I just called dorothy perkins customer service. They are useless. It went a little like this

Me: Hi, I'm trying to place an order on the Dorothy Perkins website but my student discount isn't registering, and neither is the free delivery for £40 orders offer
Her: Do you have an NUS Extra card?
Me: It doesn't say anything about NUS Extra on the website, it says student ID and when I put that in it says I qualify for student discount
Her: Well you don't.
Me: Ok, well never mind. The free delivery offer isn't applying either
Her: How much is your order?
Me: £42
Her: The free delivery is for £75 orders and over
Me: There's a big banner at the top of the website saying 'free delivery for orders over £40'
Her: I'll check
Her: The topshop website says free delivery for orders over £75
Me: ??? I'm not on the topshop website, I'm on the dorothy perkins website.
Her: The system says you're a topshop customer
Me: I don't know why it thinks that
Her: Well you'll have to put the order in and claim the money back through the refunds department then

Laura’s eventful sunday night

So my sandals rubbed a blister yesterday. I was all ‘eh, blister’ but by the evening the veins in my foot were turning odd colours and I could see my pulse in my toe. So I called the out of hours doctors and they said they’d call back within an hour (it took them 59 minutes) so after lots of rambling and second opinions with a friendly but not-that-helpful lady I have to go to hospital at 1am. So me and Alex wander out of my room, my housemate is still awake and he decides to wake up my other housemate (who has an exam on tuesday) to tell her to drive me to hospital. So I’m feeling like a massive bother to everybody (also the first housemate decided to come along for some reason) but housemate 2 drives us to the hospital and then the doctor said I have blood poisoning and give me drugs.

Also Alex has a job interview today and I have an exam tomorrow. And I can’t find my plasters so I have parcel-taped a cotton wool pad to my foot.

J: OH NO that’s horrible. Don’t feel like an imposition when you need to go to hospital though - I think that’s one of the times you’re allowed to be an imposition.

Living right next to the beach is totally awesome when the weather is this great

I am just haemorrhaging money

Since I finished my exams (2 weeks ago) I think I’ve spent more than in the 3 months previous to that put together.

I had to look at my bank balance through my fingers.

Giving up drinking. fo serious.

Just found a poem we wrote in German circa yr 9/10 (nb I’m not sure why the formatting has gone all weird but I didn’t do that. I think it adds something however)

Kommt ein Tag aufs Land

Die Brise rauschte in den Blättern

Es gibt einen ruhigen Wind

Die Kuhen Muhen in der Weide

Und ich höre ein fröhliches Kind

Die Vögel fliegen stark im Himmel

Sie landen und singen im Baum

Sie rattern und zwitschern und lachen

Es ist wie ein seltsamer Traum

Jetzt muss ich nicht nach Hause gehen

Also kann ich Tee trinken und etwas essen

Ich liebe die Töne in der Landschaft

Aber nächstes Mal muss ich nicht

warme kleidung vergessen…

(weil es kalt ist)

(wtf)

Guys

We need to go to Brighton. It’s amazing. I want to live there.

H: Possible location for the Roflerskatez weekend away?

J: defo, although it’s about as not-in-the-middle-of-all-of-us that you could get

Not even kidding, there has been a bird in my garden for the last few days that has LEARNED TO MEOW.

He’s all tweet tweet tweet chirp tweet MEOW.

I am worth 33 camels, 3 goats and 9 sheep »

H: I got 12 camels, 2 goats and 9 sheep, and I’m a bit upset about it.

J: I wouldn’t be too upset about it, the ideal woman is apparently a submissive waitress who’s a good girl but also has sex all the time
