my week #165

This week marked the start of campaign week. As mentioned last week, myself and three others are running as a team for next year's year representatives. We had to do a presentation on Tuesday evening and it was hard - both because I was nervous but also because I'd received some bad news in the morning. A family bereavement is never easy, even when it's not completely unexpected. The only thought pulling me through at the moment is that they would have been super proud of me: both running in elections (I never like putting myself at the centre of attention) and also my project.

So my project: it is in relation to a condition that holds a lot of personal significance and the fact that I may make a difference to others in similar situations in the future has also helped me concentrate on these things for the time being. As a result, I'm trying not to think too much about everything until next weekend when elections will be over.

It's not the easiest time for me at the moment but everyone has their personal life issues and I won't let that affect my university/work life. This blog has taken a back seat at the moment but I've got posts scheduled for the next three weeks so don't worry!

How has your week been?
