...is what I got when I got bored and typed "grammatically correct nonsense" in Google and was presented with this site.
So this morning, just like any other morning, I was awoken at 5:30 by what I thought was "The Last Post" being played by someone who obviously has nothing better do in the early hours of a Sunday morning than practise their trumpet/bugle skills (head here if you've never heard "The Last Post"). Chantelle thought I was crazy, and I had considered this proposal, seeing as it was after all 5:30 in the morning and I could well have been dreaming it. But no, as I was parking up on our street earlier this afternoon, once again the poignant and tuneful notes of the aforementioned memorial ditty began floating across the street. Maybe I am crazy. Maybe somewhere in my life "The Last Post" has played a rather important part, and is now embedded in the fibres of my, let's face it, messed up consciousness.
We have a new Stake President. His name is Rick van den Dungen Bille. He's a Californian. With a Dutch heritage. Living in Beverley. Presiding over the Hull (and surrounding area) region of the LDS Church. Whilst we're not exactly encouraged to drink, I wouldn't mind having a go at saying "President Rick van den Dungen Bille" after a few shots.
The cat is nowhere to be found. Suspect that aforementioned kitty may be discovered by dishing up some yummy cat food.
Now I'm seeing trees walking out of the neighbour's garden.
All in all a very surreal day so far.
Will keep you posted on the location of the moggy.
Well I've decided to wade into the fun filled world of UCAS and University applications!! All my personal details are filled in and a bit of employment history has been added, now I've got to back through my certificates and records and whatnot to try and find all my grades, months and years completed and so on...fun! Turns out I only have a couple of days left to apply now, before I have to wait till clearing in August to try and snatch a place!
My plan is to study a Joint Honours in Business and Marketing, but I've also chosen the courses individually should I fail to make it onto my first choice.I've been thinking more and more about the courses I've chosen, and remember just how much I enjoyed Business Studies at school and college...I also had a go on the BBC Bitesize revision website last night to see how much I remembered, and passed all of the tests.....sooo I just wait and see what Hull Uni have to say about me, and see if I'm in.........the advantage to applying now is that I'm "in the queue" and can always reject their offer if something else comes along in the meantime...
(Ooh, wait, I've just remembered, my CV has all my grades and dates on......but they need to know the examining boards aswell.....d'oh!!)
I watched a story on the local news tonight about two brothers who have been sending each other the same birthday card to each year for the last 40 or so years....and each time they've added a few stories or anecdotes from their life over the past year each time....now that's a brilliant idea for a birthday!
Will keep this thing updated with my UCAS progress =D
