Hey @Red_Flamingo 

It’s been a while.

How have you been doing?

I hope you’re feeling less sick today and that your appointment with your psych went well.

Hi,

Yes it has how are you?

I'm feeling much better today. 

We had a longer session today which was good. It was pretty hard talking about how bad things were last week. I was getting emotional but still couldn't bring myself to cry. I wish I could have it probably would have helped. 

We are keeping our schedule how I had it booked in. So only fortnightly when he isn't free and we will discuss at the end of November. 

What have you been up to?

I'm feeling a bit better after having that session.

Hey @Red_Flamingo 

I’m doing alright. Just had to work on my mental health for a bit.

I’m glad you were able to have a longer session. It’s really frustrating when you want to cry but you can’t.

Are you okay with the current schedule?

I haven’t been up to much. I intermitted uni so I have some free time until the next trimester.

I’m glad you’re feeling a bit better. Do you have any plans for today? Are there any selfcare activities you can do?

Hi, 

That's good to hear. I hope it's going okay. Did something happen?

Yeah, I think it was because I didn't know how long I had left and didn't want to go over time. 

I guess so. I'll see how I cope with September, which is only two appointments. I can't see him for two weeks as someone booked the session time I use, which is very annoying. 

You can book online, so it was hard when I saw someone had taken it. I normally book well in advance, but he mentioned it a few times, so I tried waiting, and then I ended up not being able to see him. 

What do you mean by intermittent uni? When is the next trimester? 

I had a physics lab this morning. I talked to an outreach lady who came to my house, so that was good. She is going to talk to my psychiatrist about my meds and if I can take anything to help when I'm very distressed. 

If I stay, I have a uni class from 12:30 till 2:30 or 3:30. Then I will come home, do a bit of study and go out to a games night for 20 to 30 year olds. I'll come home and go to bed as I have an MRI appointment at 9 am tomorrow.

Hi @Red_Flamingo 

Thanks. Nothing in particular happened. Just got unlucky.

That’s understandable. Watching the clock can really interfere with the session but it’s hard to not do.

That’s really frustrating. Psychs are always so busy. It’s tough getting the appointments you need.

I’m taking a break for the trimester. I’ll restart in November.

A physics lab sounds like fun. Did you enjoy it?

Hopefully they can give you a PRN that works!

Oh, wow that’s a busy day. I hope your MRI went well.

Red_FlamingoPosted 31-08-2024 04:16 PM

Oh okay. Well, I'm here if you want to share anything. 

Oh, no, it's not because of that. He always has appointments. I can only go to that one because of the timing with uni and work. 

I also like the last session, in case we go over it, etc. 

That's nice. Will it add much time to your course? 

Yeah, I hope so. It would be good. 

Yes, it was okay. 

I'll reply to your other post now.

Hey @Red_Flamingo 

Thank you!

Ah that makes sense. That really sucks.

The last session is great. You don’t have to watch the clock as much.

It adds a trimester, so it’s not too bad. I’m thinking of adding an additional one on top so I can do a specific subject.

Red_FlamingoPosted 01-09-2024 02:23 PM

Hi, 

All good. 

Yeah, it is good. I don't think there is a clock in the room, or well, I can't see it on the side of the room I'm looking at. 

That's okay. What units do you want to add?

 
 
 
 
 
Lapis_Anteater
Lapis_AnteaterPosted 01-09-2024 02:27 PM

Hey @Red_Flamingo 

Oh nice! It’s a non-issue then.

I want to add a maths unit. It isn’t necessary for the masters but I think it will provide a good foundation.

How’s uni going for you? Any plans for today?

 
 
 
 
 
Red_Flamingo
Red_FlamingoPosted 01-09-2024 02:48 PM

What masters do you want to do again? 

Yeah, busy. The break is on the 9th, so that is good. 

I have a physics assignment and a biochem quiz due today. A lab report for physics and a 2000-word assignment for public health are both due on Friday.

Lapis_AnteaterPosted 06-09-2024 12:37 PM

Hey @Red_Flamingo 

I want to do biostatistics.

The break isn’t too far away. You’re visiting your family?

Oh wow! That’s a lot to get done. Are you managing okay?

 
 
 
 
 
Red_Flamingo
Red_FlamingoPosted 06-09-2024 01:18 PM

Hey, 

I have about 95% of the lab report done. I just need to adjust a couple of calculations and then do a final edit. I have done 1300 words for the essay. The minimum I can do is 1800. It definitely is stressful, but I think once I get them done tonight, I will be very much relieved. 

Yeah, I am going to my parents' house on Sunday to stay for the break and celebrate my birthday. 

That sounds hard. I hope you like spss.

Lapis_AnteaterPosted 07-09-2024 01:27 PM

Hey @Red_Flamingo 

That’s a good amount of progress. The nice thing about lab reports is that the format is really clear. 1800 words is a lot. Is the topic interesting?

Sounds like fun! What are you planning to do for your birthday?

