Sorry it's been a long time again people. I have had the maddest month ever. I have passed all my exam resits with the exception of Quantitative Methods which I am doing this year. My girlfriend of two months has been down. She is called Laura and she has been really supportive of me over the last two months and has helped to turn my life around. I told Rob Miles about her and his reaction was "Wow, a computer scientist with a girlfriend". He was joking about it.
I have been helping out at International Week as a volunteer. I have been helping to move people into University Accommodation and while doing so have met a few friendly faces. I also have new housemates. I am living with two American girls who are really friendly and a lad from London who is equally as friendly. I love the atmosphere that my new housemates have helped me to create. We all pin our doors back and just hang around in each others' rooms.
I should be getting broadband shortly although it is taking its time. The thing that gets to me the most is the library now has "new" opening hours. They are only open till seven on Monday and Tuesday, till five on Wednesday and Thursday and till four on Friday. The library is no longer open on a weekend so I now NEED a broadband connection because I can't use the 24 hour center because they use 14" CRT screens which are very old and flicker and they have set the resolution to 1,024x768 and I need it at 800x600 on a 14" screen. They don't have ZoomText although that should be coming shortly. If I don't get my broadband, I fear that I cannot continue my studies at this university and will have to drop out and re-apply to a different university next year.
In other news, Vodafone have agreed to install Talks for free on my Nokia N73 which would help me although I am STILL waiting for my Nokia 6280 unlocking code, which has annoyed me as I have paid £15 for it, which I can ill afford.
I do however want to make it a good year, for it to be better than last year.
