Tomorrow should be fun – or, the kidney saga continues.

Tomorrow doesn’t sound like it’s going to be a good day. I mean; it should be – it’s my first Monday free forever from college, so it’s a Monday where I shouldn’t need my alarm on, I should be able to sleep in all day or lie around doing nothing – but, alas, I have to go to the hospital to have another scan on my kidneys. It’s really painful so I’m guessing that as soon as I get home, I’ll be in my pyjamas and under my quilt all day, so expect many self-pitying blogs (hey, so what else is new?!) tomorrow. You have my permission to ignore everything I post.

I’ll only hold it against you forever.

Still, things could be worse – at least I’m one step closer to eliminating what isn’t wrong with me and finding out what is, and hopefully it’s residual pain that will fade soon. When I look at things in perspective, I’m lucky – I’m still alive, I have my family, I have my future ahead of me. There’s always something to be thankful for, and I have a lot of somethings 🙂

Why do exams even exist?

Beware me today, for I am full of teenage angst (which really isn’t as fun as Wizard angst, props if you get the reference). Revision is slowly divorcing my soul from my body and I am trying to keep thinking about that wonderful moment a week tomorrow when my exams will be over… and then I will have the wait for results.

Revision Day (warning, may contain sweary gifs)

Today is going to be a revision day for me. Revision days are always a funny kind of day, because you start off really motivated like –

And then your revision comes at you and you’re like, “I’ll start in a bit” –

You drag yourself to your bag to get your revision notes for a different subject.

Then you look in your bag and realize just how much revision you have to do.

So, you start writing. You manage two minutes, three at the most, and feel like you’ve just climbed Everest, cured world hunger, brought about eternal peace and written a 10,000 word dissertation on the preservation of cute widdle hedgehogs in the Forest of Dean.

… then you realize how much more work you’ve got to do, and just how soon your exams are.

 

This cycle repeats itself throughout the day, and this will form my day in a nutshell. It will end like this.
