It's week 11.  Where has the semester gone?  I had two deferred exams last week because I had to return to the NT for a funeral (I might talk about that another time) during the break.  My first exam was on Tuesday and my second exam was on Friday.  I was so exhausted Friday night that I went to bed at 7.30 and slept through till 9.30 Saturday ( Read more... )

I'm still here.  I haven't updated in a while but it's because not much has happened.  Quietly waiting for uni to start.  A week-and-a-half to go.  Orientation week starts Monday however the uni isn't putting on anything exciting.  They only do the fun things for first semester.  Yet, Gumurri Center says they will have a meet-and-greet for new ( Read more... )

I am officially enrolled in Griffith University's Bachelor of Biomedical Science program.

Don't ask me how it happened, but it did...

I'm very excited and very nervous.

I don't start until the 22nd of July so until I will twiddle my thumbs and maybe do a bit of reading and quilting while I wait.

I thought you all should know I've had a Shane Ride of a day

My last exam today (w00t)

I am so not looking forward to it.  It's modern politcal thought.

I can't wait till it's done.
