| Update - House, move, exams and all that jazz! |

| [ | mood |
| | stressed | ] | It's suddenly dawned on me that the next two weeks are pretty damn important in terms of the rest of my life. What happens next is pretty much all my responsibility and if I crap it up I don't only crap up my life, I'll make Jonny's a bit rubbish too! Jonny has done everything he needs to do in terms of moving - he's found himself a new shop, all his references for the house are sorted etc etc. Me, on the other hand has the power to make the whole thing a right royal fuck up! My credit rating is shit (I basically don't have one due to never having any debt/credit cards/loans etc) so I've got to get my parents to act as a guarantor, which hopefully will go to plan although they've never had any debt/credit cards/loans etc either so there is the potential for it all to go tits up! Nevertheless, we are remaining positive and are currently trying to find furniture bargains left right and centre. I also so far don't have a new shop to go to when I move and I don't even want to think about what will happen if I fail my exams (which I'm not planning on doing but you never know!)
Anyway, the whole thing is a little bit stressful, mainly because I feel like it's all resting on me now, but it'll all be worth it in the end!
We had a drama practical exam on Tuesday, in which I played Margaret Thatcher (so very me... not!) and we got a high 2:1 so that's one thing I don't have to worry about. Picked up my abnormal psychology essay today as well which I got a first for, which I am very pleased (and shocked) about as it was a bloody hard question; basically an argument about whether schizophrenia (as one illness) exists or whether it is a combination of illnesses or whether it doesn't exist at all... is it a psychological disorder or a neurological one and if so then it isn't a mental illness at all, blah blah blah!!
Plans for my 21st are going well - ordered my dress (technically a corset and skirt) from The Dark Angel and it is absolutely stunning and fits perfectly which is always good! Not going to post a picture of it (although I am dying to show everyone) because the model looks better in it than I will and I don't want the whole world to see it before the party, but if you're really nice to me (and aren't coming to my party) I might be persuaded to send you the link.
Can't think of anything else at the mo, got loads of photos sitting around on my camera begging to be uploaded but never seem to have time to do anything at the moment. Which begs the question, why am I sitting here typing this when I have 1000 things to do?
Anyone on facebook feel free to add me - I appear to be addicted. Look under Ashley Austin and I'll be there with blue hair :-) |

it is very blue hair. mine is very spiky ;-)
references and credit records are a right pain in the proverbials. it's all a bit perverse - never get yourself into debt and you get punished for it!
it all sorts itself out in the end, just takes ages. remember that it's in the letting agency's interest to have you paying money to them!
happy birthday for whenever it is.
