Dec 25
So this is Christmas...
Well as the title states it is indeed finally Christmas so Merry Christmas to everyone on HNZ
First of all, what the hell happened me?I've gone over a month without one entry. There was a few times I felt like it and I had the window open, heck there was a few times when I even had a few words down, but I just couldn't bring myself to write anything
For a while there I was going through a complete RPing funk, I couldn't bring myself to do replies to anything and when I did they weren't even that good. Around the same time I was just down in general, it was so bad even mum noticed I was down
I don't know what was wrong but I'm got out of it soon enough and was back to myself again
So a recap since November 6th(?) Well Uni went on normal as it could. Did a few more assignments and I did my first proper Uni examI was soooo nervous, I was seriously shaking but the first question put a smile on my face because it was one thing my group kept on going over and I got confirmation from my lecture that it was right, as a few different groups were coming up with different answers so yay we were right
The first half of the paper wasn't too bad but the second half was hard-ish, I knew the answers but I don't think I did enough for full marks, but as long as I pass that's fine by me
Speaking of passing I'm proud to say that to date I have passed all of my assignments (written and practical) and my presentations were all a success!
So now I have to worry about my exams to see if I can go through to second semester
So I finished Uni on Dec 11th, and from the moment I stepped out of the restaurant I was so busy (Oh and yeah I got a £16 tip that day) with speaking to some of the staff I would be friendly with and other lectures I sorta know, I spent well over an hour just talking to them
Did a few stuff around Belfast and then I went back to my flat and I started to pack to go home for the holidays. Dad got me and we went home
When I got in I got something to eat and rang my best friend, who I hadn't seen in over a month
So I went to her house, stayed the night and had a blast
Came home the next day, got ready for mass, after mass went to a line dancing dinner dance (had a blast again
) On Sunday I had a friend over so I could help her with some work. Monday I had a bit of a break then line dancing
Then Tuesday I had my graduation from tech. It was an awesome day, seeing ones from my class again, we were all sitting together and had the biggest giggling fit, all good
On Wednesday I started work. So I now work in Savile Row Shirt Co, in the call centre based in NI. It's an ok job, the money is good but the hours suck. I've worked almost everyday since last week, apart from Saturday (when I had to go see my granny) and Tueday (when I started revision) I got off yesterday for Christmas and I don't start again until the 4th Jan when I go live on the phone system
Kinda nervous
And this now brings me on too my exams. So I have 3 exams to do after Christmas, on the 5th, 11th and 13th, they all start at 9:30 and last for 1:30hrs - 2hrs :uberyawn: Work has me on EVERYDAY from 9-8 and on Sundays 11-6 for 3 weeks starting the 4thCan someone care to tell me when the hell I'm supposed to find time to revise?
I mean come on, that's damned near impossible, home around 9 each night to revise for probably an hour before I pass out froom tiredness
No one seems to care about this, I've complained about it to my family and they are all, 'you'll have to find the time', 'give over it's not like you're the only one who has done this!'
Well maybe not but for my first time doing exams in 3 years AND the fact they are Uni exams I'm allowed to stress over this. Chris (who also works in the same place as me) says I can bring my books with me and revise but I don't know how my bosses would take to that seeing as they have seen me on HNZ twice
(but it was during my break) and on the BBC news site once (again during my break) and they weren't happy about it. Because they expect me to go over the same stuff ALL the time. I've repeated the same crap, I know what I'm doing, plus it gets really boring doing it over and over again so SORRY for having a sanity break
So if they see me with books in front of me, I don't think they'll take too kindly to it
Anyway, I'll worry about that when it comes. I don't want to do any revision until Christmas is over as I want some sort of break, it is my break so that makes sense right? Well as I said at the beginning it's ChristmasSo far it's been a good day, bare in mind it's only shortly after 1PM, many many things could go wrong
So I got up at 8 for mass came home and opened my presents
Now I wasn't too excited about this yer because we are soooo low on money it's unreal, so I knew I wouldn't be getting much. All I knew I was getting was the Wicked Years Series by Gregory Maguire to help with my Wicked obsession. And I am OBSESSED with the songs now (again
) My currents favs are as follows (in no order):
So anyway, I got the books so I was happy with that. I also got:
- No good deed
- I'm not that girl
- Dancing through life
- As long as your mine (Just for this moment)
- Thank Goodness
- Defying Gravity
- One short day
So I was very happy with what I got this year
- Mamma Mia DVD (finally
I've been wanting that for ages) And it came with a hardback journal and pen
- 17 Again
- HSM 3
- Bandslam
- HP 6
- Dan Brown's - The Lost Symbol (that one was a complete surprise even though I've made it known I want it and Chris kinda of seemed weird when we saw an advert for a show about it yesterday - it crossed my mind but I though nothing off it
)
So the rest of the day will consist of me finishing the laying of the table. This has been passed on to me this year because I work in the restaurant at Uni and when we went to the Christmas dinner dance I was pointing out how things were wrong and the waitresses were doing things wrong, it drove my family crazy
Soup will be served around 2. Dinner around 3-3:30. Then lounging about for a while (probably on HNZ
) And with all the new DVDs I shall be watching some of them. My and Chris will probably go around to mums room or the sitting room and watch HP6 and Family Guy Season 8 which he got. Also the Dr. Who Special will be on later
Soo can't wait for that
I think I'll have dessert with that...
So I think that's me all caught upAs ever there are a few anticdotes that I either can't remember or be bothered typing out
But that's the gist of it. I may make another entry sometime soon but then again don't hold your breath
Revision will start soon and before I know it, it'll be the 4th of Jan and so will work. A word of warning to whoever reads this, come the 4th I may be a little bit scarse around the site, when I'm at work I'll be busy but I'll try and come on during break then with revision in between I'm going to be busy, but I'm not going to disappear, never worry
So I need to finish laying this table, hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. And I'll talk to you all soonPat :glomp:
