    Good luck for the job Nichlette. I've always fancied the idea of working in Boots, but for the staff discount lol.

    Another day off MM?

    Thanks Yukki :), the discount would be useful lol. I've finished the form, it was pretty quick to fill in but it was rubbish as it only gives you the opportunity to write in your last job. I had to write pensions administrator so now they don't know that I've had over two years retail experience... bearing that in mind I think I'd be lucky if they got in touch lol.

    I've just got some kind of good news. If anyone remembers I applied to do AS human biology at my old college, but I didn't ever hear anything back so I assumed I'd either missed the date or they didn't have space for me. Anyway, I got a call from a lady today asking why I hadn't been for the last 5 weeks and if I want to stay on the course or not? I told her that I'd never heard anything from them so I'm going to go tomorrow and see if I'm still able to pick it up or not. It's a 30 week course but I think I'll probably be able to catch up the 5 weeks, I really used to enjoy biology which I guess helps...

    I wish they'd called me after the first few weeks though as five is quite a bit to miss. This probably also means I'll have to buy a text book, unless they issue me a student card so I can use the collyers library again? I'm not sure what will happen now as I've missed the registration evening. Gah! I'm a bit nervous especially as everyone will probably have palled up by now, but I still want to do it.
