Right. It's been six days since the last post, and things are decidedly better off. The essay draft is in (now I just need to get the essay itself done...), all my tests are over for now. On Friday the first term officially ended for us, and I decided to give myself a couple of days to recuperate away from students and the likes thereof...
After a decidedly relaxing weekend spent eating various foods (most of which I can't pronounce) and drinking various substances (most of which I can't remember) at my parents' place, I am on my way to good ol' Stellenbosch. I am still waiting for my rejection letters from law firms (no news is good news, for now...), and for the time being I'm going to spend my days leisurely working on things I'd like to finish before the new term (such as The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, and the new Terry Pratchett...).
They say that April is the cruelest month. I tend to disagree. The month that normally doesn't like me is March (with August hot on it's heels), considering it's the time of year that I'm always single, broke, overworked, and don't seem to get to spend enough time drinking and socialising in general. Already things are better. I've managed to spend time with my family & friends, have a couple of really nice meals, get horribly drunk (and not have a massive hangover), sort out my finances (well, at least I'm not AS broke anymore...), and that's just in the first three days so far! In April, things just seem to cut me some slack. I don't know why, it just happens, and I'm not going to jinx it by trying to find out why I'm not being karmically screwed over like everyone else around me... Sometimes you should just be thankful. Here's to a great month (hopefully)!!!
A place where the thoughts of paranoid sons of apartheid politicians go to die...
