woo-hoo!

i got in to uni!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i’m not sure i can express how much this means to me but those exclamation marks should give you a bit of a clue.

after almost a decade of illness-induced misery and pain, i feel like i’ve been given another chance at life over the last year or so - and this cements all of that and proves i haven’t been kidding myself about what i can achieve. (now might be the time to credit gemma for such a rocking recommendation).

so, naturally, i can’t stop crying. it’s either the emotion of the day, or the thought of all those essays… 

dazed and confused on

    Well done! I’m really, really pleased for you. I was a late entrant to uni too (although 24 rather than 29). It was great fun and all the more so for going as a mature student who’d chosen to be there, rather than going at 18 because it was expected. I really made the most of my 4 years and would do it all again if the student grant hadn’t been abolished!
