Apologies & General Happenings

I should inform any of those who do not yet know: i suffer from a guilt complex. I'll feel guilty about anything and everything, even if it's really not my fault or anything to be guilty about. This time? I'm feeling bad for semi-abandoning my beloved bloggie! But, really, when i'm juggling a full-time double degree, two jobs and a million other committments, i think i'm justified... i still feel bad though! So, just to re-state; i'm not ditching the blog, i'm just slowing down on the insane number of posts i was doing earlier this year and last year. So don't abandon me! I'll still post.

But now to the nitty-gritty of life at uni. I could go all woe-is-me here and worry about the fact that i know only very few people at uni and am unbelievably snowed under with my workload. But today? I'm all about the positive. I made an aquaintance, who i'm going to force to be my friend, whether he likes it or not :P His name is Felix. Which makes me think of that TV program with the cat. I can get around without getting lost. I understand my Psych lectures!! (Not so much with the law... but oh well) I know two someones properly; one who's in my course and is equally lost as a first year and another who is enjoying being the all-wise third year who can laugh at us when we get lost and get parking tickets - but can also sit with us at lunch. I'm reasonably on schedule - except that i'll have to work my butt off tonight :P Obviously, being on my blog is perfectly reasonable!

Other news? I've got two jobs! And i don't really suck at either! I'm working as a youth intern at church, much to my parents eternal concern (you'd think that after eight years they'd have realised that it's not just a phase), which is lots of work, but i quite enjoy it. Which i think is important in a job. Plus, i'm working at Stateswim. At the moment i'm only training, which means i don't get paid for the work, which makes it less fun. Especially seeing as i'm doing almost double the hours most trainees do. Slave labour, i tell you! But that's quite fun too - the kids are adorable! - so, hopefully i'll get paid eventually and then it'll be good. I'm almost halfway through training! It continues to amaze me just how wrinkly one's fingers can get after three hours in a pool. It's insane to think that the wrinkles can be that big and still not touching the other side. Creepy. They look like miniature brains (which i'll admit is an image that often has me giggling to myself while i'm standing in the pool).

What else is new? Very little actually. We've all become reclusive with work/uni. And i mean RECLUSIVE. As in i've seen people no more than half an hour in weeks!! We finally finished our pressie for out little Sporting Buddy and posted it over - i'll report her reaction asap. It'd better get there by her birthday!

The problem with no longer having a life is that i no longer have much to tell you! I may have to resort to discussing actual issues, which is always much more work! But you're worth it i'm sure :P In the meantime, it's the mundane for you.

By the way, girlies, seeing as i'm so busy and we're all so distant at the moment, if any of you want to help out with a post every now and then, let me know.

Catch you soon!
