48 hours

Could use twice the hours in day/ in 48 hours this will hopefully be over. Need to become sharper, clearer, focused, faster academically. I remember the first half of 1st year when I hated Dundee and my life here, but everything academic was incredibly effortless, fewer hours and better grades. Correlation? The scrutiny of depression seems to breed academic sucess, effeciency and precision.

For this reason, I tried to get back in that place today, all the sad songs, all the sad thoughts, but the feeling was overwhelming, the emotional contrast was too great, so it gave no academic boost, just a need for friends and family! So, intermittent downtime is the only thing that works relatively well and working with coursemates to supervise you. I feel like I'm in Kindergarten, longing for the teenage hell of uncontrollable zit-popping. I hope I don't need to explain that metaphor..

Anyway now I'm back to number-crunching and then later on an all-night essay session at Kirsty's. Had a Kings and Coward's gig today at Drouthy's opening for Our Future Glory (who where releasing their EP). Downtime. Now it's game time.

Sunny Soul

	The Cure - Friday I'm In Love

This day has been a good old day

Caught up with José (my old highschool classmate) who I haven't seen in months even though we study in the same city. It's apparent that we have different goals in life at the moment. We could definitely use some trading. I have too much fun, make too many plans - he goes to the gym and gets straight A's. After lunch we browsed through the campus flea market, and parted as I was off to get filmed with the rest of Armoire (business plan-team), as we're nominated for the best business plan of this year's cycle of the Enterprise Gym. Will post the video when it's put up after the Award's Dinner next week.

Now I'm off to host Open Mic Night at the Union with Chris! Toodle tut!

The massacre we left behind at Duke's:

Soaking the sun on campus before the filming.

The sun was setting as I left the library to practice for tonight's Open Mic:

It's so beautiful, I am already oozing positivity at the moment, but this is the cherry!

Failing means yer playing

Ah, just had a lovely picnic lunch with Kirsty here in sunny Dundee. Getting to our study schedules and my camera is out of batteries at the moment, so no new images, only the mental ones in your head!

Came across this I was trying to retort my mom's Swedish 70's saying:

Old Scottish Sayings. Hilarious!

Cleansing Period

Ginger beer and the green screen and relaxing with the best friends around bars and outside apartment buildings. We make great times out of so little. These days have been relaxing. Now I'm soon off to the Broughty Ferry beach to celebrate Joe's birthday with a couple of friends! Sunday sunshine in my soul!

Green screen dancing upon Gordie's instruction from yesterday,

this Italian girl has some intimidating skills and made me feel less like a woman and more like a child:
