    Sammy - How's the studying hun?

    *very big sigh* :confused: as well as it usually is at this point in time, stressed to death cos I can't remember my name from one minute to the next never mind complicated formulas that I will never again use...

    I hate the fact that I have to live and breathe studying - I can't relax or enjoy anything. I even feel guilty sleeping...but this time next week it will almost be over for another six months....

    It's exactly the same for me Sammy.

    When I last went home, my brother bought me this fab zip up Oneill hoddy in a mossy green colour and my mom said 'I told him you would look like crap in that colour, what with your sallow skin'

    Humph. I wear it all the time and love it.

    I look forward to my mum coming down for ages, thinking fondly of having mother daughter talks and such like, totally forgetting that I have Edina from AbFAb as a mother...

    That made me spit my drink out. I think we should call you Saffy instead of Sammy from now on. Anyhow, how's the studying coming along?

    My mum used to call me Saffy! My friends called me bubbles (is that what she was called in the programme) cos thats who I sound like (Jane Horrocks):o

    A month on Sat, hence why I want to do a month of CD-maybe lose a stone by then...

    You know half of me wants to say screw her Bunny you are lovely and you shouldn't feel put down by your Mum.

    The other half of me sort of understands how you feel You are Lovely but I do get how the family thing can just really mess with your identity and self worth so I will just send hugs and remind you that you looked fantastic in Manc xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
    Nevertheless she persisted.

    And I take it that this is the last place you lose weight from?

    I dont think it'll go without a tummy tuck if I'm honest. When I lost the weight recently, it became a bit baggier and saggier :rolleyes:

    What I dont get is DH LOVES it :confused:
    Is it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:

    Bear that in mind, only one week left, then a break. But I know exactly howyou feel. I was in meltdown this time two weeks ago :( Although it's easier said than done, try not to stress too much, you'll be fine.

    Nope......I nearly decked her the day she sent ' Reiki' through the dashboard of my broken down car (I just called the AA out instead).

    And last time I passed my exams, it was cos she sent Reiki to the situation, not cos I studied hard or anything...:confused:
