New haircut, new wardrobe, am ready to be a student again now!!!!

[puff]

Got my hair cut back into a bob - haven't had one for about 7 years. Really pleased with it and wow, it's so much easier to style.

Also found lots of great clothes in "Fat Face" which I am happy to wear now I no longer actually have a fat face !

I don't usually like their stuff, but found lots of lovely stuff in there yesterday - just right for the mature student who needs to look trendy without the mutton/lamb analogy.

well done you. Good luck

lol

I had a bit of a spend too Puff.
When are you starting?
I am registering tomorrow.

(Are you target weight yet? God,you must feel soooooooo great!)

Thanks daisy, I lost a lot of confidence in myself when I put on a great deal of weight a few years ago (in the wake of a very difficult bereavement), so this feels like a fresh new start and putting the past behind me at last .

Enrolment is tomorrow moondog - dh says he expects me to fully partake of Fresher's Week lol!

My thoughts too Puff.Who knows,come tomorrow,I may be drinking cider and black out of plastic pint pots,smoking rollies and stamping along to 'Hi Ho silver lining' before copping off with a wood scientist....................

Um, I'm keeping the specifics of it quiet cos it's v specialised and I'm a bit worried someone might guess who I am !

But it's something I've wanted to do for years. Hoping to end up working in one of the big London museums, with some travel abroad thrown in to work on specific projects.

Thanks Fio.

Lol moondog .

BRILLIANT, it sounds like you are more than ready for your next big adventure in life.
Keep your chin up, and above all be proud of yourself.

gawd, I am welling up because you are all being so lovely . I heart mumsnet .

md, I'm not target weight yet - can't shift this last stone, but hoping it will come off because I'll be sooooooooooo busy and of course ignoring the handmade pasty shop I pass when I change trains in the morning!
