End of an era, and a new beginning

University life has just started for my sister Flick. She moved in on Thursday, with my teary eyed mother and my father trying to work out how to set up the Internet, the phone and the TV signal all at the same time, which was rather funny!
Her room looks so, hmm how can i say this... It looks so...Flick! That the only word to describe it, because her room no matter where she is, will always look the Flick way. Here is my dictionary definition:
Flick's room look- this is a style of utter organised chaos, only the owner, Flick knows where items are placed. To any normal person the room looks an absolute tip, but to people who know her or the person in question, the room is a organised filing system.

So today, we went over to her uni because it was freshers festival. It was so fun! There was rock climbing, those people who walk on stilts dressed as characters from fairy tales, a huge marquee that housed 3000+ students and family with stalls where the students got some information from. Oh and a BBQ, with yummy burgers!
Also Flick needed to get some card, which basically lets her be a full student! So were queuing up for at least half an hour with 10-15 people in front of us, and the bloody Que doesn't move AT ALL! So i go up to the front to see whats happening, and its utter chaos! All the cards were everywhere, folders with students names were at other ends of the table, rather than the students just saying their name and getting their card, they had to be ticked off a list, that took 10 minutes to locate! Anyway to end this story short they lost Flicks card, then after me complaining (as i do when i ended up queuing for 1 hour and 30 Min's!!!) to the guy about the system they have not working and it being ridiculous, they found the card!

Phew that's my rant over! Think happy thoughts Nichola!

OK and some more bad news I'm afraid :( My guinea- pig was very very old, and its sister died at least 4 months ago. So yesterday my dad was at the house and checked on the guinea pig (Millie), she was sat in a corner, she couldn't move to get water or food, so my dad had to feed her for a while so she wasn't dehydrated or hungry. The next day mum and dad took Millie to the vets. They said that her heart wasn't beating very fast and basically has hours to live :'( So we ended up having to let her go by putting her down :''( So i was extremely sad that day.

But on a lighter note, I'M GETTING THE WHOLE GRANT FOR UNI!!! (Well hopefully anyway, as my dad isn't working anymore due to retirement, so he wont be getting a whole chunk of money as he use to!) Even though my dad will be earning lots of money through a turntable business :) super happiness time 10!!!
