Uni student's thread.

[The One Who]

I am ill. So that means no uni work will be getting done until I feel slightly better.

[linder surprise]

i lied before when i said i was nearly finished, that was 2 hours ago.
NOW i am nearly finished. on the conclusion. woweeeeee.

hope you feel better soon claire (?).

[The One Who]

Thanks Linda. I think it might be the start of tonsillitis or glandular fever or something. Great.

Well done for nearly finishing! I know that feeling all too well.

[ksdfjhlksajf]

I've been ill all weekend and now I'm super far behind and stressed out.

I hate midterms.

[Spoons]

*sends tissues and stuff to ill people*
Hope everyone feels better soon!

well done Linda!!
i love that nearly finished feeling
even better having just handed it in and coming away with your receipt! i love that yellow piece of paper.

Took a Simpsons + Hollyoaks break and haven't made it back to work yet. Lol! Need another 250 words to meet today's target which isn't too bad. Then 1,000 more after that to finish it. Yay.

Am watching Panorama which I think might be a bad plan. . .

[Spoons]

i had a simpsons and great british menu break.
then i came to the library to work but here i sit on ryl

i want a functioning lap top damnit.

[linder surprise]

i finished my essay :).
i need to do the bibliography but thats a minor. i actually finished about 90minutes ago & since then have been doing random things on the internet. i have two more to go before the 5th but i think i will take it easy tonight because last night i stayed up til 5:30

[mesmerized.]

well done :)

[sobriquet]

Still not made it back to work. Not good. Might not try too hard for the rest of the evening, just see if I get anything done while I'm sitting at the laptop. Then a couple of days working on presentation and revision, then back to the write-up to finish it. Oh, how I love a plan.

[Spoons]

well done Linda!!!

im ill sad times.
but trying to work.

[The One Who]

I'm trying to work too, but my head is pounding too much and my neck is too sore to even bother trying anymore.

[sobriquet]

Haven't achieved anything today except missing a course overview lecture. Didn't remember till I woke up half na hour after it started. lame.

Have to go drop some questionnaires off at a mates house so can't possibly do work until I've done that. Lol!

*hands out tissues and chocolates to ill people*

[squirrelspit]

[sobriquet]

Lol!

I just went for a walk into town to drop some stuff off with my mate. On teh walk back I let an elderly lady past then her husband let me past so I smiled and said thank you, then some random guy (quite good looking, I have to add) lifted his sunglasses, looked me straight in the eye and said "that was a lovely smile!" *swoons* Lol! Not good - falling for strangers instead of doing work.
After that (which made me feel lovely) I saw ducklings swimming about on the river. :)

Bought some vanilla incense sticks while I was out because I saw in a thread on here (maybe this one, can't remember) that having a certain scent around when you revise means you remember better next time the scent is around what you revised. Sooo . . . I figure it can't hurt to have my room smell of vanilla, then put vanilla essence or something on my wrist before exams so the scent will be in the room with me when I need to remember all the rubbish I'm avoiding learning now. Lol!

Am so tired today - ended up sitting awake till about 3 last night. Had got my bodyclock sleeping from 1 - 8 so ended up oversleeping by a couple of hours this morning which was annoying. Not that I've put much effort into making up for that 'lost time'. Sigh. All the good feeling from my walk is draining from me!

one of which i realised i am completely screwed with, because i haven't done even the basic reading for it.

All the hard work will be worth it in the end Linda bean.

And like, even if you have to work 22/7 (22 because everyone needs sleep) for the next week, you'll look back in a month and just be like.. ok, the fact that i was so exhausted i wanted to curl up and sleep for eternity was worth it.

[Spoons]

dont give up linda, soon it will all be over. you will be free of essays and so relieved!

[The One Who]

Linda keep going. It will be worth it in the end.

Tomorrow I am going up to uni no matter how ill I am. I have done absolutely nothing today. I need to go to go buy a couple of things as well so that gives me a sort of excuse for getting out of the house.

[ksdfjhlksajf]

I just finished the longest 10 page paper of my life on less than 3 hours of sleep.... and now? I HAVE CAFFEINE!!!!!!!

And a project to do.

And a test to study for.

But the caffeine is the most important.
