Things have gone from 0 to 100 very quickly

Forgive my absence, I truly didn't know what to say the past few days. Things have been increasingly busy and I've been rather stressed about the return of uni. 

Not only do lectures start up again but so do societies! I help run a society, historical fashion, and the committee met for a meeting yesterday to organise the coming semester, it was very productive and a much better start than last time. The only problem was our new day is now tuesday, the exact days I have 3-6pm seminars and our events start at 7pm. Which was a great choice that I am perfectly happy with (this is infact sarcasm). 

You would think as social media manager that my role isn't that important, I only run the instagram surely it's just announcing events. Except I take this role as if I am the graphic designer of a leading magazine. I run it as if it was Vogue. It requires an embarrassing amount of effort and time for each post and it is worth it, I'm not slapping a few words into canva, but that's what they think I do. 

We are doing an event (hopefully) at a cafe on campus and they have requested us to have 'banners and posters', everyone else got rather excited at this whereas a pit formed in my stomach. Not a single dimension given, simply 'oh yeah this shelf here, you can do what you want with it'. I asked the committee what they were wanting and they said 'what about the poster you made for freshers', nothing about the banner. The logistics of this is terrifying to me. I would rather get a piece of fabric and hand embroider our society logo onto it than somehow work out how to design and create a paper? laminate? banner. I'll also have to make another batch of our business cards. All of this for the coming month. This is an insane amount of work for a single person who also has their dissertation to work on. 

Speaking about the dissertation, my introduction is due on TUESDAY, there are no words on the document currently. I've done as much reading as I can in this time it is simply a matter of writing and I just cannot bring myself to start. It's terrible. Not only this I have to also book a meeting with my supervisor about this writing, all it makes me want to do is find a hole and hide away from the world forever.

I also need to actually attend archery because I have a competition coming up and we are running out of time. I haven't been because of health issues which was its own kerfuffle. 

Anyway all of this to say, I want to make a post about the muppets but I doubt you'll be hearing from me this week. 

i promise it looks better on the insta
