Letting the World pass you by..

Sat here in Costa Coffee where I have spent the afternoon (and a rather large part of it) discovering how nice it is to actually not do much. I have probably been here the longest out of all the coffee-goers and I am probably the only one who forgot my coffee club points card, dammit!

As the actual coffee drinkers are drinking their coffee and I'm intent on having the weaker stuff, a good old British cup of tea (four of them actually..) I have read two magazines I recently purchased, cover to cover and have thoroughly relaxed, so much that I don't think I can bear to move in case my legs give way. If that happened, the hardcore caffeine addicts will laugh and point. So I better not, and save myself some dignity and carry on sipping my slightly cold brew.

Thoroughly enjoying my afternoon watching everyone else go about their lives whilst I people watch and chat small talk to the occasional family that sits next to me.

Will certainly be doing this more often!

When Life Hands You Lemons..

Today I have been handed lemons. Lemon's in the form of a Conditional Offer to the University that happens to be my first choice.. However, its not for the course I applied for. Okay, it is but they have offered me for a course that has a prequel year of preparing portfolios etc, before actually starting the course I wanted to do.

I suppose it is like a Foundation Degree before I start, which is good as I still avoid the nine-thousand-pound-a-year-life-trap. But I originally wanted to jump straight into the course.

University for 4 years of my life and then maybe 5 if I chose to do a masters..?

Should I just squeeze?

Yours, deep in thought..
Rachel
