It is confirmed.
I will be done with exams and thus uni (providing I don’t fail!) at half past 3 on the 9th of May. Wish I could fast forward to that point!

SCHOOL:
In class: 1+1=2 Exercises: 1+2+1=4 Test: John buy 4 oranges. He eats one and gives another to Ted. Calculate the sun’s mass.
Due to the chap in question being my friends on...
On the off-chance they actually read/understand my statuses, I will celebrate here:
Actually had a semi-productive meeting with my marketing group featuring two Chinese lads, one of which I think has said a total of 7 words in all the times we’ve “spoken”.
It was a little like swimming in treacle at points, but my fellow Dark and I dragged us through.
However
just received notice that my group got 65% for one of our assignments we handed in before Christmas, so that’s a small.. something.
I like my Finance module best.
The one I picked because I knew it would be quite tricky and challenging, in the hope that this would help to give me a kick up the ass. It hasn’t worked quite as anticipated - I am willing to work on my finance work, but not really my other modules.
This just reinforces my realisation that I do in fact like numbers and mathsy things. Just none of this stupid bollocks about.. well I...
Every day
I set my alarm, it goes off, I wake up. I think hmm ok today is the day I get up at a reasonable time, like a real decent human being. It then gets to at least half 10 and I wake up again.
In the gap between these two points, I have no idea what happens or how. Other than obviously I somehow go instantly back to sleep.
DAMMIT ABILITY TO SLEEP!

I enjoy the succinctness of this statement.
Client: Hey, I want to cancel the project so If you could just give me a full refund of my non-refundable deposit and we’ll both go our separate ways
Me: I’m afraid the non-refundable deposit can’t be returned.

Me: It’s non-refundable.
Client: Well I didn’t know that!

Gah people.
Why are they so consistently useless? Is it just the ones in my life? If I contact you about meeting up later today, I don’t really want you to reply about 15 minutes before the time I suggested meeting. Ugh.
Also, getting no reply from the programme leader of your degree after three separate emails isn’t very good either is it.
Insomnia?!
Well, maybe not quite, but I’m definitely weirdly awake for this time of day/night.
Where are you sleep?!
I am dissatisfied.
We were shit at futsal again, played like a bunch of useless pricks.
Gah.

Anyone want an extra 500MB+ of Dropbox space?
You can get up to 4.5GB extra just for installing their beta and plugging in SD cards with photos on, essentially. You get 500MB just for the first upload, so about 3 minutes work gets you half a gig of space.
A way to tell that your brain's a bit tired:
If you try to slide the folding shower door.
Virtues of working in the library:
You can use the beastly internet connection to download episodes of TV shows to watch when you go home.
The vending machine offers easy access to sinful snacks that you would normally have to leave the house for or indeed have purchased in advance.
You feel scholarly, even if all you’re doing is putting pieces of paper in order or similar menial tasks.

The Swellers - Runaways
I do believe that if I...
Dammit.
There was me looking forward to using my new wireless mouse in the library, and I’ve gone and forgotten it. What a fail.
This and the preceding post make me look so so cool. If I had any followers, I might lose some.
Well done Royal Mail.
You appear to have lost an item of post containing two forms of my ID, and savings account details. Fabulous. Really reassuring.
Not like someone can steal my identification with that or anything..
