Flailing, Sinking and Drowning
Underprepared, Underinformed and Overwhelmed
*Angstyness*
And it's only week two. I have only attended 7 hours worth of class this semester and I am already fucked.
Has anyone out there done Economics?! CHRIST! It's insanse!!!!
Add to the fact that little miss cleverpants here thought she was prepped for last week by printing out the outline BEFORE uni started and so didn't grab a copy being touted by the lecturer because SHE ALREADY HAD IT COZ SHE'S ONE OF THE CLEVER KIN AND PRINTED IT OUT HERSELF EARLY, and went to a tute this morning wondering why there wasn't any tute questions to be completed before the tute but was still feeling confident but was then informed that there WERE tute questions to be done and they are in the back of the OUTLINE that was handed out last week WHICH SHE DIDN'T GET COZ SHE ALREADY 'HAD IT'.
Add to the fact her name wasn't called out on the attendance list, leaving crickets chirping while the 60-sum'n yo tutor searched over and over for what is a fairly unusual surname that does tend to 'jump out'.
Add to the fact that she just checked online and had in fact made a lil typo re: tute room number on her oh-so-convenient timetable that she printed out in colour and stuck onto a convenient wallet sized business card so she could CARRY IT IN HER WALLET FOR CONVENIENCE.
Add to the fact that she sat down near the front of the lecture and tute in an attempt to attract some mature-age students for what would be very handy assistance and sympathy at being uncool at uni but got NOTHING.
And finally add to the fact that ALL THE GIRLS HERE HAVING FRICKIN TINY RAKE THIN ARMS. Seriously - thin as rake - like this thin:
(this is an arm)
AND I'M NOT LOSING WEIGHT FAST ENOUGH TO SUCCESFULLY COMPLETE THE BET WHILE THESE WAIFS CAN TALK ABOUT HOW THEY HAD PIZZA FOR BREAKFAST.
AND THERE IS WAY TO MUCH CAPS IN HERE BUT I CAN'T BE ASSED TO GO BACK AND MAKE IT COLOURED INSTEADS SO SHOVE UR RULES ON CAPS = CRAPS.
And you have me. atm. logging off.

Can I swap you? ANU have moved to a new teaching language for IT, and some of us part-timers now find ourselves doing assignments and trying to teach ourselves shit the kids did last year. Farrrrk!
Boy'bry - NO! I started IT the first time around and will never go back there again!
Belinda Gwen - Thanks! And keep up the good work on your inspiring blog!!
Mang, economics is the da jizz, yo'.
Martie - THAT SHIT IS SOME SERIOUSLY FUCKED UP BANANAS.
Why do you need rakes for arms? I sure yours would be ok!
Russ - it's the constant battle of a martial artists with naturally big shoulders - I naturally tend to bulk up pretty easily. Plus I get self conscious - one of the first things The Huns Dad said in my presence was "You're right - he arm's ARE bigger than yours". *sigh*
