Ahh!! An update!! o.o;
Mar. 7th, 2006 08:00 pmYep yep.
Well, for those who don't already know, I managed to pull off a miracle and get accepted back at college ^^; So it looks like Uni is still a possibility, thanks to my VERY understanding course tutors. And tomorrow, I'm visiting UEL (University of East London). I also have an interview at UCLAN (University of Central Lancashire), but it collided with the Open Day at UEL, plus UCLAN is 5 hours away by train, so I'd have to leave at like 5am, and it'd cost me over £100 for the journey ^^; So I emailed them, asking if it was possible to come for interview on another day, later on in the day. It'd be a looooong way from home, if I went there... I certainly couldn't come back at weekends or anything. It's literally the diagonal length/width of England away. And yeah, it'd probably be good for me to be a bit away from hom ^^; But I'm scaaaaared! UEL is closer... only an hour and a half away, in Essex. It's actually kinda near where my grandparents lived before they passed away. Only not quite as far. Still have to go up through Dartford Tunnel, I think. It's in Dagenham... not the most interesting place, sadly ^^; UCLAN is in a much more lively and fascinating city (it's in Preston, up near Liverpool/Blackpool etc)... buuut... if the UEL campus is nice, I guess that's all that really matters, since I'll be near enough to come home on some weekends and on holidays n.n
I have my new computer o.o But I haven't hooked it up yet. I'm afraaaaid to ^^;; What if I can't get the wireless router to work on it? NO INTERNET!! ;_; ::Gasp:: My life would not be worth living :P ::Hugs teh intarnetz:: ... heh... ^^; Well, I gotta get my room all cleaned up first anyway... and finish transferring all my stuff onto my two 20GB MP3 players (finally, a use for my spare one! XD)... sooo... there's stuffs to be done ^^ Just gotta do it >.>
I made a little button for Sontails.com :P
::Pokes it:: Yay button!! n.n
I'm gonna get me a Fanfiction.net account and start writing again. Writing that little Sontails drabble for
sonic_couples was fun, and made me want to write more ^^ I need to seriously start writing an actual fic. A full-length one. I have lots of ideas, I'm just not good at stringing them together ;_; But I'm a writer, and I should write, 'cause that's what writers do, right? Write! Uh... right. XD ::Fall::
In other news... um... I got a subscription to the new Official Nintendo Magazine ^^ I get a free game (out of a choice of 3) with it. I chose Donkey Konga :P Whee. My mom offered to pay for half of the subscription cost, since I'm studying video game design and all... but I'd rather pay for it all myself ^^; It's hardly research material! So yeah. Nintendo magazine. Yay!
Uh... guess that's it ^^; See ya guys later!
PS: Lamees, I'm blaming YOU for getting me addicted to the OS-tan comics! :PPP
