101) Procrastinating! Which, by the way, has reached it's all time peak. I'm so determined to not to do the BA that I started writing a Swedish essay that has a deadline in April. How sad is that? Well, I've written half a page of the BA today as well so... it's ok, I guess. I just would like to have this thing over with. Somehow I feel that I've lost all the routine with anything school related and my attention span is now about 5 minutes. I just hope it will get better now that I actually have school.
My ribs are still quite sore, which is a bit annoying. Luckily they weren't broken, but the ytsh doesn't know what to about it. I just need to rest, I guess. Which pretty much means no aikido and no singing (well I go to the lessons but that's it). Yay. It's not actually sore enough to really stop me from doing anything, but probably if I do something it will take much longer to heal so... what can you do.
At least now I have Japan to look forward to. I found out that since it's school holiday time, the Japan Railways has this super cheap railway pass, so I'm even able to move around for a bit. ^^
