Hi 'Pierce,'

I am a journalist (and student) researching a magazine article on the 'No Fap' movement and was looking for the UK 'wing' of this Reddit-originated trend. Just wondering if you might be able to help point me in the right direction and/or if you would be willing to chat with me for the story (albeit anonymously if you wish of course).

Cheers, Yves

Hello buddy! Just want to say thank you very much for standing in for me with India in the MUN for such a long time, you effectively should have won the election against me way back when as you've represented them better than I ever did, but I do intend to rectify that now and represent based on my mandate. So cheers, and I am indebted to you in terms of infinite rep points (whenever TSR will allow), I will represent India permanently from here on in, thanks again!

I started with the IAEA because there weren't any countries I liked, and I found them quite interesting (being a physicist and all). Then Australia came up, so I got that as well, since just being a UNO was quite limited (no resolutions, no political comments). What about you?

Haha, thanks. Yes, I think Switzerland is like the lone wolf country... It kind of sits on the sidelines, but is at the same time at the centre of most major international organisations...

Thanks

Definitely. Especially if you're doing a BA. The strength as well as weakness of BAs is that they can be applied to a wider breadth of careers, if less specifically to anything as BSc. Although I would advise doing work experience in two or three possible areas you'll go into just to have something under your sleeve when you graduate. I'm just worried I'll commit myself to law and then have a change of heart! Here's hoping not.

Don't worry about not knowing what you want to do yet - I'm wary of knowing already what I want to do so early. I do want to be a barrister - how did you guess Haha - shows how career choices can change. Who knows - perhaps I'll end up doing something totally different in the end! Conversion course will be costly...probably stick with it, though.

Well done on Kent - my mum went there (laws). I want to re-apply to UCL to be in London and because their English course is far more to my tastes both content-wise and in how it's assessed (Bristol is mostly coursework, UCL mostly written exams). Bristol asked for A*AA-AAA in 2013; now it's straight A*AA, with UCL still at AAA, despite the latter being more highly regarded. Oxford is AAA, too.

You any idea what you want to do career-wise?

Ah thanks - I was a bit miffed to be just off the * in History, but there we are. I'm on a gap year right now but firming Bristol, hopefully becoming UCL for 2014 (re-applying). Where's your brother, and have you got any choices in mind?

Not there yet, but going this autumn to read English. You're doing the exact same A-Levels as I did! Snap. I've only found one other person on TSR doing HEP. You know what you're going to be doing at uni, if anything?
