Lucky.


All I know is, whenever Uni gets tough, I just remind myself that I'm living on my own with 4 fit girls next year.

Fuck, I am crashing. I am crashing so bad it's absurd. For the first time in YEARS I don't know what to do any more. When I was in school, it was so easy: I am Tom Jansky, therefore I will get by on Pure Fucking Instinct and never lose. My first year of Uni was a wake-up call, but this second year is fucking AGONY. I'm bleeding marks every hour. I don't know what to do any more, and in my uncertainy I just sorta flounder between despair and apathy, going nowhere. I can't work out how to break the fucking cycle. Everyone gives me advise but nothing helps. Holy fuck, I am so screwed... so totally raped. I need help. Tell me how the fuck I can stop being ME.

As a first-year student, that's nice to know..... :cry:

I'm just doing a group Java coding project at the moment. Or it should be a group project. One person is an emo, has just had a typical "oh my life is shit" moment and given up, dumping the write-up in my lap. This is after I've pretty much coded the entire thing anyway, as I'm the only one who knows what the fuck I'm doing.

It's now 1.40am on Thursday morning. I have three quarters of a write-up to do, inventing imginary test results to make it look like we actually tested the thing properly (which of course we didn't) and an entire section of the code still to write. The project is due in on Friday.

Fuck.

I pulled my thumb out of my arse at the beginning of second year and even managed to average As for my course work before fucking my exams to get Bs overall. Third year has been a step up in doing work independently.

I did literally nothing for that java traffic control assigment which means i've got 0 for 50% worth of 1 module, need to get like 80-90% on my next assigent for the module to just pass. Need to pass every module to pass the year and seeing as I have 5 assignment to do over xmas, well 4 really seeing as 1 is a group one, aswell as an exam I think its safe to say im getting bummed. :doh:

essay report:

time: 23:25

essay: 2500 word Egypt essay - 12.5% of Egypt grade

deadline: tomorrow, 10am

progress: 2 pages (slightly under 1000 words) with loads of notes and a good plan

feeling: pretty good actually, I've got shitloads to discuss, so for once it's more about making it a GOOD essay than a sufficiently LONG essay. I'm not mega happy with what I've written so far, but because I missed the "feedback deadline", I'm just going to have to hand it in blind and hope it's ok.

--

tomorrow night - typing 2500 word Roman essay

--

tuesday night - typing 2500 word Medieval essay

--

thursday night - Iron Fucking Maiden

--

it's all good :dance:

it's 5:56am, and I havent slept at all since my last message...

Aaargh, the screen is so blurry. I am still plodding on with the essay, I've done aound 1500 words, but they are crappily written words, and I'm actually running out of space to cover everything.

RAAAR, come on! Come the fuck on!!! Renewed vigour, renewed vigour...renewed...vigour.

FOCUS!

I'm just using UK Thrash to give myself some self-help.. don't mind me.
