Jess' Blog

Hey blogging world!

Yes, i'm still here...

The reasons i haven't posted in AGES:

1. I worked 9-6 almost every day for the entire duration of my school holidays (not that it could be called a holiday when i worked nearly everyday). Yes, i enjoyed the money. But it meant that i had little to nothing to blog about because all i did was work.

2. This semester of school not only am i doing a condensed semester, i'm doing overload as well! For those of you who don't understand what this means, i'll break it down for you. For a full-time university load you must do 4 units per semester. the recommended time to spend studying per unit is 10 hours (and that doesn't include the time you spend on assignment writing). So full-time load is about 40- 45 hours of study per week. Overload is anything over full-time load. I'm doing 5 units. So yes, i spend roughly 56 hours (averaged) of the 168 hours i get to live each week. Conclusion= extremely busy and stressful time of my life!

3. I haven't made time to do it because i haven't found anything worth posting about due to the above 2 reasons.

Oh! And another reason i haven't been out and about is because my body finally decided to fall apart after 1 and half years of stress and pressure with no holidays or breaks. Yes, no significant holidays or breaks in the past one and half years. Crazy, i know! So i've had regular visits to the doctors and the hospitals in the past 3 weeks and now i've come to the point where i need to a) make some major changes to my current lifestyle and b)get better!

you might have seen this quote kicking around facebook: "Change isn't what i'm afraid of... it's the potential consequences of change that intimidate me". Firstly, yes i came up with that by myself. Secondly, it's exactly how i feel right now. I know the changes i need to make, but i'm intimidated by the potential consequences from making those changes. But i know if i don't make those changes... i can't progress for the better.

Such is life.

Hope everyone is well and happy in the blogging world (and in reality too)!

It's been great catching up.

Consider yourselves officially updated ;)

Jess.
