The week my life went tits up.
The week my life went tits up.
Need sympathy here really.
This has been a particularly shit week really. Firstly I didn't manage to get all of my flat work done for my degree hand in, in the allotted time, I had been working non stop and at about 6AM my computer crashed with rather a lot of unsaved information on, including loads of flat work i'd scanned in. I lost all the work i'd done for one of my modules and broke down into hysterical tears until the hand in time (10AM) and just couldn't bring myself to do anymore. As a result i will probably get a 3rd or a 2.2 at best, even though if i had finished everything I could have aimed at a 2.1. I have worked incredibly hard for three years and got into debt in the process and really feel as if I've let myself down. I'm basically going to have a good for nothing degree now.
The today we had the selection for the University fashion show, which doesn't affect our grades at all, but we had to dress models in our outfits and present them to a board including the guys from the label Modern[ist] and Giles Deacon, my models were in and out in about a minute, which wasn't a good sign.
At about half six we were all called in to the room and they read out who they wanted for the show, and I wasn't picked. I know it seems tiny but it is really the final kick in the teeth, knowing that you are too shit to be in their show, and that they made the decision so quickly.
I feel really crap and just needed to let off some steam. I have had it with this uni and the total lack of support and tuition I have received this year, and I entirely blame them for the total lack of confidence I now have in what I do. I've tried not to cry yet about it all, but I just wonder what i'm going to do with my life now.

Oh ellie, I couldn't read and not post.
Please don't be too harsh on yourself. I did a creative course at college, and was constantly distinctly average which was quite soul destroying - in a way I think it's worse than being average in an academic subject as it's quite personal.
I decided not to follow the direction of my training and ended up purely by chance going down a completely career path - which I totally love and would never have dreamed I'd end up following. Life has a funny way of diverting in the opposite direction to where you think you're heading - and that's not always a bad thing.
Please don't get too stressed about it (easier said than done, I know).
Just sending you lots of :grouphug:

so sorry to hear about your week ellieaness, it must be so disapointing after all that hard work you must have put in pver the years. I did a degree myself & understand that you put a hell of a lot of time & commitment in. It mightnt be so bad, so keep your chin up & what i would do is get some good friends together & get yourself out tonight & have one hell of a good night, you deserve it by the sounds of it. XX
