Uni is fast approaching an end and it has been plaguing me quite a lot as i have no plan as to what to do with my life afterward (besides staying in St Andrews for at least 2 more years to be with Nick). After trolling through housing lists and such looking for a place for 3 people starting on the 1st June as I get kicked out on the 31st May I have found no such place in price range/appropriate with 12 month lease/decent distance from town etc so it is looking like getting a flat in Sept is the better plan...this leaves the summer as a problem where by accommodation needs found...or does it...Nick's parents have said that we can have one of the cabins and stay in Vermont for the whole summer!!!!!!!! This makes me happy as I love Vermont and Nick's family and won't be left in St Ands for 2weeks to a month while Nick went to visit his family in June (which was the original plan). Also as I can really relax and write in Vermont I have decided to write a book-out of the blue as nobody knew that I had authorial tendencies/dreams as they have been lying dormant since Uni/Shire/Life got in the way. I have a great idea for the book (its kinda sci-fi/fantasy/based on actual history but I won't put the actual plan down as it could jinx it/be stolen).
The spanner: graduation is at the end of June, I have spent 4 years working on this degree and I really wanted to attend the ceremony, have the pictures, perhaps even have my parents come up to see it (unlikely i know) but as I get kicked out of halls at end of March it will firstly be impossible to find crash space for a month.
Nick has to go home at start of June since he still hasn't been in America on a date that the court wanted him for last summers arrest (he was supposed to go at Christmas time but they set the date after our flight home in Jan so they re-scheduled again) and I am not spending a month away from him.
Flights are too costly for me to go there with nick and fly back to graduate and then fly again to America
A conclusion to this is that I will most likely miss the ceremony, though the degree will prob be shitty anyway as katie stevenson is screwing me over in terms of grades pulling down my entire average
