Procrastinating again

Since I have started my fourth year of uni I have fallen catastrophically behind on writing up my lectures. In my defense I attended the majority of them and only missed them when I was unwell. Still - the end of the term hit and I am drowning in work that I need to catch up on. But Sophie - if you've attended them and made notes whilst you were there then surely you can't be behind. Oh but I can. My degree is a medical one which means a lot of content is crammed into every tiny moment that I have at uni which is very hard to cram for an exam (and believe me I've tried). So why am I telling you this? Well it is nearly new year's eve and I should be doing something productive and should have been "doing a bit of work each day to ease the strain". Have I?

Half way there

As of the 15th of July 2016 I have officially finished and passed my third year at university. Whilst most of my friends are graduating now I still have another 3 years of my course to go. This is both exciting and terrifying. I think it's easy in life to get hung up on what other people are doing. My friends are graduating and ready to move onto full fledged adult life. The daily grind of working, saving for their own home or even settling down. A part of me feels jealous. The excitement of the next steps and of achieving that goal is exhilarating. The other part of me is relieved that I can keep myself in this semi adult life. As a semi adult student I don't have the worries of job hunting especially considering the current issues going on in the UK. I also have the joys of keeping my university friends tethered to me for just that little bit longer. No matter what the future brings I wish the very best for my friends and hope they get what they deserve. Take care...
