Highs, Lows and Sunday Selfies

After a long week of studying for economics it is finally over. It felt like it has taken forever to get to this point but I am here. That was the last economic paper I will hopefully have ever written. Well, holding thumbs I will not have to come back for a supplementary exam in February but I'm sticking with the external optimism.


After the exam of Friday I have taken a weekend of a well-deserved break. I at least think it was well deserved.
Friday we went out for lunch and then again for some drinks in the evening. It was really nice to go out and just be chilled. To not have to worry about having to study or my upcoming exams. While out on Friday I met some really interesting characters. It was great. I let my hair down and just had a great time. Had a really great time with Andreas, Lisa and Scott. I really love them. They are such special friends. They make this place bearable.
Saturday was also really chilled. Went to buy Fiona's birthday present, a gift basket of exam treats that I have subsequently given to her and she loved. Although this is way before her birthday. Later on Saturday I had another birthday event, for Chrissi. As I have previously mentioned I go to coffee tasting to help a friend, who is also a barista, out. One of the girls that also attend the tastings had a small birthday get together at the shop and we were all invited. It was such a nice time. I had a blast. It was such a nice time. After that I went back up to res for a fat chill. This happened until a bit later when a friend of mine, Josh, messaged me. So, Josh is a guy I met about four or so months ago while at Tri-Var non Tri-Var. We get along, I guess, and he's a nice guy. Great hook-up but more than that, I don't know. Our hook-up left we with a great ending to the day. Well, that and watching Stardust for about the millionth time.


Friday and Saturday were perfect. Just what I needed but like all good things, nothing lasts forever...


Sunday has been a rollercoaster of emotions. I have no idea as to whether I am coming or going or what the fuck is going on inside my head. I have spent most of the day cooped up in my room watching movies and listening to music. I am having super mixed emotions about everything. I can't decided whether I want to see people or be alone. Be happy or sad. Optimistic or just plain angry. Angry at what, I'm not even sure but it seemed like the right emotion. The only thing stopping me hurling my coffee cup across the room is the rational side of me thinking that I'm just gonna have to clean it up so what's the point? Will it make me feel better? Probably but I still feel it's unnecessary and a waste of a perfectly good coffee cup. I have grown fold of these thick, white and cheap PnP specials.


I guess it's not strange that I have had such a rollercoaster weekend. What goes up must come down and I think the rules of physics applies to my emotions too. All in all I think it has been a good weekend. If not for the time I spend with friends, the hook-up or the movies watched but for the awesome selfie I took while on the walk I took a little earlier. Looks like selfie-Sunday is happening again.

Out with the old, in with the new.

Off the bat I would like to apologize for the really bad High school Musical title for this blog post. Although it kinda grates me to post it I don't really know any other way to title this post. Anyways, here goes...

On the road to positive thinking and my no-complaining November I have decided that I need to did my life of all that is negative. Or at a least try. It's quite a difficult one because there are certain things in my life that are quite negative although I don't know if I want to remove them.
An example: My friend and I really like memes and through the course of this year and last we decided that the memes of doge fitted him and grumpy cat fitted me. For his birthday I made him a doge shirt and me a grumpy cat shirt. Kinda cool hey.


Only problem, now that I'm trying to make my life more positive, does grumpy at have to go? He is after all GRUMPY CAT. Hardy positive.This is a serious toss up and although I do like the shirt I don't want it to affect me. 
Other thing I have been removing are tv programs and movies that make me a worse person. I've been trying to replace them with more positive ones. Sadly most of them now have I come from Mtv. Not exactly the most amazing programming but hey, let's hope it's keeps me positive. 

I'm heading into the home attract of the year. The whole year is boiling down to this, the final 4weeks of the semester. All that's keeping me going is reminding mysel to stay positive, I got this, and that in 24 days it will all be over.
Wish me luck as I enter the belly of the beast. This is seriously gonna test my positivity but it has I be done. I can do this right!?
