no longer sleeping next to me
oooh well were to start
I seem to be doing a termly update, but sooo much has happened
Well suppose its best to start at the begining since the recent bits have got a wee bit rubbish
January was spent teaching at Newport, was crapping it, but it went really well. I think Im less scared to take risks and have more confidence in my ability to teach from it which I think is all I can ask for really. My birthday was a bit surreal, I didnt really want to turn 20 and not be a teenager anymore, had a good night though was fairly chilled out and got to catch up with people piccys
Since then its been back to uni and mainly a load of graft (the third years certainly werent lying when they said this term was well shit) but the assignments for the year are in now THANK FUCK!
And recently Ive had the month from hell
Just managed to catch John to say goodbye before he went to Afghanistan, that almost didnt happen which caused major stress
Lost my campus card which means I cant get to the library, or main campus - not a biggy, but left me rather screwed getting up to campus when i had an interview for something I really want to do in the Summer, but managed to pull in a fair few favours that meant i got everything sorted.
The biggys,
Grandads been getting more and more ill, he had an angiagram in January and got told hed need an operation then, but only today got a date for next month and its got worse so he needs a quadruple heart bypass, im shitting myself, when he told me on the phone that it got worse it was all i could do to stop myself crying. This whole being strong for everyone, my gran and mum as well as my grandad, its not easy
And well friday, me and a bus made friends, yes I crashed my car, leaving me in a state of shock (thank fuck thats all it left) but my car is in the garage and highly likely to be a write off. Im sooo screwed! Only thing that went through my head when i heard the noise was SHIT, ive become so dependant on that car its unreal, and well its fairly obvious what its going to do to my insurance. So im officially skint until i know the full extent of everything cause well im already overdrawn but im going to have to avoid spending whatever money does come in just in case. Fairly jumpy in the cars ive been in since this weekend, which doesnt bode well for the first few times ill be getting behind the wheel on my own again.
ah well, welcome to the hermits life
