Thought I might as well give you an update on how I'm doing at uni.

Not having to work at Somerfield any more is great! I missed sleeping in at the weekends. But today is going to be a very work-y day.

- I've GOT to tidy and clean this room - there's a dirty plate on the chest of drawers, and, worryingly, I can't remember how long it's been there. So that's job number one. DONE ( Read more... )
