No snaps after all

According to the awesome staff at the exam registration office, they'll send the corrected title to my address ASAP. The person in charge of the registration phoned me soon after writing the mail - before I had seen his response, in fact, asked what the right title was going to be and apologised for the mistake.

Whoever copied the title can't know a lot about English literature or thought the title was intentional - and the mistake arose because, as he put it, "your examiner has beautiful handwriting, but sadly, it's not legible to anyone". They're going to change it now even though, as he said, he would have been more interested in a paper about snaps.

It's strange, because whenever I discussed signing up with other prospective teachers they kept telling horror stories on how unhelpful and unfriendly this particular person is supposed to be, but I have never experienced him anything other than very kind and extremely helpful. I also know that he is not a teacher nor, in fact, ever studied, so I can imagine him getting a lot of crap from students who think that they are superior to him, as it is not likely that anyone can have that many bad days. Huh.

Cool. I'm working part-time (as I am doing at the moment) over the summer but so far have nothing else on. Mum wants me to come to HH but I'm not sure....

If you want to concentrate on your finals that would be perfectly understandable.

I want to, and I don't think I can do anything else as I am not sure when the exams will be. We only find out two weeks in advance, so it'd be hard to book anything.

What are you working as?
