    Well I didn't achieve all my jobs for yesterday but I did list 8 items on ebay and some have bids on so that's a plus. I have about 4 hours until I have to leave for work so just a few small jobs for today.

    Monday Jobs

    Do ebay wrapping
    Start typing up acting logbook

    I am working 5-midnight tonight, and then 11-6 tomorrow so if I get cracking now hopefully I will have finished typing up acting logbook by tomorrow night if I do some more when I get in tomorrow. Must stay focussed and motivated

    Work was hell yesterday and I am so glad I am off today as I got a well deserved lie in. I can now get cracking on catching up on my uni work and do some more ebay listing.

    Thursday's jobs
    Check online banking
    Count change jar
    List tickets on ebay

    If I get all these jobs completed then I can always do more ebaying as I got my payslip and I am only gettint £212 this month :eek: I am going to double check my hours and make sure that this is correct

    Had so much fun in London :j and caught up with friends :D Spent more than I would care for :mad: but we had budgeted and took cash so that's always a plus. But now the fun is over I must get cracking on my uni work as I am back in on Tuesday and would love to be caught up by then. Need to get more ebaying done as need to save up to pay off balance of the holiday by 10th June and it stands at £598.65 :eek:

    I must say it is damn cold up north as it is snowing again, and despite the layers I have had to put the heating on :mad: Plus, as the new tax year approaches all the bills will go up :( I will have to do as many hours as possible at work and keep ebaying for extra pennies.

    Then we are going to Switzerland with uni in April and we have to pay 75% of it and we don't even know the price yet. I gave her a cheque for £50 in October and she still hasn't cashed it so I hope it's not going to be too expensive as don't want to be paying out £100s in one go.

    Well I better dash now and get cracking so can get caught up with uni work and do some ebaying.

    I gave in and rang the student fianance 0845 number and I am glad I did. Apparently I have to take my letter into uni and get it scanned, which it doesn't say on the letter so I was unaware of this :mad: So I will do it on Friday and it takes 3-5 days so should have it by next week and it's nearly £2000 I am owed :j

    I have taken the day off uni, very bad of me I know :o but I feel like I am having some kind of mid life crisis!! Not sure if I am happy and doing the right course and also what I will do whenI have finished. I don't want to drop out and just work at the cinema so I need to get my head sorted and become motivated again. As I was in yesterday I have more jobs on my list but hopefully will get them done today and tomorrow, which is an official day off. Plus, I want to do more ebaying for the extra pennies and also the extra space as I have far too many boxes.

    My jobs list
    Write up lecture
    Do research tasks
    Type up movement
    Type up Acting
    Log book for performance workshop
    Log book for dance/movement
    Log book for acting
    Log book for movement train piece

    Well I best go and get cracking before I waste the day

    My list is getting bigger and bigger :cry: but I have broken down my directing jobs into bite size chunks so I can cross them off sooner and feel motivated. However, we are moving very fast with the directing and the assessment is on 19th March :eek: so better get my cast motivated too.

    I have had my student finance letter scanned at uni so I am hoping to receive my 2 payments of my maintainence loan :j so that is £1938 :j I do have nearly £800 to pay off my credit card :mad: must freeze it again, but then I need to put the rest into my ISA so I can't spend it. Then I will have enough to pay off rest of my holiday in June and a start to my spending money.

    Well I must go and get cracking on my list as have about 5 hours before I need to stop and sort out the evening meal and so much to do.

    I will be a good MiSEr today :rotfl:
