Routine
12:13 PM
I think my study life is eating my social life to crumbs. Thus far, I have missed out on a rugby game with tickets going for cheap (you can't say u've stayed in NZ til you've been to a rugby match), but that was not really all to do with studying either. I've missed out on UMSA day out. I've missed out on drinks and a night out with my housemate and her workmates. Everytime there's a social planned, I frantically search in my head for some sort of excuse to come up with just so I can fit in yet another hour of study. Although it comforts me that what I'm doing is not normative of my attitude when all the studying bits are subtracted from my equation of life, it is still quite unsettling that I do not see some of my friends as much I want to. =(
In the next couple of weeks, I have a International Finance test, two 1000 word reports due and an essay on non normative group behavior due on the same day as my financial economics assignment. I think I've got a plan sussed out. But sometimes plans only remain plans. The difference is, this time I am determined to get it to work.
Even more so unsettling is my dropped affinity for the gym. It's getting boring to do the treadmill routine. And it's a pity that I didn't bring my swimsuit and have not had the time to go get one (honestly, I need to shop. I've not been shopping since i landed in NZ!). The effect? These days I make it to the gym approximately three times a week. Once I get a swimsuit, I will go swim. I've joined the futsal team playing at BERSATU games coz team sports gives me more to look forward to. And if all goes well I will be hitting the uni gym for Zumba classes with Kailas and Melitta this week on wards. A little spicing up in routine is exactly what I need.
Started my mentoring last Friday with two lovely girls at Ponsonby intermediate school. The session was really short but I got to know them on a moderate level. Coincidently, one of the girls' names was Dimi. Imagine that. I've lived my life all this while not knowing another Dimi and then I meet this young girl who I am supposed to mentor and her name is Dimi! I look forward to more mentoring sessions....
I am becoming more and more broke each day, and since I don't shop I honestly wonder where the money is going. I guess it's predominantly rent, social stuff and food that I pay for. Haven't heard from my jobs in yonks. Wonder if the company is even nailing any events. rawr. oh well. 5 minutes out. Need to shower and get set for uni.
