Tänään.

Today was one of those days where you just don't manage to get out of bed until after lunch, or out of your sleep clothes at all. At this time, I should have been leaving school, contemplating a shower or thinking about when to eat something.

Sometimes in times of serious stress, my brain just stops functioning. There is no possible way for me to get my shit together by 8.55am and be at school and then manage to learn something on days when my brain decides to take a break. This means I'll usually spend 15 - 18 hours in bed, get up around lunch time, eat something really crappy that has no health benefits what so ever, then lounge around until I feel tired again, probably watching movies or TV or playing some game.


Today it took until 12.30pm to get out of bed, then I ate some fish & chips my mum got for me, and watched The Big Bang Theory until the second season ended and I was too lazy to get off the lounge and get the third season.


On another note, Steve Jobs resigned as CEO of Apple, and apparently Tim Cook has been appointed the new CEO. I'm kind of excited to see what's going to happen to their designs and products, and especially keen to see if the release of the iPhone 5 will be on track for early October or if they hold off for a bit.


Once again jumping topics, I'm off to Canberra for a university open day in Canberra tomorrow afternoon and coming home Saturday night. I'm excited for a few reasons; I get to see my nephew who is about 6 weeks old, and of course my lovely sister and her husband; I get to go out in Canberra with 2 of my best friends, Mel and Jess; I possibly get to meet one of Jess's good friends, Tim; and I get to inquire about various courses and campus's. Here's a lovely photo of Jess, myself and Mel taken about a month ago. 


Of course, I should be more excited to go see a movie with these two and possibly Tim than I am to pour vodka into my slushy, but for the last week I've been feeling the need for some good old stress relief, and alcohol is usually a good start. I do like a good few drinks when the time comes, and that time often comes on a Friday and/or Saturday night. And drinking in a different environment when I have a designated driver, who is also on antibiotics and thus cannot drink even if she wanted to, is a nice way to begin half a weekend away.


Anyway, I have to eventually pack for the night way, my list including a bottle of vodka, a change of underwear, jeans, jumper and socks. Tomorrow nights clothing will be bought tomorrow afternoon while Jess gets her lip pierced, aside from my stockings which I'll be wearing, and my boots, which I'll also be wearing, and my jacket. So really I'm only buying a dress. I also have to remember to check my car's battery, make sure I have the appropriate travel things in the car, charge my phone, find the car keys in the car, and then remember to go to school in the morning.


I'm going to attempt to take some photos of things and places that are blog-worthy so I can start to post photos as well as my long text posts that are basically so I can remember my thought process's and things I've done this year without forgetting half of them.


Now, off to pack some clothing and pajamas. And makeup. And toiletries. And whatever else comes to mind at the time, and try to fit it into a handbag so I don't need anything bigger. And I need to have a super long shower tonight. Oh this is going to be a long afternoon. On the plus side, Jess will be here at some point, so then I can chill and have an excuse to not do anything.
