Emptiness
It’s not a bad type of emptiness. It’s more of a feeling of joy, with a pinch of sadness. I’ve finished all class assessments, and now I have to wait two months to sit my exam. The emptiness is joyful, because it feels so liberating to not have the expectation to hand in work every week after spending 8 hours a week doing homework on conflict or world affairs.
It has a tinge of sadness though, because now, there is nothing there, every week will just be revision, and study. which will come down to my own discipline of studying and revising. I’m really bad with time management when it comes to homework. Although my last piece went off with a bang.
Seven pages of writings on Australian Foreign Policy. It was the only real homework I had done for the while first half of the second semester, and it was beautiful. It covered everything that I needed to know, It had more current issues in it, that without the help of Mikey, I would never have really known about.
I wish my exam was in a week or so though, not because i think i will ace it, but the excitement and adrenaline rush you get, sitting there, trying to do your best to get a number which determines your life.
Its made me love learning, which is something I never thought I would feel. Its to the point where next year I’m putting myself through all this again, Legal Studies, Geography, National Politics, Philosophy, Religion and Society. Two of these subjects will be by distant education though.
My time now though, will be spent studying and designing a website for a company that I’ve been meaning to do for the past 4 months. woops.
