    oooh, uni apps. Just remember that it's going to suck sometimes, but that at the end it's going to be worth it and okay. It's not about the school, but about what you do once you get into a school.

    You're gonna be awesome.

    Also I have a story called Kissed that you could check out.

    Yeah! I like when we get snow, although it's very very cold and I hate the cold. XD

    I know right?!? I could understand if exams weren't just to record how much information you could retain, but unfortunately that's what our education system thinks is intelligents which is complete rubbish.

    I know, when is it our turn to get enough snow for snow days?? I am sick of cold rain and wind ahaha
    Good luck with that, I'm glad I helped :D

    Exactly, exams dont determine if you're good at the subject or intelligent, they determine if you're good at exams. I hate the education system so much D: D:

    Bloody British weather. Grr

    Let's just say that it's still being written...and due in for tomorrow. Facepalm I procrastinate so much but it'll be done, and I'll be in so much thanks to you when I do it.
    Exactly! The grades we get are just a reflection of how much information we can retain at one time, not proper work skills or life skills, so even if you don't get an A or B, it doesn't mean that you're stupid or a bad person/bad future worker, it just means that you didn't satisfy the requirement amount of information to retain, which is bullshit anyway.

    @ dyke
    yeah he's got offers back from all his other choices, including Durham but still Oxford was his top choice he really wanted to go there D: Oh well other places will be less stress/more fun most likely.

    Its hard to be patient when it's your future on the line :') I'm tryiing D:
    Yay I'm glad you like :D

    Ooh okay I'll definitely have a look! :D

    @ castiel's vessel
    Damn weather never does what you want it to

    If you're predicted it you never know! :) How'd your coursework plan go, by the way? :)
    I hope so, but I just have to keep telling myself that grades dont define anyone as a person, and not getting into Durham isn't the end of the world. Better it to be a happy surprise if I get in than a huge disappointment if I don't I guess :)

    Completely. It's like, why can't you be rainy and cold when they're supposed to be working instead of right now??

    I'm predicted one A but I know I won't get that which is okay because I don't need the A to get into my course. lmfao I think I'm predicted two Bs in my other subjects but I think maybe my Art History teacher is predicting me to get a B (but put down as a C to be safe) because she keeps hinting at me being "capable of B work" which I know is false. XD You'll get your grades! I believe in you, Rosie! And sometimes courses let you in with two As and B, so maybe they'd make that exception for you if you somehow got one B. :)

    Same, but I guess they're looking for more than intelligence :/
    Thanks! :3
    Awesome I'll have a look when I get a chance :)

    I'm sorry about your boyfriend and friend not getting accepted. That sucks. :( Especially since you said your boyfriend is really smart, I don't see why he wouldn't get in.

    Your story idea sounds interesting. :)

    You can check out any of my drabbles which are all under 500 words with the majority being between 100-300 words. I like "Icarus" and "Hopeless Seduction" the most...I think. I'm also fond of "Broken", "You Don't Know This", and "No Hard Feelings". Oh, and I also like "Balcony" a lot which I'm going to revise...sometime.

    Here's my collection to make it easy(ier) for you.

    I know right?? Why couldn't the wind have been as bad it's been for the past holiday? :#
    I hope she got in. It was either Cambridge or Imperial/Kings Cross college for her - although she applied for Bangor as her "last" option because if she didn't get into any of the good ones, might as well stay close to home, right? lmfao

    What were the grade requirements for Durham? I'm sure you'll get them! I know for sure (that sounds really big-headed Facepalm) that I'm going to get the requirements for Trinity Saint David and be going there in September. :)

    (unless, y'know, i sit absolutely none of my exams and don't even do my coursework)

    Damn those construction workers :(
    Cambridge people heard last week I think so she should know :)

    Hopefully :) I'm just trying to be realistic, plus I have other options if they don't give me an offer I guess c:

    My friend applied for Cambridge and I don't know whether she's got in yet. Maybe I'll find out tomorrow when we go back to school because unfortunately, they fixed the roof. Sad

    Aw, Rosie, you'll get into Durham! I believe in you. Clap
