The tired, tired student :)

So, I owe you all a post. Here it is;

So for the last 3.5 weeks, I've been doing orientation. Where do I even start. The first week of training was stellar! At the end of the week we all went out and partied (I always wanted to experiance being a real student, and whoa, it was awesome). I got totally wasted and licked a seriously HOT gay guy - alot. OMG. Embarassing but awesome. Wez thought it was hilarious. I made some really REALLY awesome friends - feel so close to them :)

Then orientation started (programme 1), and our world's FELL APART, by Wed we were EXHAUSTED and could possibly have murdered each other. Tensions were high!!! So week one of orientation done and dusted - we all go home for a rest and a chill.

Now first two days of further training before programme 2a&b. We were TENSE, then orientation started again, and we chillaxed abit - our team jelled thanks to the intense schedule. By the end of programme 2a&b, we were stuffed. i.e. this Tuesday (8th)!! We're coming together Friday for debrief and drinks. Through everything, I still love this bunch, and they have made my university experiance AWESOME. I WILL BE DOING THIS AGAIN NEXT YEAR!!!!!!!! (Plus I get paid 4 grand!).

Ok, that brings me to today. A nightmare of note. O-week nearly killed me. Had a full day shift on Jammie Plaza for Varsity Newspaper in the HEAT (in a tiny t-shirt obviously designed for a chinese midget). MELT. BUT I got to see Bri-Bri (my sexy gay-guy I love to perve over - and he knows it - bastard! lol).

So that brings me to the line up for the next couple of days. Subbing Thurs 10th, Debrief + bday party Fri 11th, Ratanga party Sat 12th, full subbing day Sun 13th, 1st day of Lectures and final subbing Mon 14th, Paper released and newsgathering Tues 15th, Wez comes back midnight Wed 16th, Wesley's bday Thurs 17th, possible party for Wez Fri 18th, Varsity writer's workshop and Mom's bday Sat 19th, Barnyard theatre with parents (for mom bday) on Sun 20th, brother-in-law bday Mon 21st, friend's bday Tues 22nd, subbing Thurs 23rd, friend's bday party Fri 25th, V bday party Sat 26th<3 (and another friend's bday!), full day subbing Sun 27th, etc You get the idea. Ow, my brain hurts now.

Only freaking out a little.

Plus super fun admin shit at home such as a little matter of black bin THEFT. Yes, some fucker stole our BIN!!!!!!!!!!! WTF. And FML. Had to sort that out plus two outstanding bills (polite smses of hatred from the respective companies).

Good news is I am now seeing psych. at student wellness for 115 BUCKS! vs. R1500 or something. Still on meds and things look good...

So that's THAT.

Except, did I forget to mention I have classes in there somewhere too? Oh and I joined dayhouse, WineSoc and RainbowUCT.

I must be insane.

Over and out.

  1. 1. yes you are insane! hahah
    but that's why we love you :-)
    2. that's a pretty hectic schedule! My only advice is to enjoy the student life, but don't let it swallow you either. You are definately allowed to drop stuff if you need to - do not feel guilty if this happens.
    3. I am thinking of you and know you are amazing and can't wait to see you!
