    claire if I have a little bit, I'll eat the rest. Best me and chocolate don't meet.

    Had an extra banana as I've been up since 6. Went home from uni early as I nearly had a panic attack in a seminar. Got a snotty email off someone when I'm only trying to sort out something. Also, how is it fair that I do a resit for an assignment I was never given in the first place?

    Hugs Claire.. I can't see anything on your Facebook page?

    Elfen, that doesn't sound fair about the assignment at all.

    claire, if it is a 3rd person sticking their oar in and stirring things, then it might be as well to contact the person you were talking to and see if they understood what you meant.

    elfen, is there anyone you can talk to about the assignment? although on the other hand, since it's your first year and doesn't count you can just throw anything together, you don't have to spend ages on it, especially since you know you can't get a good mark anyway, so it's less stressful than having a 'real' assignment thrown at you at the last minute, if you see what I mean?
    Unless I say otherwise 'you' means the general you not you specifically.
