But miss, I'm allergic...



At the end of every semester, when all of a sudden everythingisdueatonceandeventhoughyouknewitwascomingyoudidn'tbothertostartuntiltheverylastsecond, I. get. sick.

Without fail.

There is only one logical conclusion I can draw from this.

I am allergic to homework.

Now I'm off to go and inform my teachers. You guys will back me up, right?

RIGHT?!


ps. (this whole ps. thing is becoming a habit, sorry!). Thank you for your book recommendations. It was cool to see a couple of titles pop up numerous times: Water for Elephants, The Alchemist, The Hunger Games and the Bell Jar. I will definitely have to suggest these at the meeting, along with the other recommendations as well :)

I think that is catching because I have that sickness, too. Hehe, let's hope we both get a shot of motivation.

Hope you feel like homework soon. Yeah, it could be some sort of Homework fever going around.

I'm allergic to philosophy. All of it I think. It makes me all tense and I swear I have hives. Time to pour myself a cup of tea and spike it with something good, right?

Oh, sweetheart! I hope you feel better soon. Getting sick when deadlines loom is the worst. I'm sending healthy thoughts your way!

You are tempting me so much about a book-club. I would love to do it.

Hope you feel better soon! Nothing like getting sick on top of mounds of work to get done! (I will back you up!)

Also, when my group of friends started a book club, we had a few successful meetings...then it just turned into a "let's meet at someone's house and drink wine and gossip" club...much more fun!

We are all procrastinators at heart, aren't we? Seems I won't don something unless I really have to and have a deadline!

or perhaps you're allergic to procrastinating?... but don't worry, i'll support the allergic to homework idea when it comes to your professors. :)

Get well soon, missie! I will totally, totally back you up on your allergy hypothesis ;)

Oh that's the worst! Getting sick so close to the end of the semester is really hard. Heck, anything at the end of the semester is hard.

Tell me about it! My game plan was always to do things straight away, but it inevitably ends up squeezing me in the end, just like an accordian! Which reminds me of what Julia Child said in her book! Oh I miss her! Anyway, good luck and bless you! (For the sneezes!)

I will definitely back you up because *coughcough* I'm allergic too!

You are too funny!

God I remember having the same thing happen to me in school! And unfortunately, it will still happen in work life if social and work-related obligations pile up together, though that tends to happen with less frequency. :) Good luck, and I hope you feel better soon!!

Good luck at school! I graduated from college last may and I have been much healthier since. Something about school stresses us out so much, our immune system freaks out I think. Boo to homework!

Ugh I totally know that feeling. good luck and feel better.

You probably ARE allergic to homework! I wish I could brew you a big cup of healing tea and bring it to you.

Guest Post: Brandi of ´Not Your Average Ordinary´

This guest post is quite exciting for me, as Brandi was actually the reason I first started my blog. She was one of my first followers and has been such an inspiration throughout this whole process. On top of that she is the sweetest person ever and such a beautiful woman inside and out. Without further ado, here she is: Ritual I was so flattered when Kaylia asked me to guest post for her. You see, she's one of my favorite sources of inspiration and honesty on the great big blogosphere. I was sipping tea, trying to decide what to write and feeling more unsure of myself than ever. It's been a bit like that lately in my world. When moments like those overwhelm me, I stop what I'm doing and brew a pot of tea. The first cup is reflection, the second poured becomes evaluation, the remaining cups devoted to action. It's one of the best things I do for myself all day, the little ritual. There’s something wonderful about daily rituals – those little times during the...

Guest post from Deidre of Decoybetty

Here is another guest post from a fabulous blogger; this time it's Deidre from Decoybetty. This blog is one of the funniest, most honest, most inspiring blog around (with the occasional dash of delicious recipes to boot). Check out her beautiful blog at www.decoybetty.com and you'll see why she is one of my all-time favourites. Guest post: When Kaylia asked me to write a guest post, I stared at the blank screen and the only things that came to mind is how every post that Kaylia writes, I read along going “Yes! Yes! Yes!”  This girl writes (albeit way more eloquently) what I’m thinking.  But you read her blog, you know how fabulous she is.   She recently wrote about the ‘anonymity’ of travel. I’m addicted to this feeling.  I’m an expat. I was born in America and got my first taste of Australia in the young adult book “Looking for Alibrandi” where a teenager skips school to hang out with a boy which is basically all the things I am not. I’d never skip school and I didn’t r...

Guest Post: Vanisha

Hey guys, here is the last guest post and I couldn't have picked someone better (if I do say so myself). I have only known Vanisha's blog for a short time but I'm already hooked. It's funny, honest and there are always beautiful photos to drool over. PLUS she lives in Canberra and does a much better job of summing up my awesome home-town than I do. Enjoy! Hello! I'm Vanisha from Vanisha's In Life...Australia  Kaylia invited me to write a guest post whilst she's on her fabulous holiday! Being asked to write a guest post almost feels like being invited into someone's home. I'm honored. Kaylia said write about "anything" so I thought I'd write about an amazing trip I recently took.  A lot of people find it odd that of all places, we decided to got to Timor Lestse. Let me preface this decision a little. It all started in front of this fire place in the middle of winter in the Kangaroo Valley. Two acquaintances sat. Trying to get war...
