Check in: How was your week?
Hey everyone.
This seemed to be a fairly popular thread in the old forums, and it's always nice to check in with each other and reflect on how we're getting on, and the highlights of our week.
So... How was everyone's week? What were some of the highlights?
Though I'm going to get in quick before it closes 😛
The last few weeks haven't been so great for me. With news of grandfather being ill than him passing away, it threw everything out the window. But before that I was starting to go downhill, I was feeling as though I just couldn't cope with anything. Over the weekend I found myself in a really dark place, it was insane! Though I fought through it. And while I sit here now wondering what drove me I'm glad I didn't listen to some of those negative thoughts!
I felt like I'd hit my worst, and things seemed to only be going downhill. Now I sit here and I realise I was struggling and the pressure of trying to cram for an exam was just too much. I've sat it and I feel better, though I'm bracing ymself for a stack of drama work!
I'm hoping I can fight through this coming week and come out feeling better than what I did this last week.
Sorry to hear about your grandfather and that you had a rough week(s) Bee. *hugs* I hope this week is kinder to you and that some positives come your way.
How's everyone's week been?
I just came back from my mid-sem break. I guess most students felt like a brand new start and decided to come into uni today- never seen the class that full 😛
Also spoke to ~100 students about de-stressing for their HSC. I think I ranted lol
@Doris: I agree about coming back after mid-semester break! It's like a chance to redeem yourself and get reorganised. 😄
Also, the presentation sounds awesome. Nothing wrong with a little bit of ranting sometimes. 🙂
Haven't used this thread in a while!
How is everyone? How has your week been? What's something positive that happened?
I'm not too bad LUTW, how are you?
My week has been super busy and stressful. Had two assignments due last week, have an exam tomorrow, am trying to organise for prac which starts Monday (am going away and had to find new accom at the last minute!). I'm feeling happier now I have the 2 assignments out of the way. Something positive that happened... I discovered a new music artist that I love! Gabrielle Aplin. Am going to buy her album tomorrow as a reward once I've finished my exam 😄
Wow, your are busy DD! All the best for your exam tomorrow- I hope you ace it! That sounds like a pretty awesome reward too!
I've had a bit of an up and down week but it's on the up now and I'm getting things done which is always awesome. 🙂 One awesome thing for me was just taking time out to listen to music and relax.
Sounds like a grat week you've had 🙂
Lets see, my week, well around all the dramas and ups and downs, I reckon I've done quite well! 🙂
The highlight would have been driving in the rain and being able to control the car better than what I thought, I haven't had much expeirence in wet weather - especially in pouring rain, but I did it. And I felt so proud of myself because I've been getting better and better and it's given me a sense of improvement recently, as everything to do with school only seems to be dragging me down, where as noticing my improvements and my skills with my driving has made me smile a bit 🙂 ALso I baught a new book recently and am really really enjoying! it's hilarious! 😄 (talk about over hype here! haha 😛 ) But yeah, feeling better tonight than what I have in the last couple weeks which is good

How has your week been? What was a highlight or positive?
I have had a pretty busy week assignments and work, but I dont feel as tired anymore because I have been working out a lot and my energy levels are AMAZING 🙂
Awesome! Glad you've had a good week DD! 🙂 Congrats on your new job!
Looks like no one has posted here yet this week.
How was everyone's week? Any highlights?
--
Mine started crap went good and then ended pretty badly... I don't think it could make it's mind up whether it wanted to be a good week or a bad week!
My highlights were performing my drama monologue, it was really fun (even though I was super nervous), seeing goodbye Jamie Boyd, and talking to Mrs K Friday afternoon
Hey everyone! How has your week been? Good? Bad? Average?
What was one positive thing about your week?
My week has been a little average but filled with some good reminders and some highlights like finally submitting an overdue assignment. 😄
One positive thing? hmmm I got my English assessment done and handed in ontime

Hopefully this week is a little more exciting for you. 🙂 Yay for getting you assessment in on time though, that's awesome! 🙂
My week has been really busy and a bit stressful, but good! I spent last week in Cairns which was amazing... Missing the warm weather!

Wow, sounds like you had quite a week. 🙂 Some warm weather would be amazing! The weather down here in Tassie doesn't seem to know what it wants to do atm- we went from a 20 degree day a few days ago to snow on the mountain yesterday. 😛
My week has been average. Had a lot on at uni and didn't handle it too well. However I feel like I've learnt something from it and am determined to turn over a new leaf and put some new coping strats in place.
One positive thing about my week was winning a free bar of vegan chocolate! I've never tried it before so I thought that was pretty exciting 🙂

Glad to here there was a positive or at least constructive thing that came out of your average week DD! Also, free chocolate! Mmm, yum! 🙂
