Ok, term has started again in Swansea, and everyone is busy with enrolement, freshers fairs and settling into new houses, as usual. This is one of the reasons for my reduced blogging recently, having left behind the super-duper broadband connection and (for the moment at least) relying on the odd trip into uni to update, amid the rest of the madness.

The same problems continue, with the Landlord currently high on my hit list (mattress which is far too old and has almost exposed springs, shower which alternates between scalding and freezing, complete lack of washing machine, etc etc) along with the people in the flat above who think its ok to play their music at full blast till around 2 in the morning! Hmm, I'm not sounding very positive about this new term am I?

Well, I've enrolled on my course, all that remains now is to get my student ID card, and I start next week. I've met the other people mad enough to be doing it, and they seem friendly enough. The course I'm looking forward to, I just want my abode to be a little more habitable by then, so at the very least I can have a decent nights sleep and a shower in the morning. Now, that's not too much to ask is it? I hope not.

But I'm definately not going to be a permanent student. I can't do temporary living, at least, not like this.I do look forward to having my place, where I can settle. But, I suppose in that way, this is a means to an end, if I'm ever going to be able to afford it! There, that's more positive isn't it? :) Sorry for ranting.
