I was inspired by Mina's post of a quick update on her life currently, so I've decided to do the same, seeing as I haven't had proper contact with some of you guys since I last visited Sheff town!
First things first, despite how much I may or may not rant for the rest of this improvised post, I'm not doing that bad really. I'm not mega unhappy or super depressed, it's just things could certainly be better. Just throwing that out there.
Bad news first, as I'm sure everyone knows by now, just like Mina, I'm really fucking sick of the workload. University as a whole seems to be "Good grades, Sleep, Social Life. Choose two". I have opted to drop the social life aspect, but it wasn't a deliberate choice. It just sort of happened. I still get to see people at meal times and during lectures and stuff, but I'm really not doing that much at all otherwise. On top of that, it's not just the amount, it's the sheer difficulty of some of it. Linear Algebra is by far the hardest maths I've ever had to do, it isn't at all intuitive, and it's getting more and more abstract with every passing lecture. Abstract in my book by the way, means "really bloody weird".
Good news? I've met some really brilliant people here, who I have a lot in common with. Now if only I could actually spend some time with them.
That's my life right now in a nutshell. Work, sleep, eat, play the occasional video game at the weekend. I'm not exaggerating, that literally is it. I need to bloody get out before I blow a fuse.
So yeah. Overall, I'm still enjoying the subject itself, but I just need a break. Screw three weeks till Christmas, I need a break NOW.
How's everyone else's life been going? Maybe you should all make an update on you're current standing in the universe. This blog needs more attention really, I've really been slacking off on it!
Laters.
