Out of My Hands

The moment I released this package into the postbox I was able to breathe a sigh of relief. It was now the responsibly of the Postal service to look after it, so I would no longer have a minor freak out every time I didn't instantly see it in my bag or continuously worry about spilling one of my 15 daily cups of tea on it rendering it both soggy and useless.
Of course these forms didn't come without difficulty, the main one being the closing date for applications is the 15th of June. Applications of course having to include a copy of my Transcripts which would you believe are not released until June 25th! I love when life is easy, don't you? However this was easily rectified. The lovely helpful people at the Registrations office were only delighted to help and I left the office with a letter explaining Transcripts would follow on ASAP and €20 less well off (I forgot to mention these Transcripts also cost!)
So as it stands at the moment the forms are somewhere between Ireland and Germany. I've paid €800 to a place I've never even seen (Housing Deposit and September Course Deposit) and I've no idea when I'll be contacted about anything. All things considered though, I'm feeling pretty OK about it, well the administration side of it anyway.
