flyboy_fox... okay. I admit it. I'm finally starting to get a liiittle annoyed by Arisu XP Don't any of you say a thing! I'm not gonna blow up about it here, 'cause... yeah. We know what kinda grief that sorta thing causes. Well, if she wants to accuse me of treating her unfairly, fine x.x I defended her more than I wanted to, and now I've got ill-feeling from both sides. So much for being diplomatic XD Sometimes there's just no way to win 9_9
Aaanyway, that aside... I've got more problems ;_; I found another University up north... the University of Teesside. It does an AWESOME Games Design course, complete with a year's placement at a company such as Rare, Dreamworks, or IBM. It's also internationally recognised for excellence in its games design, games art, and games science courses, uses industry-standard software and hardware throughout the course, and the school hosts the Animex games and animation festival, one of the UK's largest games and animation expos. Sounds too good to be true, huh? Well... it probably is :\ I already applied to six schools via UCAS. I can't apply for another or change my preferences. The ONLY way to apply for this one is if I cancel my ENTIRE application, which means rejecting ALL the offers I've had so far, and then apply for this one via UCAS Extra, which is their clearance procedure. It would be a huge risk, because the entry standards are much higher on this course (220 - 280 tariff points as opposed to 160 for, say, UEL), and if I don't get in... well... I'd have no other schools to fall back on and I'd have to wait another whole year to apply through UCAS again x.x Soooo... I don't know what to do ^^; If it was closer, I'd just visit it... but... it's about 300 miles away x.x It's in Middlesbrough. Which is waaaaay up north, near Carlisle XD So... this is gonna need some heavy thought. Why is University stuff so complex?! >P
Gah, the thunderstorm is back ^^; Curse you, British weather! (It's providing adequate mood-music XD)
