    Noooooo not uni! Am in from 10-12, then 2-4, then 4-7.....so a nice long day then. And I've got the dentist so that's even more fun. Scared about dentist but I know its a quick whack a new filling in, then back off to uni for a screeeeening (4-7).

    Two hour lunch, so Kai will be joining me and my friends probably...I'd hope so anyway

    Phew! Another day done. Uni wasn'too bad, got an essay back....67! Nearly a first, I reckon I can get them for the next set of essays, well I hope.

    Filling is done and suted, although I slept when I got home, was so stressed out about it.

    Sorry for such a short missive earler, but was completely knackered and had to go have a sleep.

    OK, now onto the round-up.

    Went to my level meeting today and learnt about the new unit AND I'm being allowed to take screenwriting, which is fantastic as it's something I've always wanted to do :D. So I'm chuffed, it's on a Monday afternoon, 2-5, so it should keep me occupied....am so pleased they're giving me a chance to do it :D:D
    Also did the shopping, I spent £35.11 and have mealplanned for the next week and a half and worked out we don't need anything for until February. Of course, there is still money in the budget if we need small things (Milk/fruit/cold meat/salad stuff) but apart from that we're sorted :D
    Think I might need to go onto the new unit document and read what is required of me....am quite excited.
