full steam ahead

lunch with the dean was interesting... it was more snacks of little things that mostly contained the remains of what was once an animal, hence i resorted to the freshly squeezed juices on offer. there were many a contributing folk around and one individual who has somehow managed to steel my thunder all year round, crawl up an arse and muster an invite... yeah it is all about who u know...

with lunch over, the final day of term officially over, what remains of my life is also officially over. i have spent almost every waking minute in the library trying to assimilate what i thought was knowledge and keep hitting blanks.

the beautiful time table that a certain someone drew up for me has subsequently been ruined due to my incompetence. i forgot to add my first subject to be examined into the schedule before handing it over for tabulating my study hours and hence i am now short 3 slots for 1 of my subjects. some shuffling ad nauseum got me the day to write the exam (a necessary), a swop with this subject for that but left with no solution as to how to slot in these3 left out sessions. lets hope i don’t need them...

the bell rang 5 hours earlier than i anticipated in the library. it appears they will be operating on a different calendar to us. while our exam study week has begun, because the prelims are still in lectures they have chosen to follow the prelim schedule and will only switch over to the study week schedule 3 days before the final years start writing their exams. no amount of indications of rules and schedules and amendments could persuade this sadistic bitch to come around and keep the learning space that enables access to the course material that aren't accessible off campus open during the times that they are expected to keep during study week. This means that 5pm during the week it will shut, it will only open at 10am on a Saturday and Sundays they will be closed she smiled sweetly. karma wench is waiting for you!

so i am entering the zone, snapping left right and centre and making everyone around me a little less comfortable as i attempt to combat the nose dive that my tail spin has left me in...
