Hello Everybody,
I just realised the weirdest thing: I've been back in the Netherlands for 7 weeks now. Time flies like a fighter jet these days.
It is reading week, week 8, thursday I have an exam and the day after a deadline. Oh the joy. Strangely enough though I am now feeling quite confident about it. There is only one chapter of the required reading I do not understand at all. So if that is the only thing going wrong on my exam I can still pass the course pretty comfortably. This course is only half a semester so if I pas, excuse me WHEN I pass, I will have only 2 days of uni left a week. University sometimes really seems like a breeze. I might use this time to do other things like Search for a topic for my bachelor dissertation, try to find a job, go to the gym(highly unlikely) or maybe even find a place I can work that can function as a sort of internship. That would be cool. Right now I am avoiding resposibility for a moment. in 10 minutes I will go down to the cafeteria to read and wait for my essay writing partner. I have to read like 4 more chapters for an exam I have to make somewhere this week, it doesn't count for anything though but it is nice to see if I get it or not. Lessons in Literature, sound amazing, I know!
After this week I hope my rythm is back and I am in the study flow again so I can confidently finish this semester and go on to my final year as a bachelor student. It makes me kind of nervous to think about it. especially with the educational minor coming up as well. What if I suck at teaching? could happen. I have already been thinking of approaches to take on my lessons, but we'll see how it plays out. I have to get accepted first anyway. If I don't I'll just do the translation minor, or maybe something completely different.
I know my last blog seemed a bit depressing but I swear to god it was only a momentary thing. I am feeling much more confident now and being in the library really gets my study hormones running. The tostis here are magnificent and so is the coffee so in my breaks I have something to look forward to. I still have less breaks than study hours so don't worry about me prioritising tostis.
I have started working out at home so me prioritising tostis is not a good idea anyway. I am getting into the healthy food thing and even making drinks at home to keep the bad sugars and stuff out. It might even be cheaper in some ways. I trying to really manage my money a bit better since next year I will be losing part of my government money, meaning I have quite a lot less to spend every month. So less alcohol, less candy, less unnecessary knickknacks, less shopping. Less of a lot. Also I am trying to either make sure i don't have leftovers or make sure I eat my leftovers. But that seems to be a more difficult task than I expected so I am taking it slow on that one, I just get bored with food, I don't wanna eat the same thing twice. So I am trying to use the leftovers to make something slightly different.
Thankfully my herbs are growing too so some day I won't have to spend money on that anymore.
Have a nice tuesday,
Bye
