hathycol"When I was a student," I said, a lot, to anyone who wondered how I would balance the time between a full time job and a busy evening course, "at one point I had three jobs and a full-time degree AND looked after societies. I am all about time management. I'll be fine."
PAST COLLEEN WAS SETTING HERSELF UP FOR A FALL I FEEL.
Which is why I am procrastinating on LJ rather than doing any of the things I should be doing, like finishing off one assignment; starting the other; cleaning my filthy cesspit of a flat; preparing to go away tonight because I promised in August I'd go to a houseparty. In Nottingham.
I am not especially motivated to do any of things. This is because the first assignment to complete is dull; the second is just plain baffling due to poor teaching. I don't want to party tonight because our neighbours thing dubstep is appropriate at 8am on a Saturday morning, so I'm already kind of sleepy. And I don't want to clean because I really feel I shouldn't. I do the lion's share of the housework because neat freak but Richie solemnly agreed to cover more of it so I wouldn't get stressed by the state of the house when I was meant to be doing an assignment. Instead he is spending a lot of nights in the gym. I don't mind him exercising AT ALL but I do get peeved when I come home ay 9.30pm and he's watching TV or in pajamas and the house is a TIP and the excuse is 'oh, I was at the gym and didn't get in until 8pm.' Grrr.
Right. I am going to make a cup of tea, try to avert my gaze from the dusting, polishing and hoovering that is desperately overdue (already cracked and put on laundry, cleaned away old laundry and done washing up and that was AFTER I had gone out to the shops so we have food in for the week and booze for tonight) and do a personal development plan. Because that's a fucking useful way to spend my time because I definitely don't already have a comprehensive work appraisal system as it is. But at least then my first assignment will be done. Only seven more to go until June! They're Pass/Refer, at least, i.e. all I have to do is pass and if I don't I just get told how to do it again and pass this time. Good grief, it's like first year.
(I was in such a lovely mood, briefly. I went outside, the sun was shining, it wasn't too warm, the leaves were crunchy. Oh well.)
