Don't know why the title was in French - when youve spend the last week playing sudoku for 12 hours a day it does something to your mind.... 0.o I'm in my new job (getting paid £9 an hour to literally do bugger all!) and thought I'd come in and say hi seeing as I now have time to do so! And my job - dont laugh - Im a security guard! ;D Oh yeah, those terrorists planing to destroy the back door of the Guardian better watch out! I'M SO BORED!!! think of the money, think of the money.... Well, how is eveyone? Hoping all is well. Im as we speak raising omney for next year. Stil have to find a place to live *getting nervous* I've had a few nice places but not many replys, and the opne that did is now apparently ignoring my phone calls.... Though apparently Mountview said they were sending out info about accomadation and having a little 'get together' to help people sort out flatshare... (which hopefully means I wotn be living with complete strangers!) Though I better get somewhere with a bloody internet connection! I've even gone back to playing Neopets I have so little to do.... *sits* *tumbleweed* ...eh.

*hugs TW* You're a security guard?? LOL! excellent going, girl! Good luck with the flat-sharing lark- I'm in similar position, having accepted my place at Central school of speech and drama, need accomodation in Swiss Cottage! www.jigzone.com/ms/z.php?18FQHF00250381EAEB - good for boredom, or reading other people's Livejournals....

Wicked, that'll keep me going a few more hours...! Cant belive I still have 3 weeks to go...! And now theyve offered me more work afterwards! Eh! Time to buy a good book I think. I have already gotten a nice executive style leather office chair out of this - throwing it out cos it had a few screws missing - wheeled it down farringdon road and took on the thameslink home! Sweet. good sites for flat shares I've been using are: www.accommodationforstudents.comwww.spareroom.co.ukuk.easyroommate.comwww.intolondon.comI think these are most of them - theres 2 which are actually the 'same' - i.e, same adverts and when you register with one youre registaered wit the other. Cant remeber which though - its fairly obvious though. Pissed off this guy hasnt answered me - I want the room! It amazing how many people working at a national newspaper cant a) remeber their swipe cards or b) follow the simple diagram and swipe them the right way round!

Well done TW and Belle, seems to me that finding a room in London is far more difficult than it should be. I ought to try to find a room to stop my 3 hours a day commute but never really get round to it, ususally because I am too tired and fed up after the travelling.
If you could get a group together would it be cheaper to rent 2/3 bedroom flat? It'd also mean that it'd be easier to have unfinshed lycra costumes hanging around.

Well, that would be do-able if we werent all spread out across North London with our courses!
Got a viewing tonight in Turnpike lane - bout half an hours walk from Mountview. Trying to write down a list of stuff to ask about so I wont get ripped off. Rather nice people at student union are organising a few days for all the new first years to meet up and find houses.
Oh God, I have to be a first year twice. Eh.
Im being a crap security guard and falling asleep here! That'll teach me to have too many jobs...
