from yesterday:


Well, it should have been a very relaxing couple of days, but as is usual for me taking time off work...it all went pearshaped.
My car stopped working on the way home on Wednesday, and it's going to cost a LOT to repair. I've had to hire a car so that i can get into work (more money), and i have managed to scratch the hire car (even more money).

So i'm now feeling very poor. But since i am reading "how to stop worrying and enjoy living" by Dale Carnegie, i am trying to remain positive.

I didn't get up to much. I finished Grandia II and sold all my ps2 games and got FFX and Splinter Cell. I finished painting the hall and made a good start on redoing the study. I did more gardening and remowed my back garden.

I decided to go with FLY Lady and do things like that for 15 minutes, filling up a couple more bin bags with garden waste and a sainburys plastic bag. I also decided to try and recycle more. I have a basket now and in go all my old magazines, envelopes and junk mail. It felt good to do something like that.

I went along to the Sutton Branch OUSA meeting. I seem to have been elected Sutton representative. Actually, i think it will be a good thing to get more involved. And, it can help me to improve my soft management skills, too. I think it would also be nice to meet other students in the Sutton area, too. I'm going to go to the regional forum on the 21st and see what happens.

I am now registered fot at272 and a297. It's scary, but exciting too...mind you i haven't even started tma06 yet and it's due in 25 days... Maybe tonight after my tutorial i will do my plan. That seems like a good idea. I still have a couple of weekends in which to do it, as well as actually spending some time on Thurs or Fri! It's entirely possible and since i am ahead on reading etc, i should do it.
