Weeks 22-27 halfway there!

Gawshhhh, cannot believe 2012 is over half gone... It feels like only yesterday that I moved to Adelaide, and now I've been here for almost half a year.
It's weird that although these experiences I've been having are completely different to what I'm used to, it feels so normal. I've finally adjusted to city life and definitely keen for my second semester at uni.
Again I've left this post for way too long so I'll dot point some of the highlights over the past month+ I also have a lot of uni reading to do so I'll make this one short and sweet :)


EXAMS
Not quite a highlight, but I have survived my first round of uni exams - sahhhh happeh!! They weren't nearly as difficult as I thought they would be, and way less stressful than highschool or HSC. I swear they put wayyyy too much pressure on you in your junior exams when really there are so many other pathways to get into uni - if that's even what you want to do - so there is no reason to be stressed at all.


Which leads me to my first actual highlight;


PASSED FIRST SEMESTER!!
Sooooooo relieved when results were finally released after days of checking and refreshing the webpage where they would be. I ended up with credits for both of my law topics and distinctions  for both of my psych topics, very happy with that!!!!
Now that I've fully settled in and don't have to worry so much on transitioning,I can concentrate more on my studies. I'm already so organised and on top of things with all my lecture notes printed out and ready to be further scrawled upon! I think if I aim for a distinction average this semester that that would be a realistic goal - wish me luck!!


BH VISIT
After all that hardwork studying hcore, holidays finally rocked up! And I spent 90% of it in BH hahaha. Was so good seeing all of my fambam and home friends, esp the bifffff HL!! :D
We went camping which was awesome fun. As well as lunch dates, going out, adventures, and other cute stuff.
My major achievement though was on out first day back where I FINALLY GOT MY PS!!! I could have cried I was so happy. Getting it at the start was v. convenient too as then I could drive everywhere and be great at life :)))))


CUTE UNI FRIENDS
After my visit home on the day we drove back I went to a movie night at one of my uni friends' house. It was so good to catch up with those guys as I hadn't seen them since exams! It was also really great of the first day back at uni last Monday seeing everyone and realising that I had lucked out and made so many friends. Actual v. v. lucky to have them <3
Also on the first Thursday back at uni, Lauris, Liam, and I, went to the Flinders O Week Toga Party. We dressed up in bronze silver and gold AND WON $100 FOR OUR COSTUMES!! So stoked, I was so proud!!

CUTE FRIENDS FROM HOME

Since being back in rads, I've seen quite a lot of the BH mob. Went out with Loz Nick and Tez one Thursday and had the best time! Also went to dinner with a big group of girls and went out afterwards (last night) and had so much fun. Did not realise how much I have missed these biddies!!!!
Super keen to have a big reunion some time!!!


Anywho I best be off, lots of reading to do for tomorrow.


Until next time,
Help me I'm poor!!!
