University update!


 






8. Woodland Lever Arch File (Paperchase)
10. Commandments sticky notes - similar 
11. Candle holder (market in turkey)
12. Pizza cutter (I can't find it but it's from some sort of pound shop and it's blue)
15. Mini Buddha (similar)
16. Evil eye hanging ornament (a market in turkey)
19. Ceramic bowl (this is from a market in Turkey - similar)
20. Sugar spoons (from same market!) 
21. Book poster (I'm not sure where my godmother bought it from but you can buy it here)
22. Mini clock (I'm not sure where my godmother got this either)
23. Mini print (same as above)

They all each told me I had to email them stating the change, then I was told I had to phone and then I even had to post a few letters. It resulted in lots of tea, complaining to my cat and maybe wishing I had never applied to Southamptonin the first place!!

It's mainly all sorted now apart from Student Finance who still say my loan goes to Southampton even though I've sent them a letter and phoned twice! 
But hey ho, I'm very very nervous but also a bit excited! 

Has anyone else has application issues or Student Finance woes? 

Thanks for reading! :)

Open days & stationary hoarding!

A big part of my summer has been spent visiting university open days and collecting prospectus'. I've been to quite a few open days and I still haven't decided my university choices or whether I actually enjoy going to them in the first place.
Open days could be seen as a very informative well spent Saturday or the complete opposite! A plus is getting free stationary with the university logo - I think I have around 15 pens, a mug and some sticky notes in my collection. If a university ever gives out a notebook, I'll put it as my first choice. I have 3 definite options so far, but it's all so hard to choose as all universities I've been to have good points and bad points - going to a uni that combines all those would be nice!

Focussing on the nearer future, I'm back at college. Boo! This year is crucial so I need achieve the grades needed to get the right UCAS points.
One of the only plus sides to going back to college is buying new stationary. I'm a massive nerd and will buy stationary even if I don't need it. Buying stationary brings me joy and feeling of warmth! Haha.

Paperchase is my weakness!!!!

Below are some of the things I got.
