i feel that everything that could go wrong this week has already gone wrong-and it's only a Tuesday. this sad type of feeling, not emotionally sad, but an "argh" type of sad

exam timetables came out yesterday, and it's ok spaced out, some a day after another. what luck-another exam on a saturday, but it's the day of my dance concert! and it's end of year concert, so rehearsals are compulsory, and i wouldn't feel confident without rehearsing on the big stage. one of my exams is right in the middle of the day, and i also won't be able to make it back for the opening dance. i don't know how to tell my teacher...i'm not in the important positions, but there would still be a gap...if i did my other dances and not the opening, i still would have to go classes but i'd waste half my time there since i won't be in the opening anymore. i know it's exams>dance, esp it's imperative i can't get supps this sem, but they don't see it like that. like all those yr 12's w/ their hsc still do out of school dance 4 times a week...and i really like the dances we're doing this time, the choreographer is really good...so that really sucks...

also, the official unsw exam date end on 22nd nov, but then we receive an announcement that there is a possibility that our prac exam is the 24th. so lucky i didn't book my flight that day...i guess it's good to be in the last slot for the prac exam since you have more time to study, but i was planning to finalise everything and what not for the trip...

then my printer broke last night :'( i was just printing stuff, and it said it got jammed. and then there was paper stuck inside which my bro pulled out, but it didn't pull out "cleanly" and i think a corner is stuck inside the machine. my dad tried taking it apart, but there's only a certain extent which can take it apart. i don't have any hand in assignments due (most of mine are online these days), but it has really thrown me off track and behind in work. and my mum was nice enough to go buy a new printer for me today, but they didn't have any stock until thursday ):

also had another tonometry prac today (measuring eye pressures), and i don't think i used my time as well ): still can't get a proper grip of it, sucks having small hands. too bad we don't get access to it until out prac exam. also used an old dodgy instrument today instead of the nice new ones. it's so easy to say "be stable", but doing it it's really hard. i guess i can practice by holding awkward objects near someone's eyes/face and make sure i don't shake...and it's only a 5min prac exam per person. really dislike these time limits. also, my partner kind of destroyed my cornea today, so tonight my right eye is blurry. what's worse is that since it's not the inside of my eye making my visn blurry but the outside, i can't wear my ortho-k lenses tonight, so i won't be able to see tomorrow. and i was planning to have a fully productive day tomorrow at home, but one clear and one blurry eye just throws you off...

also, i really hate group work. why does no one respond? it's also due in 2 weeks, and it's a debate involving 12 people per group, but don't people realise that it's about a 30min debate per team? that's a lot of research, and i really doubt we can find a mutual time to meet up in the break...i mean it's already hard these days even meeting up with friends, since people have work/other commitments

my mid sem break next week is also non-existent. 2 days of uni, work, eyeball, and that's most of the week gone.

the list was longer, but i'll just suck it up, and power on tomorrow, with blurry eyes and no printer...sorry to bore you w/ trivial matters, but these have been playing around in my head all day ):
