Realizations

My spelling is still American. Otherwise, I would have spelled realization with an 's'.

It's been a while... I didn't realize I've only posted 4 times. And looking at the dates, I was like is it day, month, year or month, day, year? I was accustomed to the American way (month, day, year) but well I have to adopt to Aussie. I work and I study. I'll be screwed if I don't comply with their standards.

Life's been good and I'm content. Not ecstaticly happy but content. My stress level is my blood level. It has to be up all the time, lest I deteriorate.

This week is Sydney Writers' Week. I'm meant to be volunteering cos I applied and they rang me but I missed their call and I rang them back for like a hundred times and then Miss Meredith went 'Ok, cool! What;s your address?' And then never sent me anything.

I applied cos I thought it would be interesting but I dunno nothing about the current writing scene so I don't really care plus I never got anything in the mail! Could our mailman be stealing mail? I haven't been receiving my bank statements either. Not that I have much in my account but I just confirmed with my bank and they said they've been sending the papers. What the...

I was just swamped with uni(versity) essays. Revenue law was the biggest bomb ever. I had to borrow 3 three-inch thick books from the library so I can read something else other than the poorly-edited required text. I was editing the book as I was reading it and it cost me freaking hundred bucks! But oh well I've handed in my bloody essay, which was bloody indeed.

Just have another one to hand in. A group one. This is the slack group. I'm still taking it easy. I need to breathe a little.

Had so little social life. Or maybe I just don't remember. Dinners are rushed. And the after dinner coffee moments are rather filled with rants (and occassional raves) on the normal grind of life. If only everyone can just chill forever. But then the world will amount to nothingness.

I learn about bad management at work. It is a whole course on its own. I learn the practical way and I use my brain because I have to develop my own plan of attack. You don't learn much about people in uni. And there's also a greater amount of fun that comes with work. Sounds strange but well I still give high regard to the coffee culture.

Can't wait for tuesday. By then I'll have about 3 weeks to chill. =)
