I’ve been ID’d
Yippy! I picked up my student ID card today and am officially able to get student discounts now. Yay!! Though, funnily, the only student discount I’ve gotten so far was for my bus fare on the way to campus. I stepped aboard and asked if it was the bus to campus and was kindly told it was and asked if I had my student ID – to which I said no, as I was on my way to pick it up. But the nice man gave me the 50p discount anyhow. (So trusting!) And I thought it was pretty cool that he thought I looked like I could be a student.
So that’s the other cool thing about today: At 37 years old, I am finally holding a student ID card proclaiming me as a postgraduate student. Yay!
I’m back on campus on Monday to meet with my programme director and to register for my course modules. Then I’m back on Tuesday for a couple of orientation meetings. Then I think I’ll start attending classes later in the week. But I don’t know when…
Oh, and if you’re looking at the photo thinking “Wow! What an awesome student ID photo!”, you should know it’s been edited for my own amusement because that’s how I roll!
it looks waaaaaaaaay nicer than my current student ID – shiny forehead/caught in the headlights, oh my! still – it gets me the discounts and gets me my transit pass 🙂
Nice! Hope your first week went well! I know you must be super excited to be back in the classroom 🙂 Hope your Flat finding is going well also…
