hello, long time no post.
a few things have happened, none really worth mentioning, but my life is still fairly bland/rubbish. have accepted my uni offers, firm is SOAS in london, insurance is goldsmiths in london. so looks like i should be going to london, if i can get in. hurrah. slightly scared about people at uni but basically nothing can be worse than plymouth at the moment, so i don't even care :)
it's all sunny outside, and my car is now fixed, and has new wheels and wingmirrors. it actually passed the MOT, couldn't quite believe it, but hey.
mneh, tooderloo x

Well I've had 3 offers from universities... Sheffield, Manchester and Oxford Brookes. Oxford Brookes is my top choice so that's what I'm going for. It also happens to have given me the lowest offer. So there's not much else to say other than YAYYY :)

universities i'm applying to:
-SOAS,
-goldsmiths,
-manchester,
-oxford brookes,
-sheffield,
-queen mary's college
exciting. anybody know much about any of those, though? i'm slightly scared. oxford brookes is my first choice, and i've heard oxford is a nice place. so that's good. unless anyone cares to differ. if anyone even reads this. hmm.
by the way, subjects are: japanese studies with film studies, japanese by itself, russian studies x2, russian with film studies, and european studies [not in order of unis]. i'm very scared! what if they all hate me?! *dies*

It's fucking shit!
I think I'm in love but it's unrequited. I did crap in my AS levels, and have to take on a subject i got an E in to A2... Also, need to be out of Plymouth about now, really, not a year's time. If I even get into uni.
ARGH!
Just read through some old posts and it inspired me to post a new one, but unfortunately my life has probably become even worse. So yay, not a very good post. Eep.

OK, so this is hard. I'm trying to pack all my stuff up, cause I'm moving out on friday. Oof. So far all I've done is pack my CDs, DVDs and books into three little crates and it's taken ages and I'm already knackered. Now I'm just being lazy and holding it off like I have all the time in the world, even though I know I don't, roobish. Basically my whole past is in this room and I can only take about 1/5 of it, and never see the rest again. Cleansing, perhaps, though I'm still a little dubious.
I'm excited about moving, but having to almost restart my life is a bit weird. It's probably for the best, growing up and minimalising my possessions, and stuff, but it makes the past look a bit worthless, like I guess it is. Ohhh, I don't know *ghey*

this past month, my life has gone absolutely haywire.
consequentially, i am moving out in the coming weeks.
i'm excited about it now, but not sure whether i can stand the weeks before moving out. i hope i can.
also hoping the government do give me enough money to pay rent. if not, i am on a one way journey to shit creek.
just thought i should update the livejournal, as i so often neglect it nowadays.
on a happier note, am still with boyfriend. that's five months now, pretty seminal for my standards.
blah blah...

well, after not updating my journal in a long time... livejournal changes completely for the first time in... well, ever...
*confused*
life is good now... thus making no need for livejournal.
well, a tiny need. i'm bored and this is *sort of* curing it.
college still rules, and my man is lovely.
i rewatched the edukators, it was not any worse at all watching it
again. bloody love that film. also watched saw 1 and 2. intriguing.
oooh... boring stuff =/
driving is going well. hurrah. don't have enough money to pay for any more lessons after these next 5 weeks, though. eep.
i'm seeing one of my favourite bands in february, too. FUCK YEAH.
=D
