So, it's 2pm, I'm still in bed, when I get a text from my good friend Joanne. She says she's phoned Newcastle college and they said we can go down to enroll, and that we have until 7pm to do so. So we meet at the Metro station at 4, and cruise down. After a long rainy walk through a load of dodgy streets, we finally reach the college (a lot of it is run down) and go to the sports centre where we're supposed to meet a load of teachers etc, get advice and stuff. Only it's empty, and all we can find is a confused security guard, who has to stay there till 10am tomorrow so no-one steals the PCs they have there (last year people knocked the breeze blocks of the building through, and took out a load of computers. Going through the wall meant they didn't set the alarms off. Clever. I think it was Stryke who did it) and all he can tell us is that everyone packed up and left at 4. The bar stewards. Curse them all to heck. So, we had to go home, in the rain again, and we couldn't even talk on the Metro back because it was so packed. So, we have to go down tomorrow... at about 12pm, grr, I should still be in bed at that time!

Only good thing that came out of our little adventure was that I got to see Jo, as although we're pretty good friends, we hardly ever see each other "in the flesh", instead we chat on MSN etc. Ah well.

Stupid colleges, wasting my precious time. Could've been in bed till 5pm today, not wandering around in the rain

Uni fees - True, blame the government

Exams early - Errr no... I sat my first exam nearly 3 months ago and whilst stress of actual results I have no confidence in exam board that they will actually be right :P

*boom, boom, teesh!*

Yes, yes, very funny

The truth is even funnier though, that I'm pap at Maths (though I could've got a C if I'd tried I'm told) Then again, I was told I get could a B in Sociology, and on Thursday I'm sure I'll see a big E or D instead

If need be. But hopefully I'll have just failed the exams I just did in June, and passed the ones I resat, so I can resit them by themselves, instead of having to redo the entire college

When people tell you not to waste your time at school - LISTEN TO THEM! I've wasted the last two years of my life by not working at school and by lazing around. Now I'm paying for it

Curse you, Stryke! Oh, and they wouldn't have just stolen your wallet, they would've thrown you in the river yourself, had you not disposed of them when you did. We geordies, and our PCs, are evil

Anyway, probably gonna do English lit A level (I need more A levels) and possibly redo Sociology and Theatre Studies (if I've failed them that is. I find out on Thursday) and a media course, as well as Maths GCSE (I got an E in it all those years ago)
