So, here I am with the five vices meme, as started by Rachael, tagged by Nellie and Aisling. They’re fighting over me! *is gleeful*

Coke
I like my fizzy drinks, and Coke is my favourite. I can drink it like nobody’s business. Normally this is okay, except when I drank a whole two and a half litres at ten at night. I spent the whole night humming songs, twiddling my thumbs, and going to the bathroom.

The Internet
I have an addiction. But it’s not a problem! Well, except for the fact I never go out nowadays, am pale as snow from not getting any sun, and I’ll probably destroy my hands from typing so much. But whatever.

Nailbiting
It’s disgusting and I hate it, but I still do it, especially when I am stressed.

Procrastination
I’ll get to it… eventually!

Distraction
… I’m sorry, I got distracted by… stuff.

Okay, and who shall I tag… Erin, Kaylee… I think that’s all, since everyone seems to be doing it already.

 

A Scarfie in the Wrong City

It’s always a delight to get mail that’s not from the uni, the bank or something else to do with me not having any money, so there was a big smile when my package from my friend Kirsti finally arrived.

As you can see, the present was a lovely made-by-Kirsti scarf and since it is too warm here for me to use it right now, it is instead being modelled by the lovely Cheer Bear. It also came with a note, part of which read:

Anyway, I thought I’d send you this as a Scarfie at a new uni, I figured you’d need a new scarf! I hope you like the colours - but then again, you did help me pick them out!

I do love the scarf, Kirsti, and I love the colours - although at the time I wasn’t picking them for me! Thank you! It’ll help me colour up my winter wardrobe.

In other news, I am all finished registering with the university, and I start on Monday. I’m already registered with Disability Support Services, too. The anti-depressants have started set in and my concentration has started to come back, and I am sleeping better than I have in years. There is, however, a new diagnosis of PTSD, which is a bummer. But better I know, I guess.

So a whole new adventure starts on Monday. The final years of my degree, hopefully!

Wish me luck!
