on the brink.

so, yes. this blog has officially become an outlet for my procrastination and headstrong determination to not-study the night before my exam. i think it may have just become a self-fulfilling prophecy, but here we are nonetheless.

had a pretty craptastic day. i have been making a conscious effort to not let this blog become a place to rant and rave about the stupid, trivial, annoying and altogether *yucky* parts of my life.. because there's enough of that going on in my own head. but i think today warrants a slight rant.

woke up tired as feck because i tossed, turned and coughed my way through a horribly sleepless night. upon close inspection, i find my tonsils are disgustingly red and swollen (interestingly ive had tonsilitis at least once a year for years now, but not in any serious way. my tonsils swell, i cough for days, but i dont get a fever or any other symptoms. i should probably get them out, but unnecessary surgeries scare me so). my stomach was sore from coughing, and i felt like something had died in my throat. yeah.. it was that bad. went to the doctors, waited for ages. didnt get seen, went to work. struggled through my shift, went through an entire packet of anticol and tried not to cough in customers' faces (i hear its rather rude). i resorted to coughing into the crook of my elbow - i hear this is the "new" way of doing it.. apparently more hygenic than coughing into your hands, since your elbows dont really come into contact with much else. whether or not this is true, i did manage to look like a raging moron for about five hours. got home, popped a pill, ate cold chinese leftovers and .. here we are. now must attempt to study (at this point anything i do is largely symbolic. i certainly do not deserve a good mark for this subject.. its more of a "ok, PPE.. i dont like you, and you dont like me, lets just get this over and done with").

also, going to have to set my alarm to 4.00am, take another antibiotic, wait half an hour, eat something, then somehow get back to sleep. this is going to be an interesting night.

and now, here's something for the kids:


audrey tautou is something to *obsess* over, isnt she? very much looking forward to this biopic, even though im not usually into them.. especially the ones about musicians. walk the line? bored me to hell.

hope you interwebs are doing better than i am,

over&out.
