September blues

Where in the world did the time go?!

it's already the 2nd week of September and it'll only be a matter of time before 

I start putting up depressed posts about chronic caffeine jitters and sleep deprivation again.

Watching kids walk to school makes me depressed. (Reminder of what i'll be doing myself in 3 weeks time)

Watching the sun set at 7.30 instead of 9.30

and the days go on the calendar makes me depressed.

Watching the temperatures drop  

and the empty beach makes me depressed.

The whole end-of-summer process makes me so freaking depressed.

Either way I'm quite pleased with how this summer has gone by.

Productive.

Well, not quite considering I still have an entire dissertation draft to write by the first day of term 

(and I was supposed to have done this in the last three months..hah! typical! procrastinateprocrastinateprocrastinate!)

3 months of Me-time after what I personally thought was a disconnected year,and I could not have been more grateful to have been able to sleep like a complete pig (6pm waking time still the record, people!beat that!), 'breathe', live, think and discover. Oh God just listen to me speak, I feel like I've aged by 30 years over the past 2 years. I'm so sure that I'm going to end up with a brain that's fit for the antique store by the time i turn 23.

Shove the worrying aside, i made a 5 minute decision to hop onto the Venice field trip next week. It's meant to be a whole study trip (You know, live-eat-breathe-shit-architecture)  but i'm pretty sure all of us who are going just want to squeeze out the last remnants of the summer hol before all brain screws pop loose in September.
(live-eat-breathe-drink-party-venice!).
