Your thesis is done! That's great crack up now! Only kidding but glad the pressure's off. Probably need a few nights and days of sleep. Fondly, Phillipa

> Probably need a few nights and days of sleep.
yeah i think you might be right. i thoguht... i'd be feelign really happy now. like a load has lifted. but i don't feel happy. i feel really emotional and crying and stuff. and really upset. i think maybe i do need to sleep for a couple of days or something.
unfortunately... no can do. i have stuff i need to sort out. i got a three week extension to finish this (which is fairly standard apparantly) but they didn't tell me that my student allowance wouldn't be extended. and that i wouldn't qualify for unemployment because i wasn't available for full time work (because of extension) so that means i need to go and try and sort that out tomorrow otherwise i could get evicted or something (okay so i'm overreacting a little they won't evict me) but it is making things really very hard around now which is just waht i need before christmas... and... then there is all kinds of other stuff... it doesn't matter... it is just that i managed to put all these other things out of my head to get this done... and now it just feels like its being replaced with all these other worries
and from drama to drama the story of my life...
(apparantly)
i think i do just need to get some sleep
((((phillipa))))))
thank you.

Done. What an amazing place to be. I can understand it being an emotional place, too. You've worked really hard, and now it is over. There is your life ahead of you, and that's probably scary and exciting at the same time. Your daily routine is completely changing (change is SO disruptive) - what are you supposed to do with yourself now?
First, you should be proud of yourself!!!!!

Hi Alexandra. Did you finish a thesis or something? Congratulations!
I know what it feels like to feel overwhelmed. I have a lot on my plate right now too. Keep on keepin' on!
All the best, Lucia

Alex you work so hard. I am sorry you have all this now. Try and get some sleep though. I know this is going to be hard to do. But one thing I have noticed in my life is the let down when something is over is like a depression. If you can remember this it might help to understand why you feel like you do. It just happens to I think most people. And knowing you you will get through it. I'm always here for a Babble Love your friend, Phillipa

thanks falls. yeah. scarey and exciting... yeah. and i think i need some time to recouperate. to unwind. to spend a couple days in bed. or lazing in the sun with a novel or something. i think it is going to take some time for all this to sink in...
as for what i'm going to do with myself now...
i thought i was going to have to try and find myself a job. but... turns out they think the sickness benefit would be more appropriate. i couldn't believe it... but they were really very nice to me and said that they surely did appreciate that full time study is different from full time work and they wouldn't turn down an application for the sickness benefit because i had been studying full time. i was working only 9 contact hours last semester and i couldn't even cope with that :-( so maybe... i will get a bit of a break after all. i really think i need one.
> First, you should be proud of yourself!!!!!
thank you

yeah i think i will. couldn't sleep last night... really have to get some though or i'll start spinning out... i think sometimes i get overtired and wound up and have trouble sleeping... but i feel so very tired... i really might just go eat something and sleep...
> I know this is going to be hard to do. But one thing I have noticed in my life is the let down when something is over is like a depression.
yeah. i guess so. and i guess i was keeping myself going with coffee and cigarettes and coke and... just a little tiny bit of meth :-(.... so yeah... time to sleep and recouperate.
thanks phillipa.
love to gnepig too
:-)