It could be. I just really like statistics so I don’t mind if it’s hard.

How has your day been? I hope the weekend is relaxing for you.

Red_FlamingoPosted 07-09-2024 02:13 PM

Hi,
I got them both done last so I am happy. 
I have a biochem quiz due today and then a lab report next week and a physics assignment. So I won't have much time for rest lol next week. 
It was alright it was just hard finding info for it.
I'm just going out for dinner with family. 
Its been a stressful week, but today has been much nicer. I've done some washing up and been to theh gym. I've just had lunch and then I need to run over the the jewellery store to get my ring fixed. 

What are you up to?

Lapis_AnteaterPosted 08-09-2024 02:21 PM

Hey @Red_Flamingo 

Congratulations. Must be a big relief.

Ah, damn. Hopefully they’re not too challenging for you.

Dinner sounds nice. Do you have a favourite restaurant for special occasions?

I’m glad today has been nicer. Sounds like you’ve been busy.

I’ve been going for walks and watching TV with my mum. The new medication makes me so sleepy. It’s been hard to concentrate.

How has your day been?

 
 
 
 
 
Red_Flamingo
Red_FlamingoPosted 10-09-2024 10:06 AM

Yeah, I was happy to get them done. 

I am now working on a physics assignment and a biochemistry lab report. 

We went to an Italian restaurant. 

Oh, that sucks, I hope the side effects lessen over time. 

Yeah good. It was my birthday yesterday, so I went out for dinner. 

I received a blue sapphire and diamond cluster ring from my parents, a small diamond bracelet from a few family members, and a Ninja Cream, which I need to order.

Lapis_AnteaterPosted 12-09-2024 01:36 PM

Hey @Red_Flamingo 

I guess the work never stops. Life of a uni student  

Nice.

I hope so. This med has a bad side effects profile. The plan is to move to a different one soon so hopefully it’ll improve then.

Happy belated birthday! I hope that the next year is filled with happiness for you.

Oh wow, those are some nice gifts. The Ninja Creami looks great. You can make so many things.

How have your holidays been? Hopefully you’ve been able to have a bit of a break.

Red_FlamingoPosted 15-09-2024 08:56 AM

Hi, 

No, it doesn't, lol. 

I hope you can change your meds soon. 

Thank you. Yeah, I'm happy with what I got. 

It's been good. I'm back at university now. My Mum came for the ballet, and my dad came for the football and horse racing, but Carlton isn't playing. 

Sorry I didn't reply earlier. It's been a very busy week.

Lapis_AnteaterPosted 15-09-2024 02:52 PM

Hey @Red_Flamingo 

Thank you. I think it’ll be discussed on Tuesday, so fingers crossed.

The ballet, football, and horse racing sound nice.

No worries at all, sounds like you’re having fun.

What did you get up to this weekend? Any plans for the week?

 
 
 
 
 
Red_Flamingo
Red_FlamingoPosted 17-09-2024 10:43 AM

Hi, 

That's good. 

The ballet was good. Carlton didn't play so Dad was disappointed, but he did have fun at the races. 

That was about it. 

I worked on my assignment yesterday and had work 4:15 to 8:15 and I'll be doing the same today.

Lapis_AnteaterPosted 17-09-2024 02:55 PM

Hey @Red_Flamingo 

I’m glad the ballet was good.

It’s a shame Carlton didn’t play but it’s good that he had fun at the races.

How was work?

How is the assignment going? Is it interesting?

Red_FlamingoPosted 17-09-2024 03:09 PM

Thanks. 

Yes, they got booted out the first week of the finals. They did so badly. 

It was good. It's a nice short shift, and it's pretty easy. 

Good ish. I have finished it all to an extent. I've done everything other than the limitations on one of the parts of the experiment we need. I need a reference for it, but I can't find anything, so I'm stumbled for what I'll do. 

It's on protein quantification and lysozyme activity assay. I need to find the limitations on the lysozyme part and how it might not work or something. It's to do with egg white. It's so annoying. I'll have a final look once I get home from work and if I can't find anything I'll just submit it. 

How is your day going?

Lapis_AnteaterPosted 18-09-2024 12:15 PM

Hey @Red_Flamingo 

That’s a real shame. Hopefully next year is better for them.

I’m glad your shift went well!

Oh, wow that sounds complicated. It can be really difficult finding appropriate references.

My day has been alright. The weather is nice, so I went for a walk. I haven’t got much planned.

How is your day so far?

Red_FlamingoPosted 18-09-2024 12:21 PM

Hi, 

Yes I do hope so. They have dropped a few players, which a lot of others and I are confused about. 

Yes it is. I didn't find anything so I just left it. 

it is lovely here as well. I think it's going to rain this afternoon, though. 

I had my psychic lecture this morning, and I'm just wasting time until I have to leave at 1:00 pm to go to my psychic. My appointment is at 1:45 pm. The longest part of getting there is waiting for the two trains which I go like two stops on one and then one on the next.
