Feckin' Students ;o)

The big day was upon me - today was the day to actually go and enrol for my classes. The Human Bio option was a definite, and I had to discuss the possibility of a chemistry AS as well. I headed off to Croydon College, got there about eleven, and hoped to be out of there by twelve. I actually think they were pretty efficient, just had a huge number of people to deal with, but it ended up taking two and a half hours or so.

All went well - they thought I'd be able to handle the A level in one year no problems, suggested a book specifically for peeps doing biology who didn't have chemistry, and all in all were very helpful. I met several adults while I was there, and the majority of them were teachers looking for a career change! Maybe there's some sort of pattern emerging!

Then downstairs to pay, which was the longest wait, but they had stacks of peeps and a take a ticket system, and it wasn't too bad. Then off to get my NUS card - so a trip across the orad to Somerfields to get some passport piccies!

And now - I'm officially a student, with an NUS card, pass to get into the college, but no grant. What happened to them anyway??

The bits of my past that I wasn't keen on have been got rid of - today saw the start of the journey to replace them with more worthy things. I'm excited :oD
