Hell had this special promo sale, one thing led to another and oops I was in another dimention
I haven't blogged in what seems a small eternity and I don't expect anybody to be be paying attention after such an elongated hiatus, but I didn't even have the time and energy to write a farewell note. But for the sake of making a yet another return this is a small recap as to what happened to me.
The exam month started and I had to prepare for four subjects from June 4th-June 22nd today and I think I did a formidable job with the grades: Business English - 6.00; Advanced German - 6.00 [there two were regular classes with no exam]; Sociology - 5.00; Basics of Law - 6.00; Macroeconomics - 6.00 and Theory of Management - 5.00. My estimated average grade for the semester thus stands on 5.66, whereas 6.00 is the highest in our ranking system. With this grade I can apply for scholarship that is paid monthly to all with an average of 5.50 [check] and also have low household income [double check]. So basically what I need to do is apply on time and hope I am poor enough...
I almost ruined my last exam by not showing up on time. It was an appropriate ending to my strange schedule. In my mind I signed this one to start at 11 o'clock, when in fact it started at 8 o'clock. At 7:55 I get a very panicked call that I will totally get screwed, if I didn't materialize in an instant. At 8:10 I was in the campus and whined my way into getting a chance. As it turns out I am disgustingly pathetic while doing so, which meant the woman pitied me enough to let me have a crack on it.
I am also professionally dissatisfied, officially as of June the 1st, when I learned that my colleague also has exams to attend to, but in another city and because of her absence we were reduced to 3 receptionists. This means only one free day, the day you are not feeling like a complete zombie after the graveyard shift. Studying in these conditions drained me completely, but such is life. What bugs me about my job is the huge amount of Russians we cater to. Right now we have 200 rooms brimming with Russian youth from various ages that I detest linguistically. The bummer is that we don't do Russian [nobody speaks it fluently from the reception] and they don't do anything else. Also fuck the notion that since they started off as one language Bulgarians and Russians get each other perfectly. Utter BS. So I am stuck with an impressive amount of people, I can't help... It's like trying to be a pro star athlete with no limbs attached to your torso.
Last but not least is my eye condition, which can be described as massive muscle spams that give the sensation that a hive of bees committed harakiri in your eye balls and lids. They are itchy, dry, sting and feel swollen. Not to mention the merry go round headaches accompanying everything. I have been on eye drop medication for a month or so and the effect has been soothing. I can so read and write and what not.
Anyways this has been my life for like a very long time. Hopefully with exams in the past tense I can just direct my energy elsewhere.
