have finally achieved this.
Have put various posters up, noticeboard is almost halfway full, can’t really do much about the state of the walls/curtains/carpet but I have cut out some pictures from magazines and put them up to cover the worst of it.

How I did it: Booked myself an appointment at a hairdressers well renowned for colouring, then sat in the hairdressers chair and explained that I wanted a blue streak down the right side of my hair to looks of disbelief.Then came the task of bleaching my hair (twice - v.itchy) then applying toner to get rid of the yellow. Only then was the light blue colour applyed which turned out green so the hairdresser put a darker blue on top and it came out perfe… Read how I did it…
How I did it: Basically getting 2 alarm clocks, and making sure I got up when they went off. Going to bed a bit earlier probably helps too.The best thing tho was having something to get up for, then you HAVE to do it. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Applied through UCAS - my school gave me a REALLY good reference (which I read through) and my personal statement must have been proof read about 50 times. I got 5 teachers to look through it as well as my parents, friends and someone I know who is currentely doing a similar course at university.Eventually got offers from all 5 of my choices, so now I just have to get the grades and decide where I want to go.

I have moved to uni and I have never felt so inferior some days…right now I’m sitting in my room alone as my floormates are people who I would usually despise in any other situation, but instead I let them drag me to the most inane clubs I have ever seen.
Don’t get me wrong, it’s not always like this but today has been the WORST day. They have all just stayed in their rooms watching bloody boybands on youtube. Unless its the clash/green day etc i HATE boybands. I have tried to connect with them but it’s just not happening.
The rest of the people in my house all have a completely different background to me (lived in the country attended private school has at least 2 ponies each) and have formed cliques pretty damn quickly so much so that I can’t go in the common room on my own as I would just feel v.alienated.
It can only get better right??? I’m starting my course tomorrow hopefully I’ll make friends there.
After I log off from this I’m going to listen to The Clash v.loudly and go into the common room alone…..crap.
and the nervousness has already started! I need to get a grip and just go with it I guess…..
