It's 2:40 and I can't sleep, so here's a post from an upset Sam.

So, started a new blog, then ignored it. What a crap blogger.

Well, the last two weeks at uni have been somewhat intense, and I'm also working on a PGCE application to be a primary school teacher. The coursework deadlines are starting to roll in and my funds are getting seriously low.

I am starting to realise that student life is slowly killing me, and has been since I enrolled.

How can we be only three weeks into first semester and I already want to burn myself alive using module handbooks for kindling?

Added to this, today I failed my driving test. Again.

That's right folks, for the third time, I failed my poxy driving test.

And you know what? I only failed it on one thing. The same thing I failed the last one on. The same thing that I do perfectly, every single lesson. That I never struggled to learn, that I never had a problem doing, that I never get wrong. Until the fucking driving test.

Reverse parking.

If I don't pass next time I'm going to reverse park the car into a river.

It just drives me mental, I can drive, I know I can drive. I'm only failing for fucking things up that I can do. And it leaves me stuck with that stupid provisional, only allowed to drive a car when someone's supervising me, whilst people who can't drive for shit are out on the road, driving like wankers, making car insurance more expensive for everyone else.

Not that I'll ever even insure a car, if I can't even pass a test.

So angry with myself.

The Gospel According To Sam Beezley: Welcome to my new blog!

Well hello there!

As you can see, I've started a new blog. I didn't really finish the last one, I went to on a couple of occasions then I decided it was a bit funnier if I didn't finish it as it might have implied that the Year Abroad had actually killed me.

(It didn't.)

So here I am, with a new blog talking about how my Final Year is treating me. My timetable isn't terrible and I do get a 3 day weekend, but Thursday is a pretty sucky day. I start at 11 and finish at 5, but only actually have three hours of classes. This is why I've chosen to start a new blog - I'm waiting for my seminar, and I have nothing to do.

So you can expect to hear quite a bit about my life as a Finalist, living on campus in a last-ditch attempt to live like a true student.
