    It's a game, it comes out every day and you have to try and guess the 5 letter word, here's the link to it if you're interested https://www.powerlanguage.co.uk/wordle/

    @Dancer Hmm I don't know could be either I guess, if you feel hungry you could eat something else or maybe wait a bit and then if you're still hungry then, have a snack?

    Okay I think I've sorted my assignment out, I'm 55 words over the word count but that shouldn't be too hard to take out

    ooh that sounds well nice. I don;'t know what to do today. My date cancelled because she has a migraine... I still got up and got dressed though. I hoovered the floor and ate some doritos and watched tiktok for way too long haha. Might go to the gym room later for a bit to pass the time.

    Oh no @Jellyelephant that's a shame, hopefully she'll feel better soon and you can re schedule. I'm trying to hold on till 4, then I fully plan to spend the rest of my day watching TikTok lol


    What I did when I was choosing uni @Zay it's sounds really stupid but I made pros and cons lists as there were so many factors about why I liked certain uni, you could maybe try that and see if that helps at all.

    I had counselling at school today. Turned more into art therapy because me and my counsellor were both doing colouring and talking about my anxiety because she could tell I was really uncomfortable with opening up but the colouring helped me to feel more comfortable and focused.

    @Dancer That sounds like it was a really beneficial route to go down for you today. How do you feel after your session?

    I felt proud that I have finally began getting support for my anxiety and that there is someone who actually understands. But sometimes it really is not easy although the school counsellor understands that. That's why she sorted out some colouring for me to do so I had some sort of distraction.

    @Dancer That's so wonderful to hear! You should be so proud of yourself, you're doing incredible by engaging with this support. I understand completely that this can be so difficult, so it's really great to hear that you've got a counsellor who listens and understands, and makes adjustments in a way that makes it easier and more comfortable for you, particularly as it can be really difficult to open up about these things. I'm really pleased to hear how well it went for you today!

    Anyone know any good places to buy really cheap books, the library doesn’t have any books that I really want to read. I’m going to go scout round some charity shops at the weekend, but I was really hoping the library would do some

    @Dandelion what kind of books are you looking for? Also ever since you told me about Wordle I've been doing them, have you done the most recent one? I've put my working in the spoiler section

    I quite often get books from the works - it is usually reasonable prices there
