The Official 2017 Cambridge Applicants Thread [part 3]

I'm a hot chocolate snob. I judge a restaurants hot chocolate and if it's bad, I spend the whole meal complaining about hot chocolate prejudice which is a real thing.
If you order a hot chocolate, normally it takes long than a coffee despite being easier to make. Some restaurants offer coffee but not hot chocolate??? Plus hot chocolates are more expensive for no reason. AND THEY'RE SERVED IMPROPERLY - hot chocolate should be served in a cup, not a glass. This is hot chocolate prejudice and it's plaguing our society.

Just read the d-day posts from last year...

HAHHAAHAHAHHA why am I still following this thread when 80% of interviewees get rejected?!? As if I would even be in the top 20% apparently black-British rarely get in...

What are the chances of me being in the 1% of the top 20%? HAHAHA

Bye bye genius' and future Cambridge students 👋🏾

I'm not a weirdo Ruthie, I'm not going to be that posh, I'm posh enough already without using a knife and fork for pizza! I use a fork for dough balls already...

I've never had Turkish food! I don't dislike meat, unless it's a huge chunk of red meat...which is gross.

Scampi is baeeeee but white bait is better lbr

No, except the size

Finally finished drawing and here it go
This is me in TSR before and after

oh my god this reminded me of the best hot chocolate I ever had at a little Cafe in London that put nutella into it and it all melted and it was absolutely divine.... Haven't had hot chocolate since because I know it just won't compare

I can't rep you but assume I did!!!

Also it's official I'm not watching Sherlock live I hate myself

what if cambridge told you they'd give you an unconditional offer would you it it then hmm??



you could always eat it with a knife and fork i guess!



I've never really tried Japanese or Vietnamese food so I can't comment on it! Have you ever had Turkish food? all time favourite it's so nice (although if you're not a fan of meat steer clear )

my favourite food is probably scampi - i love it so much!

is there a difference between profiteroles and éclaires or not?

Ooh nice, what makes for a good hot chocolate? Where is your favourite hot chocolate from?

You won't be rejected because of your skin colour

Oh my god your artwork is amazing hahahah

So kawaiii~

Pizza snob here as well *high five*
And as a fellow pizza snob you'll have to comment how "this is real pizza" and how dominoes is the corrupted American version, while eating at the pizzeria.

I'LL TELL YOU WHO - EVERY RESTAURANT EVER. IT'S A CRIME AND A SCANDAL, IT'S AWFUL. PIZZA EXPRESS CHANGED FROM A CUP TO A GLASS, COSTA PUT COFFEES IN CUPS AND HOT CHOCOLATES IN GLASSES.

It's a real issue for me, I live in a world where I love hot chocolate but no one makes it right???

I'd say it's acceptable to use a knife to make sure the slices are properly seperated in pizza

I like japanese food and like asian fusion but I'm so bad at using chopsticks that it's just embarrassing

Ok, right. This is where my knowledge shows. If Cambridge had a hot chocolate course, I'd be top pupil

Costa has the best hot chocolate but you need to do it right. First, you should get a medium take away hot chocolate (orange syrup optional near Christmas - it's yum). Make sure to get cream, but not marshmallows, as marshmallows clog up the lid with the goo and ruin it. NOW, here comes the complicated part. With a take away cup, due to physics, the whipped cream slowly makes it way down to the bottom of the cup. This is a good thing UNLESS you time it wrong. You can't drink your hot chocolate too fast or the cream will be too solid to drink. If you drink to slow, your cream will melt. So you need to drink it at different speeds at different times of the year (the cream lasts longer in the winter). I find, in the winter, around now, you should drink your hot chocolate in the speed it takes to listen to 1-2 songs, or your cream will be ruined. This is why you get a medium - larges mean the cream melt, smalls mean it's too thick. In the summer, you must be quick drinking it, as the cream doesn't last as long, so it takes more like one song to drink.

I loooove baklava 👌👌👌👌 (I think thats turkish, right?) Might buy myself some for thursday....
