Thankful Thursday


I have to admit that the end of my really tough and crazy academic week is looking really great and hell yea, gorgeous just like the photo above. Took this shot while I was walking to Chancellor's Place after walking Connie to her office.

Tute paper and discussion went pretty smoothly and there were some funny moments in class because as usual, I went all ghetto and punk. Hahaha. Well, it certainly adds life to the tutorial. When it comes to Politics class, I try to level them up by being all ghetto at times and it makes my tute mates laugh and I like that.

Insomnia is taking over my life so I haven't been sleeping properly which also made dozed off in MSTU3001 class while watching Take Off. If it weren't for Connie's email that shook my entire table forcing me to wake up, I would have slept throughout the film screening.

Went to meet Connie for our much urm awaited semester coffee session. Wasn't really a coffee session since both of us got soy hot chocolate in the end. It was as usual fabulous catch up - spoke to her about the recent NZ trip and the adventures I had there plus how I think NZ is the right place for me should I want to work overseas or if I do consider moving there for a bit. Funny and maybe the most lucky thing about the NZ trip that I managed to escape from being affected tremendously by the horrible and strange weather there. After we flew off from Wellington to Queenstown, Wellington was hit by an earthquake and just days before that happened, there was a massive storm. We were supposed to meet last week but we had to reschedule due to her being busy with markings and I wasn't in any good state to meet her as I had my own battles to settle and Connie was really sweet about it, offering help or basically asking me if there's anything she could do to help me go through it. When we spoke about it today, it was nice to hear from an adult's perspective and she made a few good points that also made a lot of sense. I was pretty relieved to hear that the decisions I have made so far is actually a good sign to restart my life and loved how she assured me that everything will be okay. Wouldn't have been able to survive Brisbane and the many ups and downs living without the parents if it weren't for Cons's positivity.

Today has been a great day. This week has been pretty fantastic albeit the crazy amount of assignment and work to be done but nonetheless, I have managed to complete most of them and have not delayed any submission. Coffee with Cons definitely made the day and a great way to end the week. Really, extremely thankful for such a wonderful day. :)
