I now have draft responses for two of the exam question theme things. Our lecturer didn't tell us the questions, but what the questions would be on. So yes, hopefully I'll be alright. We get a choice out of 8, and have to answer two of the questions. So..technically, that's all I really need to do. BUT, I'm going to prepare for at least one more question, just in case.
I feel like I'm totally half assing this because my essay that I wrote for this unit actually corresponds so the two questions I'm preparing for..so I just split my essay and copied and pasted relevant bits under the different headings. -_- Don't worry, I'll refine it soon. I've written down the things I need to add/edit from it, so it should be good.
I think I'm going to try and focus on not freaking out. I'm pretty stressed at the moment actually. I don't feel like I'm doing enough study, and this is political economy which makes it worse, and I'm stressing about a whole bunch of other stupid things too. Urgh.
Breathe in, breathe out.
Hope all your exam prep/assessments are going well.

I've pretty much done nothing for a week.
Well no. I pulled my lectures off e-learning and like...mentally planned how i was going to attack this. But in practical terms, that = nothing.
I need to up my self discipline. Seriously.
Let's hope tomorrow is better, because if I don't start tomorrow, then it's going to be super panic time. Wish me luck guys. Garh.
2 weeks until I'm done!

So you're all probably thinking 'BAH! she's stopped blogging AGAIN!' but it's holidays now, so I can sit here blogging all day if I want to. =D
Since it's 10:30 I decided to have a nice quick one before I go on one of my usual eBay mania posts tomorrow. Or the day after depending on when I'm home. In any case, I present 10 random facts. Hopefully 10. I just decided 10 because people usually use 10 for lists like this. or 100. but I couldn't think of 100 random facts even if I tried.
1. I am currently watching 39 things on eBay. I will share some of the things I'm watching in my next post.
2. I felt good doing a presentation for the first time ever last Tuesday. Well, I had doubts as usual, but I think it was one of the better ones. woo! 3. I have an addiction to phoenix wright. This lawyerish nintendo ds game. It's EPIC!! I even fangirled really hard when I saw people cosplaying as him and his daughter at Animania. I'm such a nerd. I even took a picture! =P
4. I shop better with my parents because I reckon they're less judgemental with what I like/buy =P
5. Facebook no longer has my number one spot on google chrome. Any guesses what is number one now?
6. I know my exam timetable now, and I finish on the 19th. I have exams on the 10th, 13th, and 19th, so plenty of time to study! weeee. Shame I finish after Lauren's birthday though. =[
7. The other day I was wearing my black buckley flats, and I had two bandaids on and everything. Within 10 minutes my shoes had ripped through the bandaids and thrashed my feet. no joke. IT WAS PAAAAIN!
8. I think mummies had the right idea, wearing bandages and all. They don't need to waste their time with ineffective bandaids. Yes, I'm feeling bitter. XD
9. That dust storm made my throat hurt for a day. Awesome, right? It was funny though, I saw more people wearing face masks that day than I ever did for the whole swine flu thing.
10. It is 58 minutes past this number at the moment I am writing this. =D
Okay. That's it folks, I'm going to go nom on some mango now.
Go eat some moon cake btw, it's that lovely time of year after all!
Talk soon. xx Labels: eBay, exams, filler, random

It's 2 in the afternoon and I haven't done any study. It's annoying because I want to get it done just so it's over and done with, but I'm dreading just doing it because it's a pain doing something you don't want to do. I just have no self discipline. =D
I received the jacket from eBay. It's nice, and warm, and fits. I was wearing about a kazillion layers though. I seriously have such a weak resistance to the cold. I'm like, permanently hugging a hot water bottle, massively rugged up, and killing the electricity bill with my heater-ing ways. Global warming doesn't sound too bad to me. Hahahh. Just kidding. >.>
Only 13 more days to suffer through until exams are over. I seriously can't wait til the holidays. I'm gunna go NUTS. My camera will be prety happy too. It's been deprived of a lot of action during the semester. I'm sure you guys will appreciate it too since you'll get to look at pretty pics instead of reading about my boring life. =D
Wanna hear my plans for the holidays? I love planning, especially during exam time. Gives you something to look forward to [and to torture yourself with while you're actually suffering through exams..]
- See friends + roger - Steal roger's acoustic. ahahha. - Clean out my closet and sell, sell, SELL!!! - ...Get my driving up to scratch. I still can't go into parking places in shopping centres. LOL. - Experience the city's nightlife and go a bit crazy. Just to live a little! - Start putting some of my more creative ideas into action. [This is something I'm VERY keen on doing, so once I do it, I'll show you what it is. Mysterious, huh?]
Okay, enough procrastinating. Time to study! [a.k.a. go on eBay a bit..] Love much, xx Labels: exams, holidays, uni

Profile
I am Duong.
According to UrbanDictionary, I am a:
"noun: last name or vietnamese for sugar.
i want some Duong in my lemonade!"
But, Duong is my first name. And you probably wouldn't want me in your lemonade. =P
I am also 20. I attend Sydney Uni. My drink of choice is coke. And my desk is my makeshift wardrobe.
I am attached. I have a one person strong stalker base ;). and the only edible thing coming out of my kitchen is cookies.
Oh. I can also be a very sporadic blogger and enjoy taking random hiatuses. oops. =D
I am also very bad at writing profiles, so...I'll spare you. =]
