scholarshipexcitement afterglow

ok, i am still completely overstimulated from winning the scholarship. i have to go to Award Ceremonies, and things like that! yay!

and career mentorship is comming up, and i have the perfect person to apply for mentorship with, who i already know, and which would surely be helpful in getting a real job - my aim is to get one before the end of first year, so i have get the final semester of my degree, not covered by my special- money, paid for also. either that, or i'll use the money to invest in a short term low interest account - it ain't going to double in numbers but should rise a little bit, enough to take a slight dint out of my significant uni debt.

this semster is about Digging In My Heals.

and Prioritising.

which is as follows:

1. most important - take care of mental-health. continue with therapy. look after self. take time out to make art, to knit, to sit, to think. this is important.

2. closely followed by - look after close relationships - lachlan, and closest friends. this includes small but important things, like keeping our room clean (ish) doing dishes, offering to help cook, etc, as well as all other important relationship stuff.

3. uni. my aim, optimistically, is a university medal. which is awarded for straight 7's. now, i know that if i put my mind to it, this is within the realm of possiblity. however, my lowest possible marks will be 6's. this is the lowest i'll let myself go, because i am going to work my Arse off.

4. work. yes, i know, lowest priority. but both jobs are temporary places until i get where i am going.

priorites done.

now, working.

i am going to be seriously AFK for the next year and a half.

but, i have places, and i am Getting there.
