The mid semester break isn't exactly suppose to be a break. It's the school's way of torturing you. They hurl a thousand and one assignments at you, then say, oh yea, and here's a 1 week leave from classes. So what do they actually really expect you to do in this one week? Not rest. No. No such thing. You're students. Rest and relaxation shld never appear in your schedule, like, ever. The idea of the 'one week break' is there to con you into thinking that the school cares for your well-being.

But I don't know why I'm complaining. I have nth to do this week. This week which is my 1 week break. I cld do forward log readings. Work on my oral presentation which is 3 or 4 weeks away. Start thinking about my essays and my impending radio packages. I cld. But I'm not. Which is probably not the best move. Mid semester was not this relaxing last semester. It shldn't be this semester. Doing forward log work is healthy for you, Val. Evenly spread-out work is goooood (chants).

So anyway, I kicked off my 1 week break by not going for most of my classes last week. Ha! And I expect to get myself 4 HDs this semester. GOOD LUCK, ALTER EGO. Aaaanyway, it all started with not going for classes and heading off on a 2 day roadtrip along the Great Ocean Road with Sfee, JT and Mani. As I've mentioned. Yes, I got back alive. Thankfully. And it was quite a blast! :) Many thanks to Sfee for organising the whole thing and all for the wonderful company. I had the most amazing high, which I didn't really get to exploit to my full advantage, but lets not get all angsty about it. Good things will come eventually! :)

I guess it's time I do some work to ease my load when semester starts again. Some shots from the roadtrip to go!
