ready to start

I told myself to stop writing long, lengthy ass posts on my blog because we're in a time and age where no one has the patience to read through a chunk of text about someone's feelings or thoughts and it's all about pictures of your face or Kinfolk-esque photos. I mean, take a look at how Instagram is flourishing and Twitter isn't doing so well. People can't even be bothered to go through 140 characters or less!

Anyway, I haven't been on here in a long time. My last post was about my terrible lack of packing acumen for my trip to Hatyai. It was a good trip, and I have some photos I wanted to post but of course, procrastination is one constant in my life that will never seem to leave. 

In a bid to try to start of university life as a more sociable and outgoing person, I signed myself up for a 5 day orientation camp in school. It was five days of surviving on a total of approximately 10 hours of sleep doing non-stop activities. Did I achieve my wishes of starting school as an extrovert with many friends? Nope. I'm not sure which part of my brain decided I could magically become a very open and outgoing person but it was obviously wrong. I did manage to make some friends though. 

So... Yep. After a year of waiting, I'm finally heading off to school again. The final leg of this crazy education race that I've already been in for more than half of my life. Contrary to the post title, unlike Arcade Fire, I am most definitely not ready to start. There are so many uni things I don't understand, like choosing electives or what kinds of electives I'm exempted from. Should I opt for easy electives to pull up my GPA, or should I go for mods I'm interested in but may not guarantee me good grades?

Not to mention, I really feel like my brain is rusty from all the disuse, and after three years of being in Business I feel like I've lost a lot of my writing skills. All I did in business was churn out reports that were very much similar to each other and didn't require much writing skill. I don't know how I'll cope in my course, which is pretty writing intensive and requires a whole different skill set needed to write business reports. 

I'll also be staying in hall, although I'm not sure for how long. I'm totally unprepared, seeing as I've not packed, nor have I decided when to collect my key to move in. I don't know who my roommate is either!! And I'll have to wash my own toilet in hall, because I'm just the unluckiest person ever lol.

It will be so weird sleeping in a small room with a stranger!!!
