I moved all my shit back into my house. Came back so I can get pissed with some of my work Gringo's. Then I'll hop onto a train back to Leicester, set my shit up, and play some music at high volume.

My college recently merged with some other stuff to become the University of Cumbria. Doesn't make a blind bit of difference to me and my fellow art students, but reading in the local press about the almost constant, childish bickering about where to build the new main campus has already provided literally dozens of hours of entertainment.

 

As far as I'm aware, they've just about settled on an abandoned car park, but aren't decided on which bit should be built first.

Anyone else not got the letter from the loans company that you take to registration?

 

I've got to enroll on Thursday and the bastard has not turned up. To make it worse the login on the site is down. I've got a letter they've sent me saying I'll get payments, but apparently they sent me my confirmation letter on the 6th, still not turned up.

Had to hop on a train back. Had a cracking shower Monday, then the next day the hot water seems to have vanished. Plus there was no internet, which killed me inside. Got the train on Wednesday and chillin' with ma homies at home[O_o] till Friday/Saturday, haven't decided yet.

My first day back at uni was a 9-5, and I'm spending all weekend doing the work for it!

 

We also have Freshers and lectures on the same week, lame.

Same for me.

 

Anyway, I've spent ages trying to sort out really old my bike, which has ended up costing more than buying a new bike...

My first semester timetable looks awesome. Busy days Monday and Tuesday, Wednesday off, two lessons Thursday and Friday off. Which works out well because I don't have to change my hours at work, which was a concern.
