College nonsense.
So I came home on Friday night around 10pm to find a letter from the college. It was an acceptance letter. It had, however, been sent to the wrong address AGAIN. I told the guy that my info was wrong, he assumed I had done it wrong, but it was fine on my form. Just some error someone had made when putting it into the system. I thought he'd get it sorted, but he clearly did not. So a letter that was dated the 16th only just got to me. I duno, I can't really moan at my neighbour. But I am going to XD I mean I don't even know who it is in number 4 to be honest but they knew before because of the other letter. Why let it sit in your house for more than a week before dropping it down? It clearly had the college's name on the front and if that had been me, I'd have realised it was probably something pretty important. If they'd left it any longer, I could have missed the deadline to accept which is Tuesday!
Other than that whole nonsense I was a little unsure of what to do. Its still the much lower level than I wanted to do but Kate said what I was thinking. Accept the place and if I change my mind before the course starts, let them know. I do so desperately want to study Patisserie and if this is where I have to start, then so be it. I also said to the guy that would the Practical over Professional Cookery be better for me because of the baking side and he said he'd check into it. Clearly, he did fuck all as I didn't hear from him and I was offered a place in the Professional one... Urgh, I just do not know. I felt like this was THE place to study and he was going on about how great the place was and that they train bakers and butchers for Morrisons blah blah...but then he went on such a negative spree. I mean I can be a top class Debbie Downer, but its just to do with me. Its a personal thing and I tend to try not to send out the vibes to everyone else. I've got to order whites and apply for a bursary, but I really don't get what money I can get if I live at home or whether Kate and I move to Glasgow. I'd love to move out but if I'm not going to be able to get help with that, I'm screwed :/
Argh! All this lovely weather and of course I have to get all WOE IS ME.
In other news, my dad finished the Edinburgh marathon in his worst time :( 4hrs and 55 mins. My mum sent this group text saying how shite it was and tbh, it annoyed me. I think completing a marathon in under the...three days it would probably take me is awesome. He raised a buttload of money for CHAS yet again and he did it in this sweltering heat. As always, I'm proud of him.
I'm sleepy, but I know if I nap now, I'll be up all night.
