Clean clothes!

Clean clothes are just wonderful aren't they?

I have enough clothing to last me *almost* two weeks without washing. =) Of course that doesn't mean I actually go two weeks without doing any washing, BUT I could. (Ok...maybe I have gone one two-week stint, but I am in uni and have lots of assessment due ok?!)

But I did my washing this morning, and it is a wonderful feeling to have clean dry clothes!! Of course the feeling would be nicer if I had clean dry *folded* washing, but still.

I have to go soon!

oh no!! have to go shower so i can go and catch the bus...mayeb I'll write mo later!!

Maxwell's Occupational what?!

How is it possible to remember something for so short a time as an exam, and then promptly forget it?

Yes, my first exam was today!! It was a very scary experience, and I stayed up far far too late last night trying to cram. My big problem was that it's rather difficult cram when you're not sure what to cram.

SO! I just wrote notes and tried to cram whatever seemed relevant to the course. I got to the exam and...

Well, I answered all the questions!! Of course, anyone who knows how easy it is for me to dig big holes while i'm talking would know that that isn't necessarily a good sign, but at the end I felt as happy as the babies on the side there!

*yawn*

Mum and dad are calling later otherwise I'd go straight to bed! (Ok ok I lie...I would stay up to catch NCIS) =)

Well, I'm still yawning and tired and can't think straight so I think I will call it quits for now!

Eating without Sharon is no fun

*sigh*

This can once again only be short, because I have to go study for my exam tomorrow, which I am slightly worried about. OT is turning out (the actual OT subject, not the whole course) to be much more...hmm...'airyfairy'...as in it's not so very concrete as I'd like. I don't like it whne there's more than one answer to something because it means I can never be sure that my answer was correct until I get my marks back. =(

Sharon just came and spent a wonderful weekend with me doing therapy sessions (just realized we dind't do the masque!! It will just have to wait till next time!! Make it soon!!!) And we took some photos (lots n lots actually) and so here are some of my flat. =)

So, obviously my kitchen, then my fridge (which I did myself and love dearly) then my lounge room, no there's not normally two beds in there but we decided we wanted to sleep in front of the TV and be able to watch TV first thing in the morning too so we moved the beds from my spare room onto the floor! =) (They're VERY comfy too!) And then the last is obviously me with the drinks for dinner on Friday night.

Chug A Lug is the song Sharon and I couldn't stop listening to and laughing at over the weekend. =) Roger Miller, very old, but very amusing! Haha, have you learnt all the words yet?! I'm still working on them...(mey n this uther foool besayd mee)

But my food beckons, even tho like I said it's no fun without Shaz. =( Not to mention study!!

Shin splints and Jerome

I have the latest version of Messenger thanks to Jerome!! Haha! Thank you Jerry, I am eternally greatful!!

I also have shin splints. Or at least incredible pain whenever I walk shooting through my shins with every movement.

*sigh*

I'm getting old.

Sharon's coming over tomorrw! I can't wait!! We're going to have a weekend of incredible fun and good times! I can't wait for you Shazza!

I thin kI will give up this sad, sad writing and instead give my undivided attention to the Gilmore Girls (and playing around with my new version of messenger!)

Till you can have my full attention,

G.

Aaagh! Grace...Help me!

Where to start?? Too much to say.

Well, first off, I am officially a uni student. I have had the freakout for an assignment (alright I'll be honest...it was two) and had 48 hours straight with practically no sleep (less than 2 hours). Assignments were finished...thanks in at least some part to helperrrrs. =) (You know who you are and what I'm saying) =P

Personal Memo -> don't take help from people who aren't *quite* sober. The answers just don't fit.

=)

And then went out to celebrate.

That is why it was a full 48 hours...more actually cos I got up at 3am thursday morning and got home after 3am Saturday morning...it was interesting. To be totally honest I practically passed out after one *small* drink because I was exhuasted!

*sigh*

Dad came back on the 3rd of April because it was his mum's 60th on the 7th and we had a family dinner to celebrate on the 5th...the saturday after 48 hours no sleep...and after that on Saturday i only got about 3 1/2 hours anyway, so I was a mess. =) Thank God for makeup.

=)

It was a lovely time on Saturday night! Happy Birthday Nanna!

Then on Monday I went to Brisbane to catch up with Sharon. We had a ball!! I love you Shaz. =) Very special times...blur, anger, memories were all had in moderation but we're saving the big lot for ANZAC weekend right dear??! *wink*

Tuesday -> Dad came up from Blackbutt, and spent a week with me. That was fun...we got almost all of mum's (very loong) list done.

I'd never had a shot in my life (as in needle in arm...) and so when i went for my hep b I almost freaked out...was laid on the bed and given jelly babies to calm me down. No really I do not lie!!

It hurrt.

*sniff*

Then on the weekend we were in Brisbane for my First Aid course...I passed it, and hear I'm in strife for not getting 40/40 *shudder* do your darndest! =)

And now I'm back.

Uni's started again, after the one week mid sem break. Horrible. =) But I will survive..come on!

So that is to today...in short form...

More later. =)

oh yes!

That's right! I was in a break for first aid and I got a message, reading the following:

Aagh! Grace I'm making French toast and I can't remember if you have to put anything in with the eggs! Help me!

I laughed and told my darling sister (who if you're reading this, i love you!) what to do. and that I was in a course, and she wrote back saying:

Thankyou so much! I love you heaps and I'm sorry I completely forgot about your class and couldn't imagine that you had anything better to do than to tell me how to make French toast! Sorry!

I love you my dear, and hearing from you just about made my day. =)

Dawn

Dawn is breaking outside my window.

It's bautiful...the morning star is still shining brightly and a fat cresent moon is still showing. The sky is beautiful shades of blue and apricot.

I should be in bed sleeping, however, if I was in bed sleeping it would mean that I had finished my assignment(s)...which I have not. I got home last night planning a huge night of study, but then thought I'd do better if I slept for a while and then got up super early.

SO! 3:00am my phone went...I roled over thinking hmm...wonder why that went off?? and why does it sound like my alarm?? Oh well...turned it off and made a mental note to self to make sure I got out of bed as soon as the alarm went off.

Eyes closed and almost asleep...

Enh???

Oh darn.

Alarm *has* gone off love...that is what woke you up...

Drat.

(face buried in pillows 'double drat!! Maybe half an hour...maybe get up at 5:00??')

3:08 and I bravely started pulling on layers of warm clothing...kettle on...huge cup of strong coffee and milo...

And here I am. Still not finished...but closer. Headachy, too much coffee, too much chocolate, (leave the study fuel ok?!) I shall have to spend lots of time on this today...probably most of tonight as well..but that doesn't matter does it?!

(Well actually, to be totally brutally honest, it does.)

BUT we put on the brave face and soldier on! If it doesn't kill us it makes us stronger! (dyin here people!!!)

Sigh. Time to go back to labour of...no not labour of love...labour of...force.

Maybe later...if I'm awake...when can I sleep???
