Week 9: The 'Not' Week

This week has been a very unusual one in terms of uni, so I think this post will be quite short!

As I said last week, I went to a concert last Sunday in London and I was really excited about it - and rightfully so, it was so good and I got to meet two of my favourite YouTubers and I loved it, but the journey home was a nightmare. Luckily it was only 2am rather than a possible 4.30am return home and a massive favour owed to a friend (thank you Maria!) but with being ill and having throbbing headaches as well, Monday was a completely write off.

I didn't get out of bed until my second seminar had started and I spent most of the day half asleep and blowing my nose before going to dance that night and desperately trying to breathe through intense training.

Tuesday was slightly better - I went to Mettricks for a 9.30am start to get some work done with my friend Nikki and proceeded to spend three hours working on planning my blog posts for the next month. Yes, I hate my priorities and myself too don't you worry.

But I did go to my lecture at 4 and even though it was pointless, I actually got some work done which is the important bit. And I made it to dance that night even if I couldn't breathe very well.

Wednesday was another blissful day off uni. I'll be honest I have genuinely no recollection of what I did.

I take that back - Pokemon Sun and Moon came out that day so my boyfriend and I were playing that all day. I bought snacks, I had a nap and then we played Dungeons and Dragons in the evening. Wednesday was 'full on nerd' day.

Thursday was slightly more productive - I had to go to a Student Ambassador retraining session and it overlapped with a seminar so I prioritised the one I'm getting paid for. Probably shouldn't, because one of them costs me £9000 a year but here we are, I can't change my decision now. I then played more Pokemon that afternoon and went to work at the uni cinema in the evening and got to see Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them for free because I worked it and it was amazing, I loved it, I'm obsessed with it, Eddie Redmayne is a blessing among humanity and I still haven't done any work because I've got to a point where I just hate myself a lot and I keep putting it off even more.

Then on Friday, I went into uni to pick up some equipment I needed for the weekend, tidied my room, did the washing up and then went to Asda with my dad who is visiting for the weekend. So then I went for dinner with him and my boyfriend and then we played Pokemon till 2am.

And then I went into town super early because my Dad bought me my Christmas present really early and we wanted to get to town whilst it wasn't too busy because Southampton on a Saturday in the run up to Christmas. It's not fun. There are many rude people.

But I have a new camera! It's so beautiful! Look at this photo of ice cream I took!


I like it a lot. Tomorrow I have a pretty busy catch up day planned because of how little work I've done this week.

Next week is super busy, so I'll have more to say next week. Thank you for reading!
