So where do I want to be?
Week 10 of the semester = crunch time. So of course it's logical that this is the time of semester that all the non-uni-related aspects of my life go crazy. It couldn't be any other way.
Alternative title for this entry: Murphy's Law Governs My Life. In fact, maybe that should just be the name of my blog.
Right now I'm at uni with a pile of books on Australia-United States relations sitting beside me, waiting to be read and turned into an essay by Friday. Two hours ago I had a group meeting for another subject where we decided we would finish a market analysis and begin on a creative strategy for our assignment by the end of this week. In one email account I have an SOS message from my best friend and in another I have a message from the head journalism mentor asking me for my help in orientating (word? it is now) some Singaporean students who arrived in the country 48 hours ago. Who do I give my time to? Priorities suck!
The place I really want to be is at Trina's house letting her debrief and finding out what the hell is going on. But I feel like I should go home and work on one of the million pieces of assessment I have to complete in the next couple of weeks.
Oh gosh... I've got to go to work tomorrow too.
This comes back to the upbeat, jovial little article I wrote back in Week 3 joking about how I always say yes to stuff. It's gotta bite you eventually, so it might as well be when you can least accomodate it, right?
I know this sounds like I'm whinging, but I'm not. Just... venting. And I also don't want it to sound like I resent my friends because I truly don't. I just currently resent the things that are holding me back from being there for them when they really need it!
Well it's time for me to go and do something, one way or the other.
Will fully intend to keep you updated but most likely won't,
