Life in the UK test
Notes for tomorrow. Somehow it sticks better if I write it or type it. Some HTML might help things stick.
If I pass, I may have to have to celebrate. If I fail, well, I will be going broke trying to pass it before December at £30+ a go.
I told my manager that I'm leaving a bit early so I can study, but to be honest, I don't have any work lined up for tomorrow so I may get to study at my desk. Then it's a short walk behind the University to the Newland Science park. Never heard of the place or seen it but at least it's close by.

There's loads more I have to know but I'm damn tired, I'm all studied out and had a rough day. :( More on that later.
If anyone says "OMG BUT IT'S SOOOOO EAAASSSYYY!!!" I'm going to stab them in the face and piss in the wound. Sometimes even simple things are hard when you're dyslexic.
