Hm.. During this point in the year, I'd normally be feeling exhilarated and totally into my work. But a sudden wave of homesick-ness just struck me. Now where did that come from?
Things have changed over the last few months since I landed back here in Melbourne. I lost a lot of my supports from the past year so I'm now officially on my own. The emotional support I have gathered over the past years in Melbourne are now gone. Even my best buddy is so busy that we have drifted quite a bit despite some efforts and a few calls in between the craziness.
I took the plunge and almost hit the bottom of the pool. Hell, Masters is even deeper a shit than Honours. It's killing me. Now I understand the importance of a fantastic supervisor. I miss Dr. Ben Williams! :/ He should give his interpersonal skills more credit. Maybe there are too many distractions (assignments every bloody week) that lure me away from really getting excited about my current research project (Uh, what is that I'm doing again?). I can barely explain what I'm doing.
I have two more exams to go before the "end of the semester" which technically doesn't exist because there will be seminars and placements starting in July, IF the Deakin staff can get themselves together that is. They tell us that we can only take 2 to 3 weeks off in the summer but haven't even managed to find us placements yet. What's taking so damn long man? Like WTF? Do you want us to do it or not? I want to get a headstart so I can take break later. The reason why you'll only give us a short summer break is coz YOU can't find us placements, not because WE start late -.-
There is a difference between being lazy and being obstructed because of TECHNICALITIES caused by YOU.
Damn Damn Damn Damn Damn Damn!
As you can see, I'm feeling extremely frustrated. And these feelings don't help with my feeling more comfortable towards this course and the people in-charge. Geez, get on with it already. Is there a money back guarantee I can apply for???????
"You must attend 90% of the classes"
Well fuck you. I learned more in THIRD YEAR than I learned shit in these past 3 months. And my coursemates wonder why I fall asleep sitting upright.
I hope the placements will be better coz at the moment, the coursework sucks ass.
Damn it.
