    No, I had to leave when I went back to uni because of the new flex contracts I couldn’t get just a weekend job, which is a bit annoying but with the amount of uni work I have to do maybe it was a good thing

    @Dandelion

    Ooh, how is your report going? :)

    One thing I really like about my degree is that it is timed as one module ends before the holidays and the next module does not begin until after the holidays!

    Is there anything you can do to make writing your report more fun at this time of year? For me, that would be having Christmas music on in the background!

    @GreenTea

    You still have time! If all else fails, could you write e-letters and cards or letters and cards for your neighbourhood? :)

    @Shaunie

    You are more than welcome. I hate to hear you are struggling, it makes me feel sad. I hope you will feel better soon. In the meantime though, we are all here for you with ears to spare and virtual arms for virtual hugs <3

    Hate what they’re doing with the flexi contracts I ain’t on one but it seems like everyone will be sooner or later. Makes it harder for those in education

    Yeah they used to have just weekend jobs ect. But now they have introduced flexi contracts which means basically everyone has to work the weekend. When like why change something that doesn’t need fixing. Apparently everywhere is like that now but yeah still

    I know this is gunna sound bad but I have a pesitant cough. I mean it’s not Covid. I asked my fami like Um maybe I should take the test but they was like no you always cough so much after a cold. I mean I do and I can feel it’s me doing it. It gets a habit where I can’t stop and had it since child like constantly cough where it’s a habit not that I actually need to cough if makes sense. When I’m distracted it goes

    Bless you @GreenTea. Do you feel like you have a cold or just the sneezes?

    Oh no, that sounds like a lot of people will have to compete for the same shifts @Shaunie :/ Is it because they have recognised how many people are opting for this? I am not completely sure <3
