Music and studies

I've discovered that schoolwork goes really fast and effective when I listen to drum and bass. Getting more heavily into it day by day, it's just so ... cool! :D Becoming worse of a music geek every day now, at least I stopped listening to dance music for a while! Like, really low qual dancehits that haunt the clubs in town.. now it's all about drum n bass. ^^ If you wanna check out a track that is hunting my brain nowadays, follow this link that will take u to the song on youtube: Pendulum - Still Grey. It's really good. :)

School is super hectic atmo, I'm running all over town doing data collection, at the same time as my thesis supervisor is demanding some written work this week (Which means I have to complete it TODAY since I am going to Auckland tomorrow and then skiing on the weekend, yayy!). I'm gonna be sooooo happy when I finish!

Tiki Taane

I just love this song! I'm becoming a technohead, I think...

Moving on

Now that I am done with the fitness competition, I feel a bit less pressured. I'm still gonna push myself to continue the good lifestyle that I've started, but now at least I don't have to stress if my weightloss goes at a slower pace. Miss my fitness blog though...

School is going ok at the moment, I'm beginning to get some motivation again. Maybe I just don't like holidays much, because I have to little free time, that when I don't have classes I just feel very very alone. It's weird, but definitely the contact with my classmates are highlights of my week, people who know what we're dealing with, and who offer some mental aid in terms of encouragement, and sharing fears about bad marks and evil professors ;). And when it's holiday time, I don't see them, and I am still too busy with all kinds of studies... it just gets me down. Now I am starting my data collection period! Scary.. and I am still behind on the other work that I am supposed to have done during the holiday.. but I've decided to look ahead, and just be happy for the things that I manage to get done every day, instead of beating myself up over things that I should have done, or could have done. I was so stoked that I got an A- for the essay that I regurgitated in a depressed and unmotivated state during the holiday, that means that the C+ I got was the only huge dip that I will have, if I only toughen up and face what is coming with a positive attitude! Easier said than done.. but for goodness sake! I am quite elevated at the moment. I look better than I've done in aaages, I am fitter than I've been for years and years, and I have found new interest in my dissertation. Let's hope this high lasts for 6-7 weeks!!!
