Procrastination Time!

'Sup y'all!

Another week has passed, and so many memories with it... Okay, I lie a little... Not much happened at all this week really. Just last minute cramming for an exam and an assignment that had a maximum word limit of 10,000; with the minimum being assumed to be at least 5,000.

Ahhh yes... The life of the Queen of Procrastination... As fulfilling as ever!

Yeah, so... Most of last week was spent spending hours in my room telling everyone, and myself, that I was gonna get focused and smash out some work so I'm not doing it all last minute... Nope! HA! ... Spent pretty much all of my time on YouTube instead, or lazing around on my bed... I am a truly horrible Uni student... Like, honestly... I did somewhat suffer when I realised that Biochem required a bit more studying than I initially realised... But I still managed to get most of it memorised; and walked into the exam semi-confident. Only to find that the one or two things I glazed over and/or wouldn't stick in my brain, took up about half of the exam... Oh the joys!

So, once that half hour long exam was over; I decided to treat myself to the day off after cramming the day and morning before it... And, ya know, it's more procrastination so; I wasn't complaining!

So, the exam was on the Friday... And that 10,000 word assignment I was talking about? Well... I basically did the entirety of it over the three days following the exam. I did the first section (worth around 2,000 words) on Saturday morning before heading to work... I then struggled through the second and three quarters of the third through Sunday. I say struggled because I was incredibly tired and lethargic due to lack of sleep and sudden work rush. Like... I don't think I've been this tired in a while. It was somewhat concerning! I literally looked like a zombie, trudging around the house... Dropping things that really should not have been dropped... I even burnt myself making two minute noodles that night when I got back to Uni!

Even though I was more behind on the assignment than I preferred to be at that point; I ended up inviting [K-Dawg] over a little earlier than initially intended (also because my Mum invited him over for dinner, but minor details...), but it was definitely a better choice... I was so tired I doubt much more work would have been completed; and, this way, I got to have some cuddles and uplifting company to perk me up a little before the dreary two hour trip back.
I've been so tired lately I've been falling asleep on [K-Dawg] mid conversation... It's that bad! I don't entirely know the reason for it either... Apart from the fact that I've been messing with my body. Working out in some gym classes, then going without and eating junky food... Then kinda repeating the cycle... Let's not forget that Live Below The Line is next week! And I am currently eating like a horse! Okay... Maybe not that much... But still. A ridiculous amount of food!

So Monday I woke up and finished the last bit of the section I intended on finishing the day before... I then went to lunch (and found that the Anatomy lecture was thankfully cancelled... YAY FOR MORE TIME!) and headed back to my room to smash out the last part... This assignment is for Ecology so... I'd already written about soil, invertebrates (insects to you commoners), and wildlife tracking methods... This last section was about vegetation... Oh the joys! But it had to be done... Oddly enough, I managed to smash out this last section with a rate of around 1,000 words an hour; making the section finished within 2-3 hours. I then spent an hour or so doing up references and the title page; and doing final touch ups and grammar checks... To have it handed in by around 4pm. This was due by midnight that night, and I was expecting to be solidly working up until that point; with how tired I'd been over the past few days and the slow rate I had been completing the other sections... But nope! Something kicked in that day and I was a typing machine. It was amazing! Even a few friends admitted that they were surprised I got it done so fast...
So... It's not exactly the best assignment ever... But it covers pretty much everything she wanted (at least vaguely) so I should definitely get a pass! Which shouldn't be too difficult. I heard a guy handed in 2,500 words last year and scraped a pass... Surely I must be able too with the 7,400 words (ish) I handed in... ^_^

So yeah! I gave myself the rest of the night off and played some Pirates (thank you [K-Dawg] for reminding me about the game I so sorely missed playing) and just relaxed...

Tuesday I spent doing... Well... Nothing... Literally. I skipped all my classes and sat around doing nothing. I told myself I would start on my Anatomy assignment; but it just didn't happen... I've been starting to feel drowsy all the time now, and I'm pretty confident that it is due to the fact that I am doing absolutely nothing with my life currently except sit around and eat way too much Maccas... Seriously... The amount of Maccas trips I've been going on recently is horrendous!

Which brings us to Wednesday... Which I'm still considering as today; but it's kinda past midnight right now so it's kinda Thursday now... So yay for time confusionism!

I woke up at 9am (hey! That's a feat for me currently) and stumbled out of bed... Literally. The lack of sleep I've been getting lately is ridiculous... To get dressed in pants and gum boots to head out to a farm area the University owns to look at... Wait for it... Trees and soil scales! Oh yes! The utter joy I felt trudging through mud and long grass was so immense it was overflowing... Add in the fact that it was ridiculously hot and I was stupid enough to forget sunscreen and a hat and yeeaahhh... It wasn't entirely fun.

I then came back for an Anatomy lecture that I couldn't quite focus in... Why? Because [K-Dawg] sent me a message informing me that LION KING PRESALE TICKETS ARE OUT! ... For VISA card holders, which I am not buuttt... ASDFGHJKL! LION KING! Okay... Now that my feelings have exploded everywhere... Nope, I lie... Still pretty damn excited! But have to wait until Friday (which is only tomorrow if I think about it... Ooooohhhh) until tickets come out for us non-VISA people.

I really don't have much else to discuss at the moment really... I'm currently Skyping with [K-Dawg] as he wears his lion onesie, and I wear my lion ears after watching him play a new surgeon simulator game and watch him finally do a heart transplant after multiple attempts... *Applauds sarcastically* And after receiving an intriguing message from an old friend... I shall go more in depth about this probably in my next blog as I don't really wish to discuss it right now. Mostly because I'm still wrapping my head around it, and it's late... And I really ought to be headed to bed soon rather than going on a mental rant! :P

So... It is with this that I shall take my leave... Until next time folks!
