Have only just received the ‘Online application received for Student Finance’.
After getting the confirmation letters. And the other e-mails.

I keep meaning to leave the house and pop over to uni, but I’ve left it too late and it’d be really awkward if I suddenly stumbled out past the carpenters with the loud voices and awkward laughs.
So I’m just going to remain hermit-like until they leave, or I truly can’t function any more. I’m so hideously hungry.
(And to anyone new to UEA on tumblr, have a fun...

It’s driving me bloody mad.

Oh student loan please do come through. I need necessities, like nice wine and facial moisturiser. My chin is horrible.
That and my coat, which my mother is supposed to be posting up to me and I now hope she hasn’t taken me up on my offer of ‘pay-on-collection’ because bollocks I have to change and do not intend to get cash money out at any point.

All 4 (4!) Chapelfield jobs are asking for previous high street retail experience. The worst part is that I have retail experience, but it never seems to count as it was voluntary. This is despite having worked on the till, stocks, accounting, display, cleaning etc etc. I’m pretty sure I got more retail experience out of working at Marie Curie than I would’ve on the high street.

riddle me this
How does one get a years worth of restaurant/waiting experience when every single sodding restaurant asks for previous experience?
