    I’m so proud of you!
    The purpose of life is not to be happy. It is to be useful, to be honorable, to be compassionate, to have it make some difference that you have lived and lived well.

    Ow! Flare! Both wrists and half the fingers on both hands. I've even taken ibuprofen!

    Module started in October, dad loaned me the money to pay for it. The OU then informed us 3 weeks into the module that because our first module started the 1st February, that will be our loan payment date. So already, they have a lot of not happy MSc students.

    6th Feb today and they still haven't let the SFC know I'm actively studying....

    I sent a snotty email over the weekend. Pointed out they were preventing me from paying the loaned money back. Also pointed out they hadn't communicated that Feb would still be our loan date, despite the module starting October. That way it's in writing.

    Swotting and can feel my anxiety levels rising. It's probably a good thing that it's too late to cancel my theory test!
