(no subject)

It is officially; 65825, 65824, 65823, 65822, 658421, 65820 seconds till i finish for this year. At 9.50am, i shall be a rather happy bunny :)

Today i got an email through from the University of Hertfordshire, about scholarships. The title of the section that caught my eye was

"£3,000 a year with the Chancellor's Entrepreneurial Excellence Scholarship 
This award is designed to support students with brilliant business ideas. As well as the cash, you'll also enjoy expert help and advice to develop your business proposal."

Wow i thought, this years been really quite a toughy (its quite a long, but not that complicated story), and so i thought maybe, just maybe, this might be a bit of encouragement. For anyone who dosen't know, i run a small business selling souveneirs of the local town. www.maldonmousemats.co.uk if anyones interested, it needs updating alot, but you can see the picture that i use, currently i have mousemats, coasters, fridge magnets and key rings. Anyway, i got a little bit excited about the whole scholarship thing, and the email reads on

"You'll need a great idea...."

but apparently it was a little bit premature...as the email reads on...

"and 360 UCAS points to apply."

and theres the catch, i've been pretty ill this year and so 360 UCAS points (3 A's) is very much out of the question. And anyway, whats a good business idea got to do with having 3 A's? Stupid thing. 

End of rant. 

I'm watching Casino Royale in bed right now, i'm a little bit addicted to James Bond right now, i've watched the ones we have at home, plus i'm playing alot (someone say to much) of 007 Nightfire on my playstation. Oh and theres another James Bond game on my christmas list. Woop.

Have a good christmas all!!
