NYYYYYEEEOOOOOWWWW!

Was the noise I made today. A lot.

I passed my driving test, The roads are no longer safe.

Queue up your jokes here people.

Great story behind this, but don't want to put it in in case they revoke my liscence.

"I'm glad to tell you you've passed"
"SHUT. UP. Really?"
"Yes"
"WHOOOOOO!"
"Hand over your provisional and paper counterpart and I'll send them away for you"
"Okay... wait a minute is this a trick?"
"No"
"Okay"

Not much to report

Going to Swine Flu Central for placement, and this really rips my knitting. Uni are happy to send us out to placement as its a "small risk of a mild illness", but don't want us near the uni for a week afterwards? If its so small a mild risk why are they essentially quarantining us?

Anyway - that argument discarded, not much to report really. Trying to plough through the essay. Weight still coming down.
Might have news later on, might not.

Update: Sainsburys cottage cheese is rank. I feel cheated and lied to.

Exam results

Passed!

Now one isn't a great pass, but I have to be grateful that its a pass at all at this point, as upon reflection I don't think I answered the questions correctly.

I don't care so far its a pass. Next is the essay and driving test.

DSA 1 - Me Nil

I failed my driving test. I think that I was justified though.

Apparently I clipped my wing mirror on a sign - didn't hear it, feel it or anything, but fair enough, its a my word against theirs scenario. So meh. This was 2 majors here.

Second fault - Coming down a road. 3 cars in front of me (not indicated by the way) pull out into oncoming lane and over take another leaner driver stopped in middle of the road, so I slow down, learner not moving. I stopped and then checked no more oncoming traffic, pulled out into oncoming lane and continued on my merry way. Apparently the stopping was the fault (viewed as a failure to plan ahead) - the 3 cars that went before me should have been a step for a hint. Fair enough but I explained that whilst they may have felt it was safe to do so, I wasn't sure it was so liked to check first. I think it was the stopping first though. Either way can't argue with them can I?

Fuckin' Nazis man.

Retest is booked.

Not much to update really. . .

Driving test soon.... Eyeing up a wee Ford Fiesta. Looks promising. Have to wait until pass though.

Weight still coming down, last week was a stall but since then have dropped 2.6lbs since Saturday, so looks like I was due a "whoosh". So now only 16lbs til goal weight!

Managed like a complete turnip, to go into uni on my day off. Ended up then going to mums to help with garden. Result - banging sore head, tried and sunburnt. Turns out even in Scotland I need factor 50 suncream to stop me frying to a crisp.

Popped along to friends in West End who decared she's not seen me this thin for years. :D

What else - thats about it really.
