Though, having said all that : comments [pmsumner]

i have £2000 in a savings account

Ahh, good start. Having the time to save some cash is definitely an advantage when going to uni. Being 20 rather than 18, as I was, has to be a good thing, financially speaking at the very least.

i want the nice rooms with the tiny en suite bathrooms, i want a network connection

Hey, I had a great room and whilst it wasn't en-suite, it had a network connection (small problem with living 4 miles away with campus - it was a microwave link that would die whenever it rained extra-hard, not too often *smiles*). Point being that it was cheaper than all of the shitty rooms in central Manchester.

heh... well there are lots of different rooms which are all university halls, and i've studied the brochure now for two years running so i'm pretty familiar with all the pros and cons! i'd be quite happy to go this september, but i can't do that unless i go through clearing. and i don't want to go through clearing becasue i know where i want to go and stuff. so i'll be nearly 21 :( i expect i'll get a job between now and next september, although i do have studying to do which i find it hard enough to knuckle down to as it is, so i don't need another distraction until i get into some kind of routine. but i will have to get a job or i will go mad. i'm pleased that i have some money saved though.

Oddly enough, I find it easier to study when I have a job. It forces structure into your day, meaning if you want to get ahead you have to organise your life, which is a large portion of figuring out studying gone without even thinking about it.
