

Did I mention I'm bored?

My ancient history sent us a very confusing email on Friday. Basically, she marked the wrong answer as correct on one of the questions. Thus, the people who got it wrong got an extra half a mark, and the people who got it right didn't.

I got it right, apparently, and got an extra half mark, which put me at 77.5%, which is now a distinction (6) instead of a credit (5).

Yay!

Word count: 2694 (including quotes and bits from poems, which aren't meant to be included)

Real word count: somewhere around 1900-2000, I would guess. Like I'm going to work it out.

To go: section on Keats. Approximately one third of the essay.

*shrugs* Going to be over the word limit. Tough.

It is going well. I am happy. In fact, I am extremely happy.

Coming to you from our brand new, 19" LCD flatscreen. I am in love. And am completely spoiled for all other computers. Except for my mac which is still pretty.

I'm sick. The first time this year. Dammit. I suppose it's good I'm sick now as opposed to in 2 weeks time. But still. Ick.

It's just the usual sinus stuff - I didn't really get enough sleep over the weekend, and my sinuses have been horrible the last week or so, so I should have seen it coming. I didn't feel all that great yesterday evening, so I guess that was my hint.

I'm going to try and take Wednesday off. I only have media studies lecture and tute, and an ancient history lecture. I'm not going to bother with the media studies stuff - it's useless. I'll just get the notes off the net and read the readings. I'll come in for ancient history though. We have a new lecturer for the second half of the semester, so I want to be around for that. I can't really take tomorrow off because I'm working with one of the specialists all day. I'll just sit upstairs and drink hot tea and suck vicks. I don't really have to do anything other than whatever he tells me, which isn't much. I should probably do some scanning or something...ah, I'll sort it out tomorrow. But yay for specialists.

I finished the media studies bibliography thing yesterday. YAY. I just have to hand it in now. I need to do that today otherwise I'll have to be here before 10am on Wednesday, which is what I don't want to do. Must remember.

All I have to do now is English. Yay.

You know you're not 100% when the dimmed lighting in your lecture theatre is too bright. *squints*

I need some sunglasses. Too bright.

Note to self: can miss Media Studies lecture if required, considering he practically read from the slides and we get them after the lecture anyway.

So. Bored.

The stuff is interesting and everything, but seriously; I don't actually *need* to be here. I could be working on my ancient history assignment which I have to get done so I can start my english one which I have to get done so I can do my media studies one. All by April 28. Rockin. I can't start my english one yet because we don't get the topics until April 2. And I have no idea about the media studies one yet.

*sighs* I have alot of work to do.

I have the car today! Yay! It was SO NICE to drive in instead of sitting on a bus and walking and getting hot and waiting and changing busses and blah. Just lovely. And I can drive home and leave when I want and yay.

Oops, lecture starting again. *props eyes open*
