No current updates for the time being!

I'm a bit miffed, frankly. I received a letter from ebay's financiers, saying that I hadn't paid a debt of £30.15 and that they were demanding it as soon as possible. Now, I had a debt of about £25 a couple of weeks ago, but it's been paid off for at least a week now - and now they're seemingly demanding MORE money! I don't know how they came to the conclusion that I owed them so much, but I'm certainly ringing them up tomorrow to discuss this with them - I'm a student, I can't afford to give them large wads of money if I don't know why I have to, and I really hope they can either give me a pretty good explanation for this, or cancel the repayment and let me off. Otherwise, they're going to have to wait a while longer to get any more money from me, because I just don't have it.

College starts again on Tuesday. I still haven't done the first draft of my French coursework, which is tremendously stupid and cutting it very fine. I won't have time to do it today or tomorrow until the evening at least, so something tells me I'll be going to bed very late tomorrow night. I can't just turn up on the first day and say, "Oh, sorry! I just didn't do it!" I've made a start on it (I have all my research materials, at least) but I still need to write up the damn thing. I only have to write 500 words, so hopefully it won't take me too long. Not to mention, it's a draft... so it doesn't really matter at this stage if I make any mistakes. Luckily, I've done all my other holiday homework... although I probably should have read more of my library books than I actually have.

I'm off to Bristol for two days to see my good friend, lauren. She's moving into her new house for uni this weekend and will be on her own, so I've agreed to come and help her unpack her stuff and stay the first night so she won't be all by herself. I haven't seen lauren since we and Claire went to Rome together, so I'm really looking forward to seeing her again - we have so much to catch up on! From the prospective of a shopaholic such as myself, I've never been shopping or even visited Bristol before. On a geekier note, however, she now has Pokemon: Diamond Version so I can play my Pearl Version with her on our DS'... and also, Animal Crossing! I'll be back sometime on Monday night, so for now - adios!
