Losing My Religion by Glee

Brand new Blogger interface. Not sure if I like this yet, because pictures have replaced the normal function names... So its a wee bit confusing. Hopefully I will come to enjoy it? I need to shake up my world a little now and then to make sure that I don't get too complacent. Blogger has been one of those things that has not changed much since ages ago so I guess it was high time I learnt to navigate something new. Seriously need to make sure that the learning ability of my brain isn't adversely affected by the crazy hours I spend on unproductive things.

School is scary as usual. Readings creep up on you, and the next thing you know, the readings that you need to do are thicker than the amount of paper any normal file could store. I should take a photo and show it to everyone. Its really something shocking! I did expect to work but the sheer amount in 4 weeks... Really unexpected. On my to do list would be something like :

1) Corporate Reporting Chapter 5&6 (which is about 100 odd pages OMG) and tutorials (around 30 long questions SO DEAD)
2) IEA readings (OMG this is one is crazy)
3) FIIM readings and tutorial x2
4) Study for Negotiation exam (DIE not started on anything, I dont even have the freaking TEXTBOOK), write Negotiation report (ARGH)
5) Corp Reporting Readings (I can probably survive this?)

Shoot. I think I have been relaxing a wee bit too much. Just realised that the amount of work that I have pending is quite a lot compared to previous years. The mad thing is that we have yet to start on projects, so I think the second half of this semester is likely to be crazy insane. Main concern at the moment would probably be Negotiation as the final test is in 2 weeks! In class. I have no idea what kind of test it will be, but my concern is that it is very textbook dependent, which is likely to be the case as classes have mostly been negotiation practices. Okay. So dead. I ought to start studying. Maybe I should start by buying the book. Not much time to procrastinate and pretend that I have another 7 weeks before needing to worry about my finals. Time flies even when I am not having fun. 

Not that things are that bad? I guess there are bits of happiness in my life, such as meeting friends and teasing my brother? Classes are generally pretty interesting, and for once, the only problems I really have are with my laptop and my school account. First world problems that makes me sound like a whiny and useless spoilt brat but... Its kind of the truth? I really am useless when it comes to technology. Software is still manageable, unless you're talking about Excel which is kind of my worst enemy, but hardware plus settings puts me way out of my league. I'm more of the Victorian/ Romantic era kind of person. I can live fine with my stationery, except I would probably miss YouTube and other videos. Sad eh? To be such a tech noob at my age and in this kind of era...

I often feel strange recently. Maybe its the fact that I'm going to move away from the place that I have called home for the past 6 years of my life? And it has been some of the most formative years, where your character and other finishing touches on your personality is cemented. Not sure what it would be like to move back, except that I would probably lose the high ceiling that I have come to love? I'm not really and outdoor-sy person, but I have enjoyed listening to the birds in the morning? Chirping after resting at the plants... Annoying, but beautiful at the same time? Something to remind you that even though you're still in bed, the rest of the world is up and about and not the least shy to shake you up. Still, I suppose my new home would be somewhere with its on perks? I look forward to finding a nice new spot to bask and laze in the afternoon? Not like this is something I should be thinking of when I have sooo much backlog, but I think its the little things like this that allow me to live day by day. Looking for the little bit of happiness to make me smile, instead of being greedy and demanding complex things that might not even truly satisfy me.

I'm such a high maintenance girl aren't I?
