Favours: Update!

Remember my post about how I feel about asking for favours? No? Here’s a reminder. So what was the outcome?

Make a negative a positive: Update

So I spent all that time coming up with an awesome Plan B if I didn’t get into uni in this blog post here. In fact, my Plan B is so frigging awesome, I was a tiny little bit disappointed when I was offered a place this September on the law course I wanted to…

Favours

A list of things I hate: 1. Mornings 2. Burnt toast 3. Asking for favours I’m moving. So I need all the help I can get, but I simply can’t ask for help…
