So much to do so little time!

I think the title of this post is self-explainatory. I have so much to do and only 13 days to do it! I still haven't sent my NHS bursary forms away- I havent got a passport or any other of the photo i.d that they require so can't do anything at the moment and I can't get i.d until my verifier gets in touch and tells me when they are available to sign the forms! I probably won't get any money until December now and will have to live of my student finance loan which won't be much. I wish the world didn't revolve around money! I also desperately need to get some new clothes but travelling to university is more important!

Enrolled online yesterday to my student portal! It is all getting very real now! I found out that we are all going to have a breakfast together on our first day which will be nice!! I want to know how many days per week we are going to be in as well but the details are not online yet!! :(

14 days! OMG

So I have 20 days until I'm a student midwife. To say I'm excited and nervous would be an understatement! I've been waiting for this moment for so long! When university's told me that I would not get into Midwifery as it was so competitive and the fact I had no A levels and no experience would go against me I'm so glad I wasn't persuaded like some of my friends to change my mind. Some of them wanted to do childrens nursing and midwifery but followed the uni's advice and now they are regretting it.

I'm very scared of all the responsibility I will have- not so much when I'm a student but when I qualify. Anything goes wrong and it's on my shoulders! I feel so young to have that responsibility. I'm scared I'm not academic enough to complete the degree. I'm scared I will forget important things when I'm on the ward and that I won't be able to pronounce certain words.

Anyway enough negativity! I've been buying stationary whilst it's on special offer. I think this is my favourite sort of shopping! I still have some bits left to buy but not much!!! Ive been boring- well I call it professional and bought everything in plain white, brown and black colours! I'm growing up!!!

Autumn feels like it's coming again, I cannot wait for scarves, boots, fluffy blankets and Halloween! I'm defo making some toffee apples this year and skull chocolates covered in glitter....yuuummmm!

Look at these wonderful ideas!!!



Those bom boms look AMAZING! I wonder if they would work with chocolate truffles? Guess I will have to try it out!
