I feel so frustrated today.
But first...
Tuesday I tried to get some more work finished but not a lot happened before I went to work at six. It was a bit busier, generally, more food orders, time went quite quickly. Worked with Tammy. On Monday, both Rachel and Katie warned me about her...but she seemed fine. Still, i'll be diplomatic.
Wednesday we had our second flat inspection of the year and passed with flying colours - the guys cleaned the flat when I was at work and I was quite impressed to find they did a bloody good job! It was immaculate. I wasn't in fear that they wouldn't do a good job - but thanks in part to mummy dearest i'm one of those people who like to have things done 'their way'. Oh dear.
Wenesday was all work work work...finally finished the interpol essay! Just Britpol to go now. We dropped all our documents off at Providence as well, for the house...then decided to go for a drink in hyde park corner before going home to crack on with the work again. Well, a drink turned into tea, and then after i ate fish and chips (so good!) me and viki decided to get a treacle sponge and custard each, only they only had one left, so we replaced one with a hot chocolate fudge cake and ice cream and shared the two desserts. Cue Sam feeling uber-fat.
Anyway. Frustrated.
I have a Britpol essay to do in approximately 4 days. I also had my CDI presentation this morning, which led to a quickie effort in the library this morning. I walked in with jane for 9 and missed my 10 o clock lecture to work through til one. What a produced wasn't amazing, but would do, and i could back up a lot last years globalisation on poverty and global governance...and ok, so maybe the tutor war right, maybe i could have been more specific about global financial insitutions, but sorry, I have had 2 essays to do this week, both in after the weekend, started a new job and am now fighting the urge to go out both tonight and tomorow to contend with, so if i dont write a small novel for a NON-ASSESSED presentation, its hardly my fault.
I think the frustration has kicked in about now, actually. Whoever said that the workload at uni was less lied. Its not. It feels like less, because i only have 6 contact hours a week, and only 4 essays and two exams this semester, bur when you consider the fact that a decent essay takes a week and a half, *amongst* all your other reading for the the other 2 modules, trivial things such as washing clothes and cooking and food shopping, then the life i'm supposed to have, full of going out...well, its all a bit hard to juggle.
Decided to do my two outstanding essays over easter to alleviate some of the stress for the last two weeks of term, which shall be non-stop revision i imagine. Blah.
I really wanna go out tonight now...oh dear. Scott Viki and Jane are going to Spoons and Oceana, bit of a trendie night. I know i'm going out to star tomorow night, and sin wise thats all i can kind of afford to do, but god, the temptation to go out and fuck everything off is terrible.
Did i mention me and viki are going to be in the audience of the jeremy kyle show? filiming on the 23rd. staying over in manchester and going out. should be a laugh.
Oh, and in recent developments, i'm being sent to London by work, for induction training with rachel, the other new girl. We're staying in the crown plaza, its amazing! nr the tower of london. I also get paid 2 full days wage for being there. wooo!
I miss matt. and being around adam and jane, who are in the midst of 'new relationship' and thus cant leave each other alone, is rather annoying. not them as such, they're fine...just that they have each other i probs wont see matt til like, wendesday. rubbish. but unavoidable.
ahh well, move in with him next friday.
