Survival

This is my main (read "only") objective for the next 3-4 months. yesterday, for the first time, i had the thought that perhaps i have bitten off more than i could chew. full time uni, almost full time work, social life and sport have been difficult to juggle and i am only into day 2 to be perfectly honest!

my first uni tutorials passed without much fanfare. French was a little bit of fun although i feel i would appreciate it a bit more after a few glasses of Beaujolais red and some fine cheeses. political economy should not be too tough to get through but i think i will have some struggles trying to put up with other people in my tutorials. going off on tangents to what the lecturer is talking about to prove what you know? that don't impress-a me much.

social work has really become the diamond in the rough. we were asked why we were taking the class and  i had to quickly think of a reason apart from "i think it will be a coasty way to raise my average & it fit my timetable". i pretended to not know which building the tute was in because i heard two cute girls talking about being lost looking for it ("are you talking about social work? yeah i don't know where i'm going either!" ... jackpot). not sure why, but i feel as though i am trying to align myself with the 'Mean Girls' of the group - and i think i like it. they did appear to be more than happy to talk amongst themselves and leave me out of it but i will persist (at least once) and if i get super desperate i think i can pretend to be gay to win them over. it won't be too hard, i already wanted to tell one of them how much i liked her super cute shoes. at the moment, anything to win over new friends.
