  hey!


Well i've worked all weekend so cnt say ive enjoyed that! lol. My lectures start monday and some days im 9-5 and others only in till 12, but ive only got my planner 4 nxt wk and they said it can change. Basically they said you are contracted to 9-5 mon-fri so dnt go saying ive gotta go half way thru lectures to pick up your child etc as you were told in the interview that you would be here 9-5!. Havent had any homework yet but think as soon as i start my lectures we will. They said that this isnt a spoon fed course we will have to go onto blackboard to download lectures and see when essays are due etc. I ve made a few freinds on my course! thank god as there are 100 of us, but weve been put into small groups for tutorial time and dnt know anybody on that but im sure ill be fine. Im not from swansea  im from tonna? small village off neath, what bout you?. Thats a nice start wk in wk off lol, i havent got a week off till may! 


Hope this answers a few more of your questions!

Looks like you are settling in well there.


I am at Uni Glam just going ito my third year; It flys by so my advice is to knuckle down and do your reading. It will get you everywhere.

hey there welshgal,


well done 4 sticking to it and bet you cant believe your in 3rd year already!! hope i get that far anyways lol, im  sooo excited cant wait 2 start, reading up is nothing unusual 4 me i love tucking into my health an nursing text books so should be ok there lol, is it true though that you dony have much spare time to work though? ive been told that you dont get much time to work and im a little worried as i have saved pennies to help me through this year but was hoping to still do my homecare job some evenings n weekends to save 4 next year, what are my chances of spare time to work have you managed to fit a job in? be good if you can let me know as your at the same uni im going to, cheers hun and all the best for your last year! suzie xx
