Not a happy bunny today :(
My friend texted me today from back home and told me that one of my old teachers (who is now his teacher) used me as an example in his class today because I "didn't show much promise and still got into university". :(
I was quite upset when I got told that because :
a) I worked super hard to get into university and I got in on an unconditional (meaning it didn't matter the grades I got in my exams in my final year of school, I had already got into the university. Basically, its the best you can do)
b) He hasn't been my teacher in 3 years and I got a B when I was in his class so what would he know?!
c) He shouldn't be talking about (ex) pupils by name in such a manner.

He never particularly liked me but I never really had many major issues with the teacher in high school! He's a science teacher and I did fail one of my science exams but I left school with pretty solid grades.

Normally stuff like this doesn't bother me, and it shouldn't because the teacher is a horrible old man, but I was pretty upset! :( :( :(

Rant over! Hope your days are going well!
 
Id contact the school if I were you. Thats super unprofessional. It would have been different if he hadnt called you by name. But to refer to you by name without your permission? Thats unacceptable.
My mom works in the school and she said she'll speak to someone for me since I'm not a home!
I've just found out I was in a list of a couple of pupils he used so at least he wasn't completely singling me out
 
I really really really wanted to do London but my school doesnt have a direct program there so it would cost about 20k for a semester not including spending money, flights, etc. They have one in Hull, England however that I would pay my schools tuition and then just pay room and board to the other school. And this way I would still get my financial aid so it wouldnt be too much more a semester.
Do they have a direct programme with anywhere else in the UK? If you need any advice let me know, I'm a high school teacher and counsel students on their uni decisions.

The only two are University of Hull or Aberystwyth University.

While I don't know anything about Hull (although I guess my hometown isn't too far away) or Aberystwyth specifically, if you want to know anything about living in the UK or how UK unis work then send me a message! I'd be glad to help :)

I remember awhile ago when someone brought up that the new version of iTunes aparently deleted all the songs you didn't buy. Is that true? My phone needs iTunes 11 now that I've updated it to iOS7 and I don't want to lose all my music!

I didn't lose any! I still had all my cheer mixes and all the other songs from CDs and stuff in my library when I updated. My phone, and I guess my iTunes library too, had ALL the music that had ever been purchased on my iTunes because of the iCloud thing. But you can just uncheck it to not show up if you don't want that to happen. I was really confused when I was listening to music this morning and didn't remember adding any of those songs to my phone. But you should be fine!

Also, I saw your earlier posts about your parents updating to ios7. My mom texted me so much during my accounting because she accidentally checked to receive iMessages from my number, my dad's, and my little sister's? Idk why that happens, but it happens EVERY TIME there's a new iPhone update. And then she couldn't figure it out and didn't even know that she had updated to ios7? Not sure who let her get an iPhone because she cannot figure any technology out lol.

Oh awesome! Then I guess I'll download it now! Hahah oh parents!That's so funny. My parent's haven't called or texted me about it so I'm not even sure that they know there is something new out.

I went to University in Wales so I'm biased and will say that if its not Cardiff, its not worth it :p Hull is a great uni and I think being in the north of England opposed to London will be great for you cause you'll get to experience British culture outside of London, which unfortunately a lot of people think is the be all and end all of the UK (btw I'm a born and bred Londoner and adore it but realise that some people both from here and abroad don't get the chance to see the rest of the country) hope this helps!

So basically, I'm trying to exercise and eat healthier more. But, I'm in college, have a job, and am exhausted whenever I get home so I never want to cook. Plus I can't really cook. Does anybody have any tips on healthy snacks or easy to make healthy lunches or dinners? I have pretty big breaks between my classes, two-three hours, and I usually go to the library to do homework, but I'm gonna start going to the rec on campus and working out/doing homework so any tips on snacks I could bring that won't go bad? Sorry this is kinda jumbled, but I'm just trying to move towards a more active and healthier lifestyle and any advice or tips would be appreciated! :)

I'm in the same boat pretty much. Full time course load of classes and working equals one tired kid who doesn't feel like cooking at the end of the day. I'm trying to eat healthier too, which I'm actually finding easier than I thought it would be. Basically when I go grocery shopping, I tell myself don't buy a lot of processed food and carbs, stick to meat and fresh veggies and fruit. For lunches I like to take deli meat, cheese and mustard, roll it up like a fruit roll up, and eat it that way with some vegetables. Usually keeps me full for at least 5 hours. For dinners, I like to cook chicken or fish with a side of veggies. It's so easy to cook both those things, I bet you could do it. Plus it's a super fast meal when you're short on time.

Another thing to think about is substituting healthier options for less healthier options. Like instead of making tuna with mayo, you can use mustard. Or instead of eating ice cream when you're stress eating, get a smoothie or chocolate covered pretzels or apple slices with caramel dip.

It's hard to cut out a lot of your favorite junk foods, but over time it gets easier!
