"For One Night Only"

Today, we were sat idly in the theatre awaiting our lecture, and the tutor comes in and announces that the closing date for UCAS applications is the eleventh.

I recall the F-Word being the first thing that came to mind followed by an actual shouting of, "I thought it was the fifteenth..."

Evidently not - the eleventh - and another tutor says I've only got three days inwhich to do it. So I head up to the open-access ICT suite and get cracking with the help of my friend Danielle who'd already started her's. She got me started and I've successfully completed the section about myself - that's right, I've completed the easiest bit.

Still at it, right now, at home... No clues as to which university is for me, no idea what my last boss' name was, not knowing what chance I have of even succeeding. Deadline or not, a rude ICT staff member approached me earlier today and said, "Well, you've no chance of getting into university at this rate." Cheers for that - you really boosted my confidence...

It's your own fault for leaving it so late.
My application was sent off in October.

Mine was sent well before Chrimbo but it was left in the school office so it didn't get sent until a week before it was due in!

I got 6 acceptances though, including a rather odd AAB from City University. Considering I got predicted grades of like UUU it was quite nice!

I have 3 offers so far.
My predicted grades are the same as my AS grades.

Either way, I'm a good student, I try my best. My group tutor says she'll be disappointed to see me not go to university. I wish now that I hadn't spent ages saying that I wasn't going to go...

I'd have thought you'd be going to a drama specialist uni to further your thespian career.

*Ignores sarcasm* - I told myself for ages that it wasn't for me. That I'd just get a full-time job, hope to get an agent, perhaps. Go exploring. Take time out to deside what I truly wanted...

Fool.

You still have a couple of days.
That's enough time.

Go do something instead of musing on what could have been.

Over the years I've become very jaded after many bad experiences with customer services, you have bucked the trend. Polite and efficient from the Freeola team, well done to all involved.

Brilliant! As usual the careful and intuitive production that Freeola puts into everything it sets out to do. I am delighted.
