hmmm first day back at term.... think the class went well... set them off on a task to do a newstory...
I'm finished with the notes for the study group tomorrow night...
need to get started with the exam essay questions....
Hmmm...
2 pieces of good news...
1. I GOT MY GREEN Ps.... so in 5 days time, I would have driven for 2 years...
Thank God i passed the computer test... the license cost me a 100 bucks though...
2. I decided to take up the coporate job offer for the property development.... which means i'll put together a team... and pay people... kinda like... my own business.... I didn't go searching... this job just came a knocking... So here's an opportunity i won't let slip... It's kinda scary... my second "coporate job" but this time... I CALL THE SHOTS BABY... and even though its only got till end of August... I am not afraid.... really... no... not afraid... ALRIGHT... u got me there.. nervous.. but i'm sure i can pull it off... next is to decide... HOW MUCH I WANNA CHARGE... hehehe
Hmmm another 8hrs till parents arrive...... which will be good...
damn i still have so much work to do.... -_-
Apply for Masters.... and edit short film
Coporate Job....
Normal CCTV stuff... which should take me another 4hrs...
ummmmm Admin work...
and.... essays... essays... more essays... and an exam...
To top it off.... birthday party on Friday
Now someone tell me... AM I CRAZY?
AHhhhhhh

It's almost 1... I shld be in bed... but procrastinating... 1 night of relaxation and 1 sleep in, if my body clock allows... before going back to the cycle of mugging...
Picked up Joe P n Nikki tonight from the airport with Smash n his car 'cos we didn't know if the stuff would fit in my car... and went to Kathryn's n Lise's for dinner... they insisted.... and i didnt' regret it... we had pies... mustard soup and pancakes and watched Mona Lise's smile... i got home about 11.15pm... was tired so i drove slowly back...
WE had the exam today... n i was so nervous that i was going to throw up...
Intensives over... and the 4th years are... buggered....
We were chatting earlier and the gals were saying they were ready to burst into tears...
everyone's emotional... and.... feeling ill... we've taken turns to feel dizzy and nauseous...
But never mind... it's over now.... back to the normalities of this year......
Hmm had a phone call today offering a contract job... sounds good 'cos i get to do a proposal for the amount... Commercial job for a property development.... and it might give me a chance to rope some students in and pay them??? the actors i'm talking about... but first i need to sit down and look at my diary, plan out the essay due dates and exams.... 'cos this job would be due... at the end of August... i'm telling this guy that if i take up the job, there wont be much 'cos of time frame and lack of notice... so it wont be too bad... besides the show room's not ready till 2 weeks time... which gives me 2 wks to start essays... n exam's over by then... i hope... anyway... we'll see...
I said i'd get back to him Monday...
So.... for now....... bed time... n hopefully no more bad dreams because of the exam....
Eschatology.... pneumatology.... NT Wright....
ARHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

ok... i know... i need to be studying and not doing this...
Me to inner voice: STOP TALKING TO ME N JUST SHUT UP FOR ONCE...
I just thought I had to do this... was at Dee's place for study group... and it was ok.. Just as i guessed...
Babysitting Jevon tomorrow night... so hopefully i will get some study for the Worldview exam done... we've come up for the plan for the study group.... n we're meeting next Tuesday... the first day my parents are here... Oh well... a girl with exams' gotta do what a girl's gotta do..
Exam this friday and the conditions are............... kinda unrealistic??? 1 hr to write 2 500words exam...
Everyone's thinking its nuts... although the gals said that they prolly will just crap on... whilereas my understanding of a BA essay... is not to "smoke" it... but to actually write and prove something... something more in-depth... not something u write off the top of your head....
sigh... i think i'm going crazy...
it took me 40 mins to write a 350word essay the last exam....
Maybe its just me reading too much into things and maybe not so much effort should be put into it... but then again.... IT DOESNT MAKE SENSE..... why else would a BA be different to a diploma or high school paper then?
Argh....... i wanna know how i fared on the past two essays for the Arts history stuff...
Me to self again: OK just shut up....
I just filled up the tank.... and there was a scene at the kiosk 'cos some idiot had pumped petrol which came up to $11 and escaped.... punks.... they were not up to any good... ;cos before that they were hanging around in 2 cars..... but only one car filled up with petrol.... imagine getting a police record just for $11... Now... what was he thinking i wonder.... add to the fact that there were quite a number of other cars at the kiosk too.... or STation for the aussies.... who don't know what a petrol kiosk is......
RAhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Back to history of David and Saul.....
Imagine someone doing a double Masters.......
I DONT THINK SO....

why is it always easier to read articles on the net... or long blog entries... Multiple ones even... or anything else?
when u plonk yourself down at the table on a cold winter night in front of a close to 700 page book.... with the thoughts of its contents showing on the exam paper... the book just does not seem as.... appealing...adding to the fact that the coffee's wearing off...... and i feel sick from lunch...... lemonade pls??? Oh i know.. i'll have some of grandmother's magic powder....
Pam.. can i borrow your fireplace plsssss?! The heater's not working and its only heating one side of me... Hmmm maybe someone should make like a Hugeeee lazy susan... that turns round auto,atically... and that way you get heated up on all sides... not just one side....
DAmn....
the dog next doors annoying... someone lend me a gun pls...

hmmm finally the flu's going away... after 2wks... still blocked up... especially when i'm tired... but all's well... had a night off tonight.... went to Pam's for connect group... Pizza... and movies... Gosh was the seafood pizza nice... we watched Mr n Mrs Smith... think that will go on my list as one of the favs. will get the 1st years to watch it!!! The shots aided the tension and story telling of the film... n i was on the age of my seat...... ok not my seat... Pam's seats...
Took Anita to the airport this morning so was up at 3am... I'm surprised i am still wide awake... i'm starting to yawn now... and the bed's almost warm enough so after this i shall head to bed...
1 wk till everyone arrives in Sydney... Anita, Bonar, Mum n Dad.... and bonar's friend... so in the mean time i have a week to study for the Worldview exam which is a couple of days after my 21st party.... -_- Welll not quite a week... 'cos i still have intensives.... so i have like....3 nights... AND tomorrow... -_-
Started applications for the Masters program.... need to get quite a few documents together first..... and re-edit the short film that i made 2 yrs ago... I was just looking at the raw footage... N BOY DO I HATE IT NOW.... it was so................. cheeeeeeeeeesy..... well i guess its a start.....
and it was 2 yrs ago... stephen says it's called maturity... i'm looking at footages and listening to the audio and finding myself cringe one too many times... but its one of the better "non-live" productions i've done.... just to add a variety to the portfolio... need to hand in 3 original works.... so i've got lined up the damned short film... Resurrection 2005.... and an episode of CCTV...
Anyway hopefully i get accepted... Stephen's lookin out at other courses for me too.. he's emailed a friend of his at Charles Sturt Uni.... but at this point of time... the course in UTS still has me hooked... as in the programme..... so lets see what happens.. :)
Right... bed time...
working tomorrow for a bit den going cake shopping....
Note to self: Pls remember to buy Solomon's latest episode of Charmed...
