Really couldn’t be arsed with my first assignment for this unit, and ended up doing lots of stuff that had sod all to do with the assignment just because it was more interesting/fun. But I managed to get my assignment sorted and submitted it to my tutor on time (the deadline was today). My laptop should be re-delivered this week, hopefully fixed. They sent a loaner which is how I managed to get my assignment in on time (I saved all my work on my Stark sigil USB stick). On that note, I still need to send in my DSA forms for this year, and potentially also update them on my ADHD diagnosis in case that makes any difference.  Still need to book my visual stress test as well... assuming that it would still be covered by them (they sent me a leaflet basically telling me to go get one, so hopefully they’ll still fund it).

Just been reminded that I still need to send off my DSA forms for the new academic year. Ugh. Not another thing for the bloody list. I’m not sure whether I should just send them back saying everything is the same, or whether I should contact them to inform them that I’ve also been diagnosed with ADHD, and General Anxiety Disorder (I think that was already diagnosed actually) and Tourette’s. Not sure whether it’ll change much as I have access (sort of) to the things I need and can feasibly access (what with distance learning) so I’m not sure whether it’s worth bothering. 

- Email boss at 12.16pm yesterday. No reply... Not sure whether to resend it in case he didn’t receive it, although I have no reason to think he didn’t. It’s in my sent folder. - Still no email from MH team. Asked Watson to chase that up as I’d like to know what’s happening. - Need to renew car tax. - Still need to order Moziblox (DSA will reimburse me but putting the form in seems like a lot of work).

My equipment was delivered today. I got really anxious beforehand and have been feeling really ill which didn’t help. I didn’t like the idea of a stranger coming into my house, especially as they set up the equipment for you to make sure everything is working, and to show you that everything is there and so you can tick everything off and sign the delivery form. Laptop, carry case, keyboard and mouse, extra USB ports hub, fancy wireless printer, recording device, various cool software already on the laptop... There was no microphone (for the laptop, I believe) so he said that he’ll get that sent out. Watson had to come over to be here for the delivery and to act as interpreter if I couldn’t speak.  The guy was really nice, though. Watson said she liked how he spoke to me even though I was signing).  I still need to order my blocks, though, as those are from a different company, and I should probably book my visual stress test at some point.

Got my DSA letter.  Yay, free stuff!

Just remembered - still no news from DSA, even though they’ve already told Watson that they have approved my 2014/2015 application (basically verified that I started this year in July so am entitled to a free laptop because previously they had sent me everything I needed to get my equipment but under 2015/1016 application, so I’d have had to pay towards it).
