It's been FOREVER

i feel like i haven't posted here in years. although it was only a few weeks ago.......

Anyways, a lot has gone on since then.

I went for the FYP award thing which was cool. Met some amazing people. Have also tried to do loads of schoolwork (although some with fail...gosh, i really should get writing a certain politics essay that was due some several ages ago). I'm on half term now, which is a great plus, and my friends cane down from manchester to stay with me for the weekend which was amazing as well!

Finished my UCAS form and sent it all off.

YESTERDAY I GOT MY FIRST OFFER- from York for PPE, Conditional AAB. Rather exciting!

This part of the UCAS process can be nerve-wracking, but it's fun all the same :)

Travel Woes

I spent two days....two days!!!....just getting from my house back to Cheltenham last weekend. I don't have ages to put in all the details but basically it was one horrible journey, i tell you. To be honest, after getting my oyster card lost and far too many other disappointments on the first day, I went back home. Thank God for my lovely sister who was there. So i went back to school late, left on Monday morning, and then I was stranded at Swindon for FOUR hours!!!!! At first, for a while, I was sat on a coach- and then, alas, the broken down coach was towed away, and I was standing in the freezing cold! I didn't get to school till evening. I should have got a refund.

And then when I got back to school I heard that this girl I was supposed to give a seminar with was mad at me. I've apologised to her, tried to reconcile, I've done my bit, and whatever she does with hers is not exactly my concern.

Basically, it was a horrible series of unfortunate event.

((But I've got over it now and I'm in London again for the weekend with my mum and another sister. yippee!!!))
