Distraction & my boring holidays.

I'm distracted again. I never seem to work as efficiently at home as I do at university. Well for coursework and stuff anyway, I guess revising is easier here. I've had 3 days of long, hard work. I've finished making notes on one module and I'm a third through another. But I have a coursework floating over head making me panic. But not panic so much that I can get my head into 100% focus mode. 


I'm distracted. I'm not sure why. Maybe it's because I've been concentrating hard for a very long time. Maybe they're right; you should have breaks every now and again. I think I'd be okay if I could just have a chat now and again with you, and that would be my break. I know I've never talked to you through here before, but me writing down my distractions usually helps and I'm hoping that it might pull through for me once again. 


 Lots has been happening lately. Weddings, birthdays, funerals, you name it. It's the Easter holidays. This week, my days have consisted of getting up around 10 or 11, either showering, going somewhere for half an hour with my Mom or faffing about for a while, and then around 12 or 1 I start with the revision. Revision from 1 until 11 at night, which a distraction around 5pm when my Dad comes homes from work. I watch the Big Bang Theory from 12 - 1 every night and then go to bed. And then exactly the same thing happens the next day and the next day. It's not very amusing but I guess it's just what has to be done. 


 My parents keep mentioning that I have to play some golf before I go back. Considering I'm going back in less than two weeks and this week the weather is meant to be terrible - and I feel bad if I spend more than two hours and I haven't done any work in that time - I can't see it happening. But I know that won't make them happy. I should probably enjoy it more than I do. Not that I don't like it. It just isn't a priority in my life.  


Grandad is 80 today. Chris said "he's been 65 for 10 years!" It made me laugh. You'd never tell. Well, it's starting to show now; well, ever since last year, after what happened... Kate said that you expect them to be around forever even though you should know they won't be. It was a bit depressing really, not something that I'd like to be talking about - not just when there isn't someone else around anyway. Anyway, Grandad seemed happy enough. We're having a get together thing on Friday for it, because it's the bank holiday. 


Although I can think of lots of things I'd like to tell you, I think they can wait for now - I better do some more work now.


I miss you. Hope you're having a good time - wherever you are.
