The Institution of Bus Blogging


Originally Uploaded here
Well, my week ended, a constant and seemingly never ending string of havetos. Tuesday, I got off school and realised that, for the first time in over a week straight, there wasn't something that absolutely had to be done that moment. So I went to my parents' and did...

nothing

It was fantastic. Then met up with my brother and we went to see the film Lord of War which was a very welcome surprise. Very low key film about an arms dealer that was as well filmed as it was political. I wasn't expecting to like it, but the camera-work was really really nice. Some of the shots were just stunning, and the art direction was, frankly, suberb. I strongly advise seeing it at some point.

I didn't get to bed at a reasonable hour, sadly, and my continued modus operandi of little sleep and less food is still going strong. My friends are going out to the Brickyard tonight, and I would really love to go, but it simply cannot be. The amount of work I have before me is rather overwhelming.

The worst part of that is the 1.5 credits Honours Seminar is taking more time than all my other classes combined. Which feels like an extra kick in the nuts as it has already been the source of so much stress entirley unrelated to the workload. Other than that, I have a Philosophy essay due on Tuesday that I am not even aware of the topic. sigh I'll find out on Thursday, it's not like I don't have other work to do.

Another STATA assignment due for Friday, that Philosophy essay for next Tuesday, an hour long presentation on an economics paper for next Thursday, and the last STATA assignment for next Friday. This isn't including any catch-up reading or studying I need to do the midterms that are probably going to start the week after that. Not to mention the travel pack session for Garou I need to plan, or the Moot for the end of the Month, or the three downtimes I need to process. Or to mention any line memorising I need to do for R&G.

See? My life is a bulleted list. Things haven't changed much.
