When will life be bloggable again?

I haven't blogged for what feels like ages. So much to do, so little time. Exams are really near now, and I think I've decided to stop being afraid and just do my best. To my delight, I've discovered that studying Literature all day long is not so bad, especially compared to last semester when I was studying Linguistics all day long. This has unfortunately led me back to reconsidering changing to B.A., yet I know that this is impossible if I want to keep studying German and still have an Honours degree. Bureaucracy... Blah!

The past few days since I blogged have been relatively calm and quite productive- I kept studying though I'm still going slower than I wish to. My dear brother told me it is because I'm still learning the university way of studying... Oh well, we'll see.

Today I really have nothing much to report- seems I've lost the spark needed to make mundane life interesting and bloggable! (new word! lol!) The only reason I'm blogging is that I need a break from studying AND i need to rediscover my ability to make life bloggable (mission failed). The most exciting thing that happened to me in the past few days was my dear best friend Andrea's nineteenth birthday, on the occasion of which we had the first girls' afternoon out in ages:-D. The second most exciting thing that happened was that on Monday I officially became an irrational Keane fan by spending my hard-earned cash on a magazine just because there was an article about their cherubine-faced frontman's drug addiction in it .(please note -In my realm, money was made to be spent on clothes, travelling and kinder bueno, period.) Anyways, I read the article and spent the whole afternoon all sad and depressed. Gosh, I guess I really love those guys! Anyways, you can kind of realise, life's not exactly enthralling at the moment.

Another quite remarkable event was my attendance to the USTA (the student-teacher association) AGM. Now, this is very uncharacteristic of me, firstly it's because I'm a lazy, happily uninvolved bum and secondly it's because the Faculty of Education and the teaching profession does not exactly make my heart flutter with joy. The only reason I attended this very boring function was that two dear course-mates of mine were contesting the election for the executive, and I wanted to vote for them. There was nothing particularly wrong about the AGM but nothing particularly right either, and my heart is still not fluttering with joy. The experience ended with some stuck-up second year killjoy telling me that half my English B.Ed group will not make it to second year, a statement which was followed by much glaring on my side and a burning desire to unleash the Laguna Biotch within me. Some people really need to get a life. Thankfully, my dear friends both got elected :-D.

This particularly long (and particularly unexciting) blog has stretched till the end of my study break, and has finally come to an end. (Rejoice!) I apologize for boring you out of your wits, but i needed to ramble a bit, and even literary giants have their off-days ;p (joking, I promise!)

Till next time,
Take care,
Lizzy

Nice to see you come back to blogging :)

Yarr, life during exams tends to be slow at best. But good to hear you got out a little. Vitamin D is important!

Anyhow, don't worry, I'm sure you're going to do epically :D

Take Care ;)

Very eerie and odd coincidence: just before I read your comment, I'd just finished studying the epic!!! (epically-epic, you see the connection?) Lol! You doctors have scary mental powers.
Take care you too :)
