The day before the day before the day before we go back

Just to say yesterdays post was not a personal attack at anyone! lol. It was just a good way to start off a healthy discussion that was circulating in my head at the time. So i hope no offence was caused.

Today i met my last lot of friends before i got back to Uni (i think). This time it was some guys from school (2 of which are engaged, which is exciting and scary). I also found out i am to be an usher at their wedding next summer, (2007) so i shall have to do some research into what one does....

I had the unfortunate job of attempting to apply for next years Uni finance stuff this afternoon. Ohh joy of joys. Having identified the PR1, consulting the PR1 information booklet, phoning both...yes both helplines, checking the website, printing the form off (the cheek of it!!) i am none the wiser as to what i am supposed to do. It's a bit like origami-all the instructions are laid out in front of you-but they still may as well be in Japanese! So eventually i gave up midway through trying to work out if i was a pregnant homeowner with children from the EU and 3 ears or an overseas student sponsored by the NHS who has two dogs and a ucas number that begins with 3. (you see it all affects whether i flick over to section 10A or go directly to 13F via 12C)

I always feel cheated when i have to skip sections. In fact having answered no to being over 50 for example, i always flick to that section, just to see what I'm missing. In this case i think it was just a larger font. So anyway...the countdown has really begun now. I think tomorrow will be my last day of 'work' before i get back.

Thought for the Day: Ever looked in a mirror and wondered if you're the reflection?

I've completed my bit of the P1 form... just waiting for mum to do her bit.. I love filling in forms... I used to do it just for fun (like the ones in magazines to send away for stuff, only I'd never post it cos I didn't want the stuff.) Does that make me weird? I guess there is no saving my reputation now.

As to reflections... I daily struggle to equate the person I see with the person I am!

No thats not true. Just some days I dont feel I look like me... but maybe I'm being weird again? xx
