Hah I've got one week of that to look forward to in September... except I have to drive my little sister into school every morning at 7:45am. So your situation could be worse :wink:


My friend has me driving over to his house (his own, his Grandad owns it and he's lived alone in it for the past 3 years) and helping gut it by moving heavy furniture across the road and digging out all his stuff to store or throw out (the house is being sold when he goes to uni) on a fairly regular basis at the moment. So nyaah. :p:
I got taken off my mum's insurance on Friday! Woo! lol :p: So I won't be driving anywhere.

I'm on my Mum's insurance. I quite like driving, I'm a bit worried I'll get a bit too rusty whilst i'm at college. Somehow I doubt it's like riding a bike but we'll soon see eh?!
YES for a tsr meeting in freshers week :biggrin:

Sigh I want MY reading list. *sulk.

you dont want a reading list. i'm already a little stressed about being behind and i haven't even been there a day.

Is it just girls that worry about reading lists and falling behind? Back in my days I really couldn't be bothered about reading lists.

Perhaps it's a linguist thing? Because with 7 books for French and 8 for Spanish the reading list is quite large and that's without revising grammar or vocab etc!

i have 14 spanish books alone. BOO.

But I only have to read half of them for this term and the rest are to be read at Xmas according to my reading list.

Oh no, I've just spent three weeks reading The Moonstone (my reading's been a bit erratic) because I thought it was on my literature reading list, only to discover that it's not even on the "further reading" section :eek:

Definitely I got a subscription to glamour for £14 for the year the other day which I thought was pretty reasonable!

but being relaxed is so much more relaxing than this reading malarky!
I have a subscription to The Economist. Does that count?

i nearly died of squee when i thought someone had left a copy of Attitude on the aeroplane this summer! but it was just Altitude, the airline's own magazine. though suspiciously the font and colour of the name was exactly the same as on Attitude... blatant subliminal homosexuality there...

can you get blatant subliminal things? meh
