Enjoying it or are you all like me, juggling assignments and stuff to go through?

Seems like this mid semester break is far more busy than 1st sem. 4 assignments to start off with and keeping up to date with the weekly work and contents.

Has anyone been infected by pracrastination?

Can't afford to procrastinate. 2 assignments down, 2 to go. Fun! ;)

...I can see why people who don't like their course drop out...

Yeah, these are fake holidays. The word holidays gives the impression I'm having fun of some sort. It sucks, because I've had the house to myself for a week and have done absolutely nothing to take advantage of that fact.

Me too, am working my way through the last two, seems like the break was a good time for them to make the assignments, but i think we have the largest mid semester in NSW compared to other uni's, but then again that may be a good thing or a bad thing for some of us...

I agree re: the 'fake' holidays. Its so crap. I worked out that Skittled and I have been working non-stop for nearly three weeks now - thats right, even before the holidays started. I have one more essay to do, and some stat homework to hand in and I'm home free... to start back at uni. But the stress wont end until wednesday when both the essay and the stat homework is due. I can feel myself burning out, I cant take it anymore!!! Just one day off without feeling guilty would be great, but alas...

God I'm melodramatic!

I would say it is better to have two weeks break to do the work instead of one week or none as other uni has it....unless they dont have major assignments or have a lighter workload unlike us..

Mj is feeling what we all feel deep inside all of us, too much juggling time and some of us have other commitments too in the break

i'm at the point now where i'm doing nothing. i've decided i don't have to (or want to) do the other things now because there's a bit of time until they're due, i feel like i'm wasting itme though
