"Bloody UCAS"

Trying to fill my personal statement for uni in...It's just a pain.

It's not my fault I haven't done anything with my life. Kinda puts it all into perspective writing your achievements down on paper though...

Strangely worrying.

Any advice?

I would watch what uni you decide to go for. Going for the best one in the country is all well and good, but if you dont fit in with the people there, then you will feel very alone. I could have gone to edinburgh, but i heard it was full of snobs so i went to stirling instead. STIRLING ROCKS!

I want to go to Manchester, but it is very highly regarded and I may well not get in. If I can get 2 Bs and a C at full A level then they should give me an offer. I have had to work hard at my A levels, I am not particually intelligent but I really want to go to a good Uni. Most of my choices are high you see, but I don't see the point of putting a 'backup' uni to go to for if I come out with say 2 Cs and a D because I may as well try for the best uni possible. I could do the safe route but thats what I always do! DAMMIT, I'M GONNA TAKE A GAMBLE! And no one can stop me.
Sure I may not be A grade material or be taking an A level in Chemistry or Maths but I am going to go for it.

Failing that I will go through clearing.

And failing that I will go to Mogolia for a year and become a Buddist monk.

Failing that I will sit in my room until which point I die from dehydration.
Thanks for reading.

You scare me.

If you two meet, I want to see you get engaged and married

Just a thought

I meant better. Not between. How the hell did I make that typo?

I read that "engaged" first, and I got scared. Then I read the rest. So I felt between. Slightly.

If you two meet, I want to see you engage in mortal combat till one of you is dead...

Just a thought

Ah, Rakuga, we have two uni's in common. You might end up meeting me. Dwell on that thought.
