    Hi El! Just been reading through your new diary - so many starting up, I hadn't found you. You've got a lot on your plate, but it sounds like you've got it all sussed. And those scratches sound great today!

    well its only 10p each today which is nice as well not as nice maybe as £5 but it does all mount up ....had another i cantbearsed day today so didnt go to uni and i'm glad i didnt class is meant to be on for 3 hours but was only 1.5 hours today and all they talked about was how good they think the new course has been and wanted the class to fill an assessment form in stating the same it wouldve cost me £6.60 in train fare and i wouldve been livid ...i will deff be going tomorrow though cause it's my favourite class and i just know they will teach right up to the bell (which i like)

    i have to pick an elective for next year now i have a few choices all of which appeal to me for various reasons
    1) how to start a business ...speaks for itself really i'm in the middle of starting one so any help and advice would be appreciated it has an exam in it
    2) quantum physics now this subject has interested me for ages purely as a interest subject but it does also have an exam
    3) introduction to drugs this course will let me find out how various legal (and illegal) drugs affect our bodies what the drug companies want us to believe etc ..now hubbys health aint been great and he has had alot of different meds in his time and i have no doubt will have many more to come so this might be interesting to have this knowledge on hand 60 multiple choice questions which i think i could manage
    4) pottery class i am so left brained it is unreal and i want to do some things that will help me use my right brain more this might help that ....i have noticed i havnt had time to even read a fantasy book since i started and i love reading so the little that i am using of my right brain is starting to stop
    there are a few more classes but i am not sure what they are yet ...

    so out of those what would you choose?

    I would choose pottery but then I'm right brained through and through! For practical purposes I think I'd look at the starting a business one as it might be useful if it's taught by someone knowledgeable.

    I would do the drugs one, personally.

    If I tried pottery, I would have to sell it as "abstract sculpture" as it would be likely to be quite unrecognisable as a cup/vase/fruit bowl :o

    i have no dount if i made a bowl or cup vase etc it would look nothing like it at all but i am so uncreative and i would love to develop that side of me ..Dinah you are so lucky to be so creative... the drugs one does appeal to me i have to admit...it will help on a personal level ....the business one would help on a career base oh the choice the choice lol
