The Cosmic Droop and other afflictions

The General Education 102 exam yesterday went well, I may have completely screwed up the essay section ( I've never been very good at writing on the fly) but otherwise I did alright. Yet again, it took them about half an hour to hand out the papers. Look, I understand they have to open the paper packs once everyone is seated, but are you telling me noone thought of bringing a pair of sissors? Or planning how the papers would be handed out? Or quickly going over the seating arrangement yet again for those too dull to understand a seating plan? (How did these people finish high school, never mind get into Varsity, in the first place?) I was sitting next to the window again so the half hour delay gave me a chance to sun myself (more sun than I've had in the past year combined). No exam today, but 'African Languages and Worldview' tommorrow so I guess I had better learn it - grrr.

I have noticed that a certain food group is becoming my downfall - ice-cream. I had more of it yesterday. I have no doubt that I am going to discover I have put on weight this week. The insanity must end. Speaking of OBP, I had a fitness breakthrough on Friday - 15min run! I nearly killed myself but the endorphin high was great!

 

After chatting to my beloved last night while making dinner I have discovered that he doesn't know what OMT or OBP stand for, in case he is not the only one afflicted, here is the refresher course:

OMT = Operation Masking Tape, my plan to move in an organised fashion, incorporating clutter control..

OBP = Operstion Bench Press, the general mission to get into shape.

PC-wise, I should be getting my machine back today, praise be! But then again, HP have not been that realiable, so fingers crossed.

Emotionally, I must admit that today I am suffering from the cosmic droop. After getting some distressing news (a bit premature to share), I am questioning my plans for the next few years. I am probably overreacting completely but I've never been extremely quick to adapt to changes in The Plan. Overall, the experience has left me feeling a little out-of-sorts. More on this to follow.
Also to follow: I'm planning a new operation commencing after exams - I'll keep you posted.
