Kia & Adam

[Ariane Chan]

This is more to Kia, who knows what I'm actually talking about more, heh, but Adam, I do tell you my uni progress, and well... I got rejected from Durham.

Basically, Adam, one of my university choices (the hardest one of my five) rejected me.

The good thing is the waiting's over. I also don't care tooo much. Like, I expected it, and I have another offer from another place I'd like to go to anyway. I am pretty disappointed, though, and... hm. It's not exactly put me in an elated mood, heh.

Never mind. I'm just waiting on one more now. I hope Warwick gives me an offer! *crosses fingers and huggles you both* Thanks for both your support too, guys. :) I know you're behind me all the way.

Hmph. They don’t know what they’re missing out on. Who wouldn’t want a Viv running around the campus, spreading cheer and the love of gay relationships? Some people are just plain foolish.

But in slightly more seriousness (because I was completely serious about you skipping around the campus), at least it wasn’t your preferred choice though, right? And you can look forward to getting a reply from Warwick – I hope you know exactly what is in my mind because you mentioned that word, Vivien *grumbles* Warwick is an evil word. It has to be. No other word can make me giggle so quickly and for such a small reason. It obviously has special powers.

When are you expecting the reply from Warwick? I’ll have to remember to send you a rabbit’s foot (or maybe not, because that’s just a hard thing to send through the mail) or a four-leaf clover or whatever other things are meant to bring luck. I can send you a mirror and you can try hard to not break it! That’s definitely gotta be lucky. If breaking mirrors is bad luck then not breaking them has to be good luck. It's only logical.

*bursts out laughing*

I can always rely on you to put a smile on your face with your amazingness. ;D

Exactly. >D I am da best. Yup. (Can't even spell/write/speak proper English, lool.)

Well, it was one of my top three - Durham, Warwick and York. It was also the hardest to get into 'cause it's the top uni in Britain for my course. I expected it, like I said. In a way, in terms of prestige it was definitely my top choice, but my heart is more inclined towards Warwick and York anyway.

I'm so glad I didn't visit Durham before. I may have fallen in love with it and then... yeah. ^^;;

Hahaha, sorryyy~ I will get back to Warwick and co. sometime soon... WW seems to have disappeared from my mind, sadly. I noticed Tierney and co. making an appearance, though! ;D yay!

I have no idea. Hopefully soon... But again, I don't want to put my hopes up too high. Unlike Durham, I may truly be blown down if they reject me. ^^;; No. I can't think about it too much. And I won't. I'm very good at that, heh.

Why thank you. :) I appreciate the thought of four-leaved clovers and mirrors in the post. I have a feeling, though, sending a mirror would easily give me bad luck. After all, it'd probably smash when coming through my letterbox. xD

[Lynne Collins]

You certainly are the best. Would I marry anything less? I have high standards, y'know. (No, that's such a lie. Standards very rarely concern me. That would require me using my head for once.)

I've been to Durham, the place, not the university itself. I disliked it greatly. Oh yes. Admittedly, that was mostly because we were there on a rush visit to get my passport updated because it expired the day before we were going on holiday. We waited seven hours and then nearly got sent back to Liverpool without being seen to! Ooh, my mum is hilarious when she's furious though. I've never seen a 6 foot man cower before a tiny woman before XD I wish I had that power. Anyway, Durham is busy and bustling and crowded and it had litter everywhere. And no cats in sight! No one can survive there.

Eh, don't worry about it. Karalynn and co subside quite willingly. Ah, yes. I do so love my Ouroboros characters. Jason has wormed himself in there because he wants to hate Marcus so he's entertaining me with plans of killing him.

...I shall send you a picture of a mirror. That seems a lot more practical. And less breakable.

[Ariane Chan]

Lol. I'd like to believe you do have standards. You would never marry a man with no morals. You do have standards and I admire that about you. Therefore, I must admire your choice in me. ;D

Ah. I've never been. Sounds like an awful place. :D

Your what characters?! xDD;;

Lol. Okay. I will receive your picture of a mirror quite happily. ;D

[Lynne Collins]

Mmhmm. Explain Jake then. You might be up to the highest standards but I'm almost certain that, to objective eyes, he's not.

It is. It's terrible. No cats!

Ouroboros, dear. It's a snake biting its own tail to symbolise something that has no discernable beginning or end. Considering how long their troubles have dragged out (from seven to nineteen years old), it seems quite apt because it seems like it'll never end, especially for poor Tier.

[Drake Manning]

Awwww, Viv, Kia is right. THEY are missing out. Not you. I am sure that it will all work out in the end. I hope that you get a better response from Warwick. *hugs*

[Ariane Chan]

@kia: Lol... They don't need to have high standards of physical beauty - just inner beauty. ^^ And I'm sure Jake is a good person. You wouldn't like him if he wasn't.

Aaah. I see. It sounds very fitting. ;)

Professor Adam Greene: Haha, thanks. So do I. ><

[Ariane Chan]

So. I got the results back from the exams I sat in January and...

Bad news: I got a U in that dodgy Psychology module. Yes. A U. I do not lie. Lol.

Good news: I got full marks in one of my English re-sits. :D Did not expect that at all, so I'm delighted. This means I officially have an A overall for my English AS. Which is great.

The Psychology, I will re-sit in June and by my calculations, overall I'll still get an A, which is perfect. :)

The other English module I hit the B mark, which... well, I'm not so bothered. General Studies went well, lol. Pointless subject anyway, but I got full marks in one module and pretty high marks in the other two. :)

Overall, it wasn't a disaster. Minus the Psychology, of course, haha. I've never got a U in my life so heh.
