Partly today was a bit of travelling thirteen miles to listen to a man say stuff that I'd worked out already, but I suppose maybe the rest of the world isn't as much a chronic planning fetishist as I am...
Got lots and lots of very heavy paperwork, which made my poor shoulder near cry.
Looked like a complete dweeb eating my packed lunch (ah kids you may look cool now with your Upper Crust sammiches but wait till your loan runs out).
Met a very nice lady in finance who stopped me from having a near heart attack after...
We discovered that the bursary for being a local student isn't given until the following year now :-s
Had a look in the university branch of Waterstone's and had both happy palpitations and panicky ones; seeing all those lovely books and then seeing the price of said lovely books.
And I am already baffled by the timetable thing, not because its particularly hard, but because one set of information doesn't match another. I'm hoping the timetable leaflet is the wrong part, and thus far the evidence works in that direction. Attached to the front was an addendum deleting several modules on the pathway that my friend from college is following, and on her other subject it had two modules listed twice for no good reason. So it isn't exactly demonstrating itself to be a comprehensive and reliable document right now...
Tomorrow I get my subject introductions and have already got some questions ready (oh yessy I am that nerdy), the first one being to clarify whether the book or the timetable is correct in saying I need to take a particular module, and the second about fieldwork clashes*...
* A quick skim of the sciencey modules might well persuade one that science is basically about going on holiday (Yorkshire, Wales, Somerset, Tenerife, Mallorca...)
