My past month has passed mainly studying. Constantly. All the time. I've done countless number of essays, have managed to finish my experiment (which had no statistically important results according to the SPSS program), I wrote my seminary work project. Have done couple of presentations. Besides school, I've been to work as well. And cycled around tiny bit.
I signed myself up to the bike marathon the end of May (only the 65km distance, though. I got an exam the following day- can't afford to spend a whole day cycling, unfortunately).
I went to the students' singing festival, which was brilliant as usually. And again, I managed to come back from a singing festival with an injured right foot. Had to go to the emergency. I had had a blister on my heel for couple of weeks which had turned into a bit disgusting looking one. I had a plaster on it which was supposed to heal it. But then, at the singing festival someone slipped on the hillside and went straight into my blister with their legs. Yeah, guess how much that hurt. But after 5 mins it all went numb and I couldn't feel anything. So I sang 'til the festival finished and then started walking towards home. I felt that my sock was wet and decided to look- it was all red from blood. So me and my mates walked home and then checked my leg. It was a blood-blister a little bit broken but still had lots of blood in it. So yeah, my doc-roommate told I should go to the emergency and get it cleaned. In the emergency the doctors were a bit angry with me because I hadn't gone to see them earlier - see, I had an infection in the leg as well. So they tied my leg up and told me not to walk much. Come on people! You should know me by now! A tiny injury can't stop me! Or can it? Anyway, the following day, as I had no proper shoes which were opened from the back, I went to school with high heels. Walked around the whole day. And then I went to the village in the evening. On Friday I was supposed to go to the doc again to get my leg checked. By that time I had a tiny fever as well. The doc said I should call in sick from work. So yeah, I still stayed at work on that day and even danced a little bit (even though I could actually hardly walk, but f**k that s**t!) and then went back to Tartu the following day. As I cleaned my injury again on Saturday, I saw that my whole ankle was nicely swollen up (you know, even more nicely that when I had my stretched ligament- on the same ankle, by the way) and the blister was now just a flesh wound. Looked pretty disgusting. I thought it would be funny to send the pic of my leg to my mum as well, just for fun. That definetely was a mistake- she was freaking out and telling that my leg is gonna fall off now and that I'm gonna die soon. Ehehhehe. The most annoying thing was that she didn't leave me alone 'til I went to the doc again to get my leg checked. Obviously there was nothing wrong, but still I had to go to the doc for the 3rd time in 1 week. Come on, that's just annoying. And then I had to go to my own doc yesterday as well (had to go to Võru for that). And I have to go again on Friday to get it checked again. Annoying. At least I found out that I can still donate blood in June and also participate in the marathon. I think I might be able to cycle to Tartu from work on Sunday as well. Or at least I hope (the weather has to be good for this).
My off-sick-from-work has been actually good for me- I managed to get in line with all my homework again, started to study for the exams and I'm feeling pretty good. Still got some extra stuff to do that I wasn't planning to do in the beginning. The thing is- my old school asked me to go there and tell them about my life after I graduated from there. You know, what have I done, where have I been and blablabla. But now I discovered that I have to give 2 classes for 11-12 year-olds. Yeah, what could I tell them? I have absolutely no idea.... So I have to figure out those 2 classes now. Maybe some games? Or some storytelling about voluntary work? I can't tell them the stuff I was thinking of telling. Gosh, another extra assignment besides work. How lovely!And well, now my exams are starting and I've got absolutely no life coming until the end of May. Then I'm gonna dye my hair rainbow and go to Couchsurfing party in Riga and support Lauris in the Baltic Pride as well :) Should be fun.
But until then- 8 exams in 3 weeks. Plus couple of presentations. Sleep is for the weak indeed!
Anyway, gotta go to read a book about drugs now. Scientifical. It's actually a really good book, I can tell ya.
In the meanwhile- eat loads of caffeine tablets and you'll get it goin', people.
