Yes, Lulu, take a break! A break is good for you if you're stressed out. But, you can choose when your break is?
Uni providing stress is something I've also had troubles with and still kinda have sometimes
Mario kart is super fun to have around!~ One of my flatmates had played a lot of mario kart before and was way better than we were. So then one of my other flatmates and I decided to keep training until we were better than him. So now part of the house is really good at it, while the other part less so...
Now that I'm better at the game, I actually kind of enjoy the rainbow road. I don't even think that it's the hardest road any more.

Officially I'm on break until April 9th, but I've gotta write essays and the like, so really I'm still supposed to be doing things for uni... But like I said, I'm taking a break this week.
What do you think the hardest road is then? I still fall off rainbow road like an idiot.

Oh, three weeks is a pretty long break! Which your teachers probably used to give way too much work?
I've done all the roads so often that I almost know them by heart, so that probably helps with not falling of the rainbow road. And I always use the same bike which can make extremely sharp turns, which also makes it easier.
Since I know the roads so well, it are the roads with unpredictable elements which I find the most difficult. There is one in like the first cup, toad's factory I think it was called. Also there's this volcano lvl that I struggle with and some of the Bowser castle ones.
And on mirror difficulty I end up not doing so well, since the turns are flipped
Btw, I like your new avatar!

Well, my break
officially started once practical training began.........
Usually you need to hand in all essays (15-30 pages each) on the 31st of March, but my teachers are nice and gave me another month because I had practical training in my break.
My boyfriend is not that lucky, he needs to hand in two 20-page essays on the 31st. And I know he has not started yet. He's also writing a huge exam in three weeks where if he doesn't pass, he's studied 3 years for nothing.
I cannot drive with a bike! I always rush off the corners! Manual driving and actually going off the gas in the Nostalgia 1 is how I play the game!
I don't have many problems with those courses since I honestly think the way they change is pretty predictable.

Everything where you can fall off a cliff is my enemy.
Mirror is actually impossible.
Thank you!

Wow, that is a lot of writing
I would suggest that you could work on the essays together. As in not on one essay, but the both of you working on your own essays while also being in the same room. Maybe it will be motivating. But then I realised it might also work in the opposite way, that you'll distract each other
I've never used anything else that a bike and nothing beats the Match Bike. Drifting with that one allows a lot of mobility in the corners. Enough that I never let go of the gas. There are some roads with exploding projectile falling down (like the volcano) and a few with moving creature. And yes, it is sort of predictable (except for some of those creatures), but not as predictable as the location of the edge of the track. Though, to be fair, i also fall of sometimes. And I sometimes miss jumps, causing me to miss the road and fall off...
Grey, you actually have interns?
That's actually pretty awesome!
And yeah, uni is actually quite fun~ (except for the stress-panic-moments...)

It's kind of awesome. I thought they would solve my problems by making less work for me. It turns out, organising them and telling them what to do is more work than just doing the work 8D I like it though, feels like we're getting somewhere.
I mmmeeaaaannnn I thought I had panic and stress at uni. Then I got a job and a mortgage and I was like, what is thissss take me back

Now I'm getting scared of life after uni... If that's going to stress me out more
Though I'm learning how to cope with stress better now, so maybe I'll be alright?
But they do some work as well right? Or do you have to go over their work as well?
How many interns do you have? It does sound nice to be working with other people on the same (kind of) stuff and that they have to do as you say. Plus, they're learning from you as well, and that's always good; helping people learn stuff is fun~ Or is that just me?
Though, I guess it's also the case for Lulu, since she's going to be a teacher...

I have five. I do have to check their work, so that ends up being the same amount of time as doing it myself X'D Hopefully the more they learn, the less checking I will need to do. At the end of their internships I'm hoping we're working well enough that I can offer them paid positions, but they have to work their butts off so I can afford to first XD
well, I mean, don't ask me, I'm notoriously bad at dealing with stress anyway XD
