About school, crafts and summer jobs

I've felt a bit off after grandfather's funeral two weeks ago. Like something's not right, I'm floating, I feel like I'm forgetting something all the time.
...
And then I feel worried about these headaches I've got. I'm keeping a so called headache diary, but how often is too often when it comes to headaches? It's really annoying, more than anything else.

The stress state I feel like I'm in makes me want to eat all the time, and it's extremely annoying, because I've lost two kilos since January, and I don't want to gain them back. But all I need is a bit of will-power and a treat now and then.

School's going well, there's nothing really to worry about there, but I'm still stressing about some of the exams that are already looming, and that gets me cranky sometimes, because there's nothing too much to worry about. I've already got enough study points not to lose my student allowance. And I'm pretty sure I'll pass most of the exams easy, or if not easy, then without too much stressing. I'm just annoyed with the Grammar 1 course, because I can't get the terms inside my head.

Enough whining, this was supposed to be a light entry. :P

I've been making cowls, and I just love it. I've made one for mum and another for myself. They're so quick and easy to make, you can play around with yarn or doing cables. Then I've got this lace shawl, I've been making for ages and feel too lazy finishing it - and I've only got three more lines in the model to make! But next I think, I'll finish my little vest, because it is older, and easier. ;)

I'd already almost settled with the idea that I'd not be getting even invitations to any summer job interviews, and I've been more active than ever about trying to get them, but I've got an interview tomorrow, so I'm feeling carefully optimistic. This is the first summer I'd have to seriously get money from somewhere, because I'm worried about my rent and food. I would prefer to earn my own keep, but if that doesn't happen, I can go to the social services... But I don't like that idea.

Anyways, now I'll go over to my book blog and write a bit about The Bluest Eye.

  1. Good luck with the exams! <3

    Those headaches sound really worrying, have you seen a doctor yet? D:

    I hope you get the job, I know how it feels to stress about money... and the social services... well, it's not nice to go there, fill all those papers, and wait, and wait... -.-

    Anyway. Be strong, hun, and take care of yourself. <3

    1. I've seen a nurse, but I think I should go to the doctor too... Maybe after Easter.

      I hope so, too. And thanks.
      I'm glad there is a proper social service system, but it's my pride that won't like the idea... ^^;

      Thank you. I will. You do that, too. <3
