Back to Work...
Today (Monday) was back to work - that's right, the old place I was sick of!
It was odd - I was actually looking forward to it. Sure - there was some money being earnt, but the chance to interact with peeps, see a fair few of my old students and actually have ot think of something outside of my own study was great.
First downside was that the scooter is playing up - so I had to use the push bike to get in (could have got the train I guess but over the week that'll wipe out a sizeable chunk of the money I make!). It all went okay - it rained, so I got wet, and it took longer than expected, but I arrived in one piece. SO all in all not too bad.
It was weird though - quite a few new faces, and I felt like an old hand, but of course to them I was this new guy who'd just arrived. Lots of questions about what I was doing back - I basically said that nothing had changed, plans are still the same, just doing some work to get a bit of cash as I had the spare time.
Anyway - all went well, although I have lost my ability to drink filter coffee all day without getting the serious caffeine jitters! All those months of instant at home!
Got home, and after some revision decided to check the UCAS tracking site - and Southampton have offered me a B :oD
SO that's everyone offered me a B, except St George's who haven't invited me for an interview yet. I know they have interviews this Wednesday, but I couldn't have gone them as I have a module exam! Hopefully I'll be getting an invite soon - my application this year is so much stronger I find it impossible to believe I won't get an interview, and whatever I decide about SOuthampton, I know that I interviewed well - so fingers crossed!
