Do you ever have those moments of doubt where you’re not sure you’re on the right track? Where you feel you’ve completely off the mark and unattached to the work you’re doing? Yeah, that’s how I was feeling up until a couple of hours ago when I checked my assessment marks.
Going into the last assessment for the summer semester feels like I’ve had a little weight lifted off my shoulders. I might not have said this here before, but group work is the bane of my existence, and I actually thought our group was going to struggle to get our shit together and put in a half-arsed effort.
However, against the odds, we’ve managed to pull a distinction out for our troubles. The group worked well together and no one slacked off. It feels weird. I wasn’t expecting to do half as well for the content we created, but there you go. Not half bad at all.
Which means for this subject that I’m not keen on at all, I’ve actually done quite well so far. Now to keep the hard work up. Only one more assessment due. Time to hit it for six, and enjoy the couple of weeks between the summer and autumn semesters.
If I can get a decent night’s sleep that is. I feel like I complain about work all the time, but it isn’t the work – it’s the night shifts that suck the life out of me. If I do too many in a row, my sleeping pattern is fucked up so hard that my body thinks bed time is when the sun comes up. And waking up tired after a full eight hour Z-session just doesn’t feel good.
But hey, I’m writing instead of playing games at the moment. I’ll take my small victories where I can find them.
