SWOTVAC

....is the term used in University of Melbourne indicating a one week study leave period prior to exams. To be honest, I still have no idea what it stands for.

My instinct says that VAC stands for Vacation, but really - study leave is NOTHING like a vacation! During vacation, you dress pretty, take beautiful photos and have awesome fun. Much on the contrary, during study leave you look horrible, your eyeballs look like they were about to drop anytime, a picture of you at this point should never see daylight and the closer it is to your exam day, the more you feel like throwing up.

Which is precisely what I'm feeling right now -_-'

My professional paper is due next week and I do feel like throwing up every time I think about it. A lot has happened in November and I have admittedly pushed my academic interest behind the priority it deserves. Realizing this just six days before the paper is nerve wrecking but as the saying goes, better late than never right? Rightttt? (At this point, I'm actually forcing you to nod, hehe)

On a totally random note - can you believe it's already December and 2010 is coming to an end?? Time really flies!
