*waves* Hope you're all well :D

Okay. So, I went to an Open Day yesterday and now I'm back to square one with degree decisions. I was so set on the Combined Honours and I still really want to do it.

But, at the uni yesterday the English Lit and Creative Writing course sounded PERFECT. As did the English and History course. I've still got another two Open Days to attend as well so I'll probably find even more things that I want to do. I had a good day though. My Mum and I went to the Open Day in the morning and then we went and had some lunch.

I'm helping out at the church fair today; the Brownies do something for it every year. I'd really prefer to just stay home and write though. I've got so much to do and, at the moment, I'm just procrastinating. I'm going to try and get at least three chapters written when I get home.

The thing is, I really want to write but I keep getting distracted by Big Bang and other fics/posts. Hmmm.

What I find is if at all possible look at the module courses and the way things are set out. You might find that one course has better modules in later years or overall. Also it'll be easier when you get your results back and can see the breakdown in every aspect of the modules you're currently taking. Maybe see if you are able to get into contact with any of the students and ask how the lecturers are like. some might be better than others.

My university has currently screwed me over by removing translation courses (I can't write essays and my attention span is shit in comparison to anything not Japan related) so I'm a bit miffed, screw you Sheffield T_T;;. It might be useful to know how long the course has been running previously for and how well in general it is known.

It might be a lot of work but you are going to end up in debt over this so you might as well make sure you get the most out of this.

Thank you so much for the advice!! What you've said really does make a lot of sense and I think I'll try and see if I can find any students to talk to :)

Sorry to here that your uni is messing you around :(

And yeah, debt. *runs screaming*
