Fingers Crossed

I am experiencing a weird feeling at the moment, and it's been building for nearly a week now.

Firstly; I have a photography AS exam in under three weeks, within this time I need to take three shoots, develop, write about the collection, and get ready for the five hour exam. I have been planning the shoot for a month now, and in two days time I have the first shoot. So, things should be going to plan? Not quite. My project is 'The Seven Deadly Sins' and I wanted seven different people to be one sin each, this wasn't hard - I asked them and they agreed. The weeks and days passed and slowly it got closer to the shoot, soon enough three had pulled out. I tweaked the idea - it was difficult but fine, I had time to work with the situation. Today two really vital people said they couldn't take part due to 'work load'. I could tell they weren't that excited about the shoot anymore and the feel when talking to them was awkward for some reason, but instead of just saying they don't want to, I get the awkward made-up excuses. It's what 'friends' are for right?

Secondly; I have no idea how to revise Pride and Prejudice - I keep getting told to read it but I've read it too many times that it's beginning to drain all enthusiasm towards Austen. I'm panicing a little and not sure what to do about it

Thirdly; my personal life seems really good at the moment. I'm happy and optimistic for the first time in a while, but these thoughts are getting pushed to the back of my mind again, and I'm worried I'm going to loose faith again. So that's optimistic and pessimistic all jumbled up!

Fourthly; I dislike the fact Mac's are so fussy when it comes to formats of videos. I've spent 4 hours today looking for converters so that my extra-curriculum can be uploaded. There's so little time until the scary situation of UCAS forms approach as, that I know every minute counts. Those four hours wasted really didn't help!

This rant has weirdly reduced some stress built up, so thank you Blogger. I will spend a couple of hours tomorrow getting things in order, and just hope nothing goes wrong. Fingers crossed!
