Total eclipse of the heart.

Last week was horrible because I was literally a walking zombie in school. I realised that having two off days from school isn't that great after all, because I have three days of full-day lessons. Tuesday in particular is the worst day of the week, because my lecture starts at 8am and I end at 4pm, but have to wait till 7 for capoeira to start. Wednesdays are pretty bad because I have a tutorial alone and the tutorial is horrible because we have to present our answers based on randomisation and we can't choose to skip a turn. Then I'll have a two-hour break rotting in school again, then lessons all the way till 6pm. What a day. Thursday is a non-school day, but I'll have to go back for cca at 7, and let me say the inertia to go for cca is at its maximum. Yet, after cca, we'll always feel a sense of achievement and enjoy cca. What a contradictory feeling. Fridays are pretty bad too, because I have lessons from 10-6, and only a 1 hour break. There hasn't been a day that I'm home before 5 this sem other than my free days.

Last Friday was pretty bad because I went for tutorial alone since Doreen and Vivan's had theirs on another day. It was bad because I was initially 25 mins early for tutorial, but I went to the wrong venue, and I stupidly waited outside and kept opening the door to check why the classroom was empty. I even thought that there was another secret door and that everyone else entered through that door. Turned out that I was waiting like a fool outside the wrong classroom, and ended up being 10 mins late for the tutorial. Heng I wasn't stupid enough to sit inside the empty classroom the entire time. Dashed into tutorial late and I bet the tutor had a bad impression of me oops. Oh and tutorial was weird because I felt like I was having lessons with a bunch of weirdos?? Like wth this girl was just being weird and asking the prof to choose which colour of the marker he wanted when he clearly told her to pass her the red one and she wasn't satisfied and proceeded to pick up the black and blue markers and shoved it in his face and asked him if he's sure he wanted the red one. Wth is wrong with this girl?? And prof asked a question, and this girl exclaimed super confidently that she knew the answer, and ended up repeating the tutor's question, then some dude replied, "yeah that's the question." LOL. Maybe because we were all from different faculties so it was kinda weird. The frequencies just don't match. How to survive in this tutorial alone you tell me T___T

This week is going to be tough too, because I have a german recording due on Wednesday and my group is only meeting on Tuesday to record. And they wanted to write a very long script which is bad because it means more memorising to be done, and a long script means a higher chance of pronouncing wrongly. But yeah group members are still pretty nice now. Also, Thursday night will be burnt because we're going to watch a play with the Theatre peeps. The play seems nice so I'm kinda excited, but will be drained coz I have a test on Friday ahhh. Time management omg wherefore art thou??

This sem is definitely tough and I'm barely hanging on and it's only week 3. I guess it's apt to say that I'm still alive but I'm barely breathing?? I'm really missing summer holidays. I miss the time where I just have all the free time in the world. I miss doing things I enjoy like eating LOL and just reading a good book. (My kindle is rotting on my table ever since the sem started). I miss just lazing on bed and taking naps. What are naps now?? I miss meeting my close friends and just sit down and chit-chat. I miss my best friends and the guy best friend too. I miss our movie sessions and just walking around aimlessly. Who will do all this with me when you're studying overseas?? I miss doing fun stuff with my friends like shopping (bimbz moment). I miss having extra time. I miss having time to sit down and collect my thoughts and just write about life in general.

Anyway, in astronomy class that day, I collected a bunch of cheesy pick-up lines HAHAHA. Topic of the day was eclipse. So someone said, "Cindy, you are the total eclipse of my heart." (cindy is the name of our prof by the way LOLLLL).

"Are you the Sun? Because my entire world revolves around you." HAHA I LIKE THIS. SMOOTH AS HELL.

"Prof, who stole all the stars and put them in your eyes?"

Ending this post with this very apt song - Total eclipse of the heart.



Once upon a time I was falling in love, but now I'm only falling apart. There's nothing I can do, total eclipse of the heart.
