So, after attending all my classes in the first week, I realised that I had the same lecturer/ tutor for 2 of my subjects. Not only was he a boring and lame lecturer that read notes, he was rude, he was racist towards the asian students and he had this ridiculous laugh... that he would make after every sentence he spoke, thinking he had made some funny joke!

This guy thought he'd be funny by giving me some essay topic that no one wanted. When everyone else had not decided on what tutorial paper they wanted, he looked around the room for people who did know what they wanted to do ...then ignored them. Honestly this guy was a f*ckn GRONK!

Anyway, he had me stressed out over my freakin subjects. I didn't wana be in his classes for 6 hrs a week.

So...after all the emails, and a confirmation from the course coordinator from the Parra Campus, i hurried my ass up to hand in the program variation forms.  I dropped this stupid subject, which caused me even more head ache and stress.

Here's where my boyfriends support helped me. I was going crazy, reconsidering my majors then finding out all these things about Majors and sub majors and Level 1,2 and 3 subjects and so on.

So in Week 2, I speak to one of my economic Lecturers. He was all cool about everything. Told me that i should have done F.I.M. So, i fired another email.

Speaking about my situation, 2 Lecturers advised that i pick FIM. So i do. I run off yet again to the student centre, lodging another program variation before census.

Then i find out that you are not supposed to do more than 10 level 1 units in your entire DEGREE. So, i write another email, in which the coordinator confirms with me that it is true, however the rules will be bent for me because i am following the official subject sequence.

 

  So, this has completely changed my plans. Initially, I was to complete a double major in my degree of B Business & Commerce.

I was supposed to do Banking and Finance and Human Resource Management and Industrial Relations. But this combination is very rare, so all my subjects clash every semester. I have realised that with a double major there is no room for flexibility. Just say, i needed to pick up a pre-req...i wouldnt have room for that because my electives are taken up by cores. Sounds so freakin complicated....it is!

So now, i've decided to just complete the 1 major in Banking and Finance. I've chosen to do a Sub major in HRM & IR instead.

This confusion has prevented my mind from settling. I've had 1 presentation assessment completed last week. Now i need to hand in an essay tomorrow.

It seems as though i was never on holiday. Everything in the past 2 weeks has raised the stress level back up to high.

Goal for next 3 month holiday....DONT WORK SO FREAKIN MUCH.

Think about it kids. You've got the rest of your lives to work....work all you want. You will never again get a 3 month holiday, unless you ask for it or you're unemployed.

Working= more money= greed= more wants= more spending

In the end you have the same amount of money. Like what are u trying to do? Earn all the money out there in the world. ok so do that. THen tell me when you're gona spend it....koz i'll help...koz u wont have time to spend it because you'll be working ,..AGAIN making more money.

Work sux. People there are like grumpy every single day of the week. Its like the transfer of emotion....you go to work happy, at the end of the day u're grumpy as hell koz everyone around you is. But they go home happy because they've been around you......

 I NEED TO GET OUT OF RETAIL...& INTO MORE RETAIL THERAPY!!!
