December? Really?
My word. I'm now officially allowed to feel Christmassy if I want to! Woo! The very fact that it's December is enough to give me a bit of Christmas spirit... I can even forgive the awful weather now.
Soooooo, this week is assessment week. A week of stress -- fun! Once tomorrow is over I'll be able to relax a bit, as most of the really difficult stuff will be out of the way by then. Today, however, I've got a sonnet presentation to do, which in and of itself is not that hard, but it's been built up and built up to the point where I'm really scared! It's like going to audition all over again :-(
Ok, time to get ready and get outa here. I'm going home on Saturday and I'm really looking forward to getting a bit of quality time at home before I head off to Canada on the 14th. Additionally, I think I'm going to have to officially pass on Christmas this year. I can't afford to buy anyone presents, and that's NOT an exageration. I'm going to have to run this past the parents (since I don't want to disappoint them) but I don't want people to be upset with me if they get nothing more than a hug this year. Guh. Not happy about this. But I've got to be practical -- and if I'm going to be able to afford to pay the bills next term, this might have to be the way forward.
