Ooooo! That shortbread is so yummy that i went to tesco and bought another 5 packs of it!!:rotfl: So 45p spend there!:o:o

Finally my work mate brought in her Microsoft office for me, lucky it had a license for 3 PC's and she used it on 2 so i have just installed on my laptop! Yay! I know it cost her over £120 when she bought it so i will have to buy her something to say thank you.
So now i can finally do some online courses as my laptop now has the requirements! Im going to have a good look through them tonight and see whats available now.:D:D:D

Now i can write up my Dooyoo reviews on word and use spell check then copy and paste, which will save me time reading through it a million times to check if its written out properly!:rolleyes:

Half of one of my fillings has decided to fall out! i dont know when it happened but now i can only eat on one side! My next check up isnt until October, I dont think i can hold on that long! Although i bet when i phone up they will have trouble finding me a closer appointment! i wanted this filling changed anyway as its black and visible, so now at least they will hopefully change it for a white one.

Hiya,

Been reading through your old diary and this new one, you have done so well!

My situation is a bit like yours. I'm 24 and going to move back in with parents for a couple of years to save for a deposit with my boyfriend.

Will keep reading your diary. You were so lucky to be given 10k!!

Hi

Glad you got the Microsoft Office sorted. Have you looked at courses on the OU site? I am sure you can use Tesco Vouchers to pay for it if you have any?

Also depending on what level of education you already have you may be able to get an NVQ free I think so worth investigating that if you haven't already.

Good luck

Hi Hayz and thanks! Yeah well OH was lucky anyway! haha, he has dipped into that money quiet a few times funding his car addiction but its all paid back and update...so he tells me anyway! Good luck on saving for your deposit hun!

Hi KM,

Unfortunatly i spent all my tesco vouchers on a new camera so dont have any left now! But i will be having a look at all the different courses available online including the OU ones, My mum has some Tesco vouchers, im sure she would sell them to me!

mariagti

I applied for the NQV course i wanted but they sent me back an email saying there wasnt any places left on that course atm, but will email me when a place come available in my area. This is for a free government course so places probably go very quick.

Ive found another course im interested in though this is child learning and development diploma, ive requsted more details on it.

Keeping_Motivated

Sounds good. Might also be worth posting a thread on the student board for recommendations of courses as people might have positive or negative experiences they can share with you or even recommend a course you have not heard about.

It's great you're applying for things . I'm seriously considering applying for another degree next year, I think I might actually be nuts lol.

Hey,

Normally i'd be happy its the weekend, but i have to work this tomorrow and the next saturday too because of the V festival workers. They havent been that bad so far this year, apart from the odd wet bed! Yuck! Grown men peeing themselves because they drink too much!

Think extra money maria!:o

Its my birthday on Monday the grand age on 26!! So me and OH are planning on going somewhere for the day on sunday, hopefully the weather will be nice. We might go to the zoo as havent been for a couple of years and its close by.

I still havent recieved my Next voucher! I emailed them but they havent got back to me so i will send another as my Argos voucher came yesterday after only odering it a couple of days ago.

Where did you order your voucher from? That is annoying it hasn't come.

Hope you have a good birthday Sunday, at least you don't have to work all weekend.

mariagti

Shopandscan, the Next vouchers always do tend to take longer, but never this long to come. It normally says if there out of stock.

Thanks hun, im feeling old! I will sson be hitting 30!
