I've literally changed my options/courses at least 3 times so don't be surprised if I somehow end up doing an Interpretive Dance degree because I'm that indecisive 😭😭
Edit 24/06/20: Lol so I'm doing Maths and Physics at uni instead. My firm is Warwick and my Insurance is Birmingham and my lowest offer is A*AA so I've just shegged myself 😭
