Technology at its best

I got a letter this morning from Uni with my computer username and password! I was so happy because it means they haven't forgot me! Anyway, tried all day to sign in, but it says my password isn't recognised. There is also a little not saying if I can't log on and enroll online, not to worry as they'll help me do it on my first day. As it's the Christmas holidays there is nobody at Uni to ring up and get help from so I'll have to wait until January. Never mind, at least I've heard something positive!

I hope you all have a Merry Christmas, eats lots, drink more and have fun! xxx

Bit of a MAJOR STRESS!!!

I really hate filling out forms. I always cock them up but asking for two would make me look a bit special. I need to fill out the Bursary one then the CRB one when I get it.

I start 12th Jan and I still haven't heard anything, so I decided to try and be pro-active. I rang the NHS Bursary place to see what my student number is, which I need in order to complete the form, it's all filled in apart from this one bit. So calling them up and I find out they don't even have me on record, then they suggested I call the Uni to make sure I definately have a place!

*major massive panic*

The nice lady at Uni says they've not sent the list of people who are doing my course, which is why the Bursary people don't have a clue who I am. Was a bit relieved, but after I put the phone down I thought I should have asked if she could double check my name was on their list, as I get myself stressed easily (What if they didn't get my confirmation that I'd take the place? What if they don't have enough people on the course so they don't run it this year? What if I'll be too late to get my bursary?...) Like I say I stress myself out! So basically I'm no further forward, and I wish it wasn't all so last minute! Actually no, scrap that, I wish it was further forward, say, middle of January so I'd have started, got my stuff sorted and be getting stuck in!

Occupation Health Woes

When I was sent my offer, I had a load of forms to fill out, one of which was the Occ Health form. Anyway I sent it of the next day and this morning I got a letter saying I needed to ring them. I was worried, as always haha, I’m convinced something is going to go wrong with this and I will end up not being a nurse! I rang them up and they said that as I didn’t have a record of having a BCG I either had to provide evidence or have a test. After asking my Mam, she said I had the ‘stamp’ thing done when I was little and the reaction meant I didn’t need to BCG. Thing is, I had no actual proof that this happened, and I needed some! So, I rang round everyone (doctors, old school health dept, old doctors, everyone!) Eventually the receptionist at my doctors surgery said she’d get my file and go through it, which she did and was very helpful, however there was no records of this test. Back on the phone to occ.health who told me I needed to come and see them and get a Mantoux test done, which would clear all this up. Appointment is 5th Jan, I start on the 12th! Nothing like cutting it fine, ey?!

Just Wanted To Say...

I'm so excited! And I just can't hide it! I'm about to lose control and I think I like it!

Woo! I just want to get stuck in SO much! COME ON JANUARY! Hurry Up!
