This year is my last year at City University, and it couldn’t have come sooner!
I’m tired, physically and mentally tired. I’m sick of exams, sick of revising for exams, sick of taking exams and sick of travelling into central London everyday to sit those exams.

I’m pretty sure that I already failed one of my exams, but for some reason I don’t seem to care that much, three grand I spend on my education a year, that should be enough to spur me on, make me want to achieve something and study harder, but it doesn’t. It’s not like that amount of money is just lying about for me either, I like most students have to pay it back, with interest. I would have like to have said that the thought of that alone is enough to scare me into sitting up straight…but alas! it does not!
But I have promised myself (or at least given myself a stern talking to) that I will try to do the following things, so I pledge:
“I will try, to the best of my ability, to find the enthusiasm to complete these 6 more months of pure hell, by completing my Final Year Project (which I know is gonna suck beyond belief), going to 9am lectures (not that I didn’t before, I went to most them), completing coursework in plenty of time, revising a good few weeks in advance for exams and attending more employment opportunities talks”.
On a scale of 1 to 10 I think that I will just crash and burn, but at least the enthusiasm for being enthusiastic about wanting to be more productive is there.
But I do really want to get my social life in order this year. Last year it just didn’t happen, most of my life was spent at uni, but not this year, this year I take it back. Gonna see my friends more (try and make some new ones as well) and go out more and just try new things (this will probably end up with me trying new foods, which I found is turning into quite a hobby of mine).
So Roll on 2009, please be nice to me though I tend to be sensitive and all girly and stuff.
