Back to the future, 2!

I've been getting miscellaneous letters from UCAS and Salford congratulating me on getting a confirmed place on the course and having a confirmed place in accommodation. I'm not entirely certain, but I think that means that there is now very little that can stop me from going to uni, which means that it is actually, really happening.

This is quite a big thing for me, I mean Im excited, so excited am I that the Im glad the seat I sit on now has a waterproof leather cover, incase I wee with excitement, I've never done it before but hey, its kinda like a heart attack, even the first time can be a big issue.

Anyway anyway anyway, yes I am ready for uni, and I am very glad that I won't be going there alone, I have some friends who are making the monumental step to higher education along with me, which I am very greatful for believe me. Still waiting on my finances to be confirmed, hmm, I'd forgotten about them, maybe theres something that can throw a spanner in the works after all! oh deary...

I am very thankful for the oppertunity to go to university, and often find myself looking back at what my life might have been like had I been born a hundred years ago, being down in the pit with no hope of a future beyond the life I have known in wigan. Infact even looking back twenty or thirty years would have seen my life with different oppertunities, for you see people from lower, working class families like mine didnt go into education, we got a trade and we stuck to it, or we simply didnt last. I'm going to try my best at my studies, for all the people who have missed out on the oppertunity to excel simply because of the wrong place and the wrong time.

PS; incase you are confused, the title is a reference to this post, made when all this Uni business began.
