Mum's Birthday + English Test

Good Evening~

Last night I found it hard to sleep, I was all excited for the morning
just cus it meant mum opening up her gifts
it was like waiting for christmas day as a child XD
is that sad?

So when we got up and had the pets sorted mum opened her stuff
She liked the hair dryer we got her, and is looking forward to having
her nails done. And the dressing gown went down well and she has agreed
to let me turn her old one into pet blankets.
Her friends got her a purse, handbag, candle.

After lunch I had an english test at 1pm
I was not looking forward to it but it couldnt be helped.
I arrived there and was called in with 10 other people 
Looking round there was a couple of older adults, a boy my age and the rest were
foreign. We had to write an A4 sheet on why we wanted to do the course
then we had to do a computer assessment of 32 questions to do with grammar, spelling, punctuation, that kinda thing.
I got 27 out of 32
Which I felt wasnt too bad, it then said I was at the same level I was at when i was at school!!
i didnt realize i was so bad 0.0
but looking round the room others were doing far worse

There were 2 members of staff going round the room
and I could hear them saying a few times "yep thats that class fully booked up now"
I was there thinking "is there gonna be any space for me to join!!?"
They were marking people's A4 writing too, crap I didnt know they'd mark it in front 
of you like a teacher ><

oh and a lady walked into the room and i recognized her and when she said her
name it confirmed who she was. she was my old tutor at a sewing course.
she had come for her english + maths. Small world huh
So after I did the computer assessment the lady came round to mark my A4 sheet
she picked it up, wrote my computer score then began reading. When she read it
she said to me;
"do you wanna come on a 3 day intensive crash course? Its 3 days for 5 hours
you do the days plus homework and then take the english test. And if you
happen to fail we can put you in class, by which time there should be spaces free"
I was very gobsmacked by this revelation, more so when she said the crash course
was for staff members of the college.
I thought that maybe she could see I was THAT bad at english and I could pass
this thing quick. I had nothing to lose as the classes were full, I dont need to pay
so its not the end of the world if i dont pass. so I agreed.
why am i always the one to be different?
i can not see myself passing in just 3 days...

I left and came home for a brew
then I was drawing, we went out to eat for mum's birthday
just to a pub down the road. I ate chicken and sweet potato chips
and had ice cream for pudding, pudding i didnt really want ><
i hope me head will be quiet tonight, i didnt eat that much really.

tomorrow I am going to make a birthday cake for mum
whilst she has her nails done
then were going out for a cafe lunch :)
