good news
I've been invited to interview for the MSc in mid-July, the day after my sisters arrive. They originally invited me to come this Wednesday, when Andy will (hopefully) be throwing himself out of a plane. I'm glad they could reschedule. What does one wear to an academic interview? How smart should I go for? It'll probably be quite a hot day and my interview is at 1.30pm, so I'll get to brave the underground at its hottest. Joy for looking bedraggled and hot for interviews!
I'm feeling quite confident about it - I just hope it's everything I want it to be. I think just going back to school will be great, but commuting to London will not be fun/cheap. I'll probably have to buy a season ticket on the trains. At least I know that the prospect of a higher paid job awaits me on the other end!
In other news, today is my last day of work on my 30-hour/week contract. From tomorrow, I'm a free agent. I work when I want, how much I want. It's brilliant. I'm very much looking forward to it. There should be plenty of work around for as long as I want it, but I can choose to have the weekend off if I want it and things like that. Fantastic!
I hope the weather tomorrow is as nice as they say it should be - 27°C and sunny and me with nothing better to do than lie in the sun reading.
