I don't really have anything to blog about, I just feel like it. I'm really sleepy today - without moaning about it again, I think all this work is taking its toll on me. I just feel so drained.
I'm really looking forward to June 5th because then I will have all of my work done and dusted [although we do have a presentation to do on 15th (???)] and I can finallyyyy relax.
I plan on having a glass of wine and lying in bed all day and do nothing, like the good old days.
I think when I'm at Chase's house I feel more relaxed, we had a massive conversation yesterday about all this work. Basically, we're making magazines in a unit called Publishing. I'm in a group with two other people, Maria and Joe, and our magazine is a magazine about Leicester culture, like a guide for students and shit. We decided we would split the work evenly and work on everything together.
So the articles I had to do was a Restaurants guide, a page with 30 Reasons to study in Leicester and an interview with a band [this all includes the layout and pictures, obviously] I was working on the 30 Reasons article with Maria and the band interview with both of them.
Cue two months afterwards
Our magazine was meant to be finished by the Tuesday just gone. I, knowing it wasn't going to be finished if we didn't do anything sharpish, worked all weekend doing articles.
I did a Whats New page [that Joe was meant to do], a Gigs Listing guide, two adverts, the band interviews, the restaurant page and a past and present music article [that Joe was also meant to do] but I figured as long as it gets done that's okay with me.
Tuesday rolls around and we get in, Maria shows me her Clubs and Bars article [similar to my restaurant one] and it's only half-finished, so she spent the entire lesson finishing it off, I had to re-do the contents page Joe did [the only page he actually did in the end]
Then Maria had the cheek to tell me my page numbers were on the wrong side and I had to re-do them.
I figured I might aswell just work through lunch to get the 30 Reasons article finished [it was on the computers at college so I couldn't finish it over the weekend] Maria was all like 'Ohh no, you can't do thattt...' but quickly changed her tune, reminded me to get all her articles off the computer to put on my memory stick so I can 'do all the little changes' I also have to do the front cover and another advert Maria was meant to do.
As if I haven't got enough work.
Chase told me I shouldn't be doing other peoples work, and I know that...
But, because I know, they won't do it I have to finish it off otherwise I wont get a grade for that unit. Then I wont be able to finish my course.
It's like... I have no idea when my units will be done... Yknow...
I just feel so stressed.
What normally calms me down is having sex with Chase but because I'm on my frigging period I can't so I'm like snapping at anything and walking around all tense.
Tonight
I plan on downloading a nice movie, buying some ice cream and just chilling out and not thinking about assignments or work. Maybe.
By the wayyyy
