The Uni Looney

ME, that’s right this Looney has been around for an entire year! I just can’t believe I only have two years left of being an Undergrad, it sucks. Thank you to all of you in the blogsphere for all your support and advice it really has helped! An yes when I was little I had a cake like this...and yes I still want one like this :P

So I got my results today and I will be honest im disappointed. My results are:

Public Law - 61
Contract Law -51
Human Rights - 64
Legal Systems - 66
Legal Skills - 69
Elective - 75

I was aiming for first and in my assessments I was hitting that target but it looks likes the exams I haven’t done as well on. This means I need to revise my exam technique and adapt it to hit those First grades.

I could really use peoples honest opinion of these grades, will they hold me back if I want to be a Solicitor or Barrister?

Hello,

Sorry it’s been so long, but I have been working my butt off to get as much money possible over the last month before I had to leave my job over the summer till September (when I hopefully return for my second year of studies). Well today was payday and I am back now at home living with the parents (joy!).

So what’s going on?

My University results are going to be released this time next week, and I’m not nervous or even bothered by them. Even though it’s the wrong attitude, at the moment I feel very relaxed about life in general.

Next year I have planned to go backpacking across Europe. Its only for two weeks but if it goes ahead and I like it I’m thinking of going around Asia the following year for a longer time.

I have decided to read and write more, and by write I think that means to keep more on top of my blog.

Also

Looney met a girl, another one at that! This time it was different though, we met through work and been going out for the past month, and it seemed we just clicked having the same energy. Unfortunately though she has moved to London to start her Postgrad and a new job (And is the main reason why I haven’t wrote anything in the past month - oops).

That pretty sums it up! Even though I have only been writing once a month, being very inactive for me, I have been reading everyone’s blogs when I get a quick five minutes =]. I won’t be around over the weekend but Monday onwards I will be here .

Well I haven’t wrote about the ones in my life for a while but I want to tell you about the ones who ARE NOT in my life. I caught up with my old college friend who also works with my sister
the other week. Amongst the old talk she drops this in.

“Oh I heard you and drunken-mistake girl are nearly going out now”
I was gob smacked. Seriously, if forcing her hands around my head and biting my entire neck off is classed as going out with someone then its new to me!

When I asked her to explain apparently this girl when going back to her home city has been telling all her mates this, which has led it to get back to my mate and then me.

Im not full of myself and I don’t think im gods gift, absolutely not but to lie about these things are pathetic. Especially when I have saw this girl countless times before and we have only ever talked...no flirting no kissing just talked...about Law.

Sorry it has taken so long! Exams have finished and I feel that I have passed and will say more about them at a later date. Recently I have been suffering from the flu which has lasted throughout the exam period :(. (summer flu not swine flu I might add). Unfortunately nothing has really happened, that’s significant to write about. I have some posts that I want to do before I start my second year of university (YESSS ITS GONE THAT FAST!).
Im still around following people’s blogs sorry for lack of comments!! Now exams are over I have no excuse =]

Now exams are finished all I have been doing is working doing as many hours I can in Primark. My new employer who is surprisingly not bad , who would of guessed. An because people are now leaving for their homes and I got another month at my university I decided to invest in a pc game around £2.99 to keep myself entertained. This has resulted me in being totally geekly addicted to Civilization IV (with all expansions).

An I also got myself a blackberry and love it, anyone else got one?

Btw there will be a post I have half done about Hazel Blears who is my MP in the next few days.....

till then...

The clock is ticking and my first exam is NEXT WENESDAY. I have done NO REVISION. Why you probably think, well I thought they were in June not May. I feel sick, what am I going to do a year’s worth of revision of Public Law in less than a week and then I got six days before I sit my Contract Exam.

I can’t believe this has happened usually I’m organised. I don’t think there will be much posting off me till after the exams.

Anyway better go I got a date, with the Library!!!

My student loan has came through and I will be honest, for the first time in two years I feel flush. I worked it out that for:

An 18 month contract it would cost in total £630

And for the 24 month contract £840

Now if u minus the price of the phone itself (£342)

For an 18 month contract it would cost in total £288

An for a 24 month it would cost £492

Now on Pay as you go (as I am now) phone:

I pay £360 every 18 months running it

I pay £480 every 24 months running it.

So now I am wondering what should I do, get the Iphone or not get the Iphone? Please help me decide!
