As much as I love this time of year, unfortunately it can't be all fun and games. And whether you're at school, college or university, being a student in December is not as much fun as it seems because we are bang smack in the middle of deadlines and exams!
While the Christmas tunes and study breaks involving festivities are great, and I must say that this year in particular they have kept me up-beat, it's hard to properly let yourself embrace the joy when you're stressed with how much work you still have to complete!
All the shops and businesses around town are rubbing Christmas in your face. It's like they're dangling it within arms reach, but then snatching it away as you turn the corner and the library looms in front of you haha!
I love my studies, and in a weird way find them even more interesting when I'm revising and have little time left to really enjoy them haha. But it's hard work, and not exactly festive! Plus, it makes it waaaaay too tempting to eat too many festive treats and neglect my exercise routine!
On the whole, I'm not in a bad mood at all. Just 2 more weeks of long library days, when I leave the house early and return in the pitch black, fuelled by red cups! Just 2 more weeks of stress. And then I'll appreciate being home for Christmas all the more.
