Day 21

Cecelia: We are running around a public park in Clayton with bare feet in falling darkness, how do you feel?
Binny: YOLO-y!
Binny and I went for a 2 hour ..walk? walk is too boring a word, we went on an adventure! we walked to a park and played on play equipment for a long while, then we did an odd triangular blocky, complete with creepy snapchats of sams house, then we went to the top of the menzies and looked into my bedroom window and took photos, then we visited Sam and Earl and then Jay-ran back to mannix.
Maybe its the exercise, but I have had the most encouraging and productive study day today!
By the way, Happy age number day!

 

 

Day 40

I think I have become more zen in my young age. Before I used to want to scream and cry and throw things when my computer/ sewing machine/ telephone/ family member wasn't doing what I wanted it too. But now I have come to accept that if I walk away, give it space, turn it off and on again and say loving things (that last one mostly works with the sewing machine), then it will run smoothly.
A word of warning: if you stare at my eyes for too long they get hella creepy.

Day 39

Someone asked me today if I am feeling nostalgic about college because its drawing to a close. I haven't been feeling nostalgic, I have mostly been excited by the prospect of moving into a house next year and doing all the things I cant at college (cook, play sport, sleep, have a vege patch, go out for coffee). As I look at today's photo, of the mixture of friendship groups all relaxing together, of the variety of food that was being eaten and of the complete lack of needing to do anything or be anywhere, I feel a bit of that nostalgia creeping in. I am definitely going to miss college.

Day 38

Uuurrrgghhhhh!! I am sick. On the plus side I don't have gastro (yet). People at college are dropping like flies. Do you ever have one of those days that are good, and yet small sucky things happen? that was yesterday, I swore that I ran into about 30 red lights going to Uni and back. Today was the opposite, I felt crappy all day, but my all time favourite episode of 'say yes to the dress' was on, it lifted my spirits and restored my faith in humanity.*
Fun fact: in my journey to University and back, there are 46 sets of traffic lights.

*yes, it is possible for a wedding dress show to be inspirational. don't judge it till you've seen it.

Day 37

Past Cecelia is currently current Cecelia and current Cecelia has a dilemma about whether or not future Cecelia is going to think Past Cecelia is thoughtless moron.
Should I stay up and make memories, or should I go to bed to stave off my oncoming cold?

Day 36

Tonight was committees first, and as I enjoyed my last JCR function I thought a few things that I would like to share with you. the first is a terrible realisation that I had; None of my friends know the words to wannabe, by the spice girls. Why? because they were all born in the mid 90's! its unacceptable.
The second is a moment in time that I love. It is the point in the evening when everyone one has either passed out, or are shredding up the D-Floor, and the girls bathroom is left blissfully quiet. why girls feel the necessity to squeal as loudly as they can in a confined space is beyond me, but that moment of silence is made all the more sweeter for it.
