Finished with a bang

aahhhhh finally the 1st semester is officially over....and what an ending!!! I haven't slept for 72hours, except for maybe a maximum of 2hrs of rest (lying on the stairs.. I've found out it's effective for back pain), standing on my legs... and as a result my calves are thicker than those of La Scala's ballet etoile... drawing!!! And no it's not because I had some divine inspiration, I just had a deadline to hand in my surveying drawing. Now thanks to it all I can see are dots, everywhere I look!

Neway, I've finished everything just in time, and guess what?!?!.... I fainted, was hauled over to the doctor by my parents and was told that I was suffering from stress and fatigue (wow!!! you need to be an MD to be able to diagnose that!!) apart from the usual stuff about low blood pressure. To top it off I was to spend the whole weekend on my back, in bed!! I had no intention of following this advise, however my mum, being the perfect product of her time and always faithful to the teachings of the strict nuns who used to supervise her at the hospital, did not allow me to fall out (pun intended) of this "agreement". So basically here I am, stuck in bed, with my drafts rolled up in a corner, as if they're trying to tease me and tell me that there was no need for me to stress myself so much in trying to get them finished on time, coz I was not able to hand them in just the same. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!

But that's life ey... at times it does not follow its original course and takes some twisted route. Anyway, now that all my assignments are finally over, I'm feeling much lighter ... and no, they're not the vertigo symptoms coming back... it's the great feeling of not having to have something ready for the next week... and now that's what I call bliss.. the only pity is that I could not go out to some pub with my friends on Friday night. Tonight I'll get a taste to remember what life is (thank God Florence nightingale, aka my mum, is a bit lenient today) and then sometime next week I'll celebrate the real way :)Hehe

Take care guys

PS: I'm attaching a pic of the famous pitted stone... it's a killer to get together!!
