Apart from going to uni and doing uni stuff I haven't been up to much, expect finally starting work of course.
I work at Sports Direct, a big sportswear store on the edge of town and it's alright. The hours are weird and the pay is less than average - it's the minimum so I don't know if I'll be able to save much, but we'll see.
So far I've only been in the stock room, a delightfully chilly room full of stock which we have to sort out, hang and security tag. Such fun. Hopefully next time I'll be out on the shop floor doing something more interesting.
The uniform is a delightful cherry-red polo shirt with tracksuit bottoms and trainers (which we had to buy from sports direct) and it's not the best in my opinion but hey, it's a job.
We've also been busting a gut trying to find a house to live in for our second and third years of uni. Why is it so hard to find a 6-bed student house with 1 car parking that isn't ridiculously expensive. Everytime we find a place we ring up to view and it's gone already. ARGH!
So apart from the massive stress of finding a house and fitting work around my studies life is going pretty well.
Looking forward to Christmas!!
