This is my first blog and I'm not sure what to do, so I guess I just chat on!
Well my day started when I found out Direct Line had taken over £550 out of my account instead of £54. I had a slight panic because I thought I was in the money. Didn't see the minus sign did I!?Anyway they say they are refunding it but I wasn't impressed and complained to my bank that they let it happen. Apparantly if you have a Direct Debit they can just go in and take your money without the bank doing anything, even if it's obviously a cock-up. That's a bit Orwellian!
My friend is distraught. She got her Dissertation back and got 50. I really didn't know what to say because I didn't want to be one of those annoying people who say everything's going to be alright and it's not the end of the world. What do they know they aren't in your situation!? So I wrote her a list of everything I love about her and ten things she could do without a 2:1. She has just moved into a Hot Fuzz style village where her family had to pass tests to get in and they have an annual duck race and scarecrow making competition. I told her she could gain a farmer accent and spend her time making said scarecrows. She started crying. But she said it was because the reasons why I love her were nice...I'm not too sure :-s
Anyway I'm off to bed to read Chronicle of a Death Foretold...I didn't get much sleep last night. I was woken up by people coming back from a night out and by the time I started to drift off again I thought it was 3am. That was until one of them announced the bird were singing...it was 5am!I've just turned 21. I'm getting too old for this!xxxx
