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: 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...

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: Courtney from Vintch

Hey all, here is a guest post from one of my  favourite bloggers: Courtney from Vintch . I have been reading this lovely lady's blog for over a year and am so honoured to have her doing this guest post for me. You'll see once you read her beautiful writing why she has quickly become a must-read on so many people's lists. On finding her voice My mama hates mayonnaise and is not fond of hanging baskets. My dad has Dallas Cowboys pajama pants and a penchant for ranch dip. And I am their daughter. I slept one floor above them for 21 years, until the night before my wedding when I crawled into my twin bed and cried, my cheek warm against the cotton sheets, my hands wrapped around the cracked gold posts. I cried not because I was scared or nervous about the wedding, but because I would never again sleep there. Never again hang my feet off the side and onto the carpet. Never talk to my sister in the dark until we both fell asleep mid sentence. It was bittersweet and ...
