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...

20!!

UCAS gives you 6.
The hardest thing to do is the Personal Statement nonsense.

Your last boss's name? Bit about yourself?

All we do here is fill in our 20 choices, send it to the CAO with our student number, and come August you get offered the highest choice you qualified for and you either take it or leave it, and thats it.

Oh, you have to go or you'll miss the best time of your life.

Just choose a sh*tty course that is useless. It's a degree at the end of the day which will look good (no matter what it's in) plus you'll make loads of new friends and 'stuff'.

Halls are the best!

"I've successfully completed the section about myself"

"I'm an actor, dontcha know. I've gone to school for a bit. And oh, did I tell you I'm an actor? I did a play not too long ago about bullying. Critically acclaimed you know. I'm a bit of an idiot really. But I'm an actor by the way. Did a play about bullying. It actually kinda fell to pieces around me because people hurt themselves and that. But I kept strong and kept it all together. I think it's cause I'm an actor y'know. I did a school play not that long ago too. It was about bullying."
