Your fairy godmother has waived her wand. You are still a loner and still talking to yourself. Do you wish to rethink your PPH abuse? x

Well I thought I'd post considering a) nobody else with an offer has and b) you are now getting mocked lol.

I'm Ryan, will (hopefully, grades permitting) be studying Modern Languages, French and Spanish, at Oriel in October. I'm from Northern Ireland btw, so my interview process was not only expensive but taxing lol...but I agree that Oriel is beautiful and selective.As for college life etc, you can't research that too much, though I have heard of the Tory, right-wing aura (which actually suits me to a tee as I'm part of the 'vast right-wing conspiracy' as some term it lol).

Anyway we need to find out if there's anybody else with an offer, as there are at least seven others for languages.

Where are you from Patrick?

Lifestyle: go out, drink lots. Forget about work till day before. Complete work in Libray.

Politics: As wide a range as anywhere.

/\Terrific. Particularly the summary of the lifestyle.
I'm from Kent, Ryan. Blame my extraordinarily mongrel-ly genes for an Irish first name and a Dutch (via Zimbabwe) surname.

Several days later, you now have a friend. Isn't that exciting?! You see how your popularity has soared since knowing me. Isn't it a shame you don't know anyone at your college studying the same subject? I found mine, even though there's only one other. Still, don't worry, I won't abandon you, meus parvus servus, Sarah et ego te amamus... :P x

Hey guys, I'm James
I'll hopefully (AAA permitting) be studying Law at Oriel college next year. I'm from near Ashby in Leicestershire (which is the town at the centre of the country).

Patrick...i possibly met you at interview week: with Callum (from Marlboro'), Marcus (the Swedish guy), Johnny (from Newcastle), and Dennis (from leeds). Does this sound familiar?

I was a St. Hugh's app (I know, I know) who got pooled and had my interviews on Friday evening when every other Classics person went home Thursday morning. So I doubt it. But hopefully we'll meet in October.

By the way, don't be scared of Sheridan. She is the resident bag-lady of the OxColleges board. She talks to mushrooms. Smokes them too.
She'll encourage you to do Maths and NatSci at Cambridge before inexplicably coming to Oxford for an arts degree...keep away from her.

Not really. We love her. :handkiss:

OMG, how dare you! Did no-one tell you to have respect for your elders?? I don't know why I bother. And you may not handkiss me. Pervert :P xxx

I'm Matt from Kent, going to be doing maths, and trying desperately hard to get rid of my prejudice for private school kids!

*sigh* Hope that was in jest.

Nothing wrong with the private school kids I met, they were actually all a right laugh. Just as many stuck-up pricks at state schools, if you ask me. At least at mine. I'm probably one of them half the time.
And we're all in the Oxford Fresher boat together. Can't we just all gang up on Cambridge? Or on Sheridan over on the Greyfriars board?

Don't even think about it, my boy! You are not in my good books as it is :wink:

So there. Besides, you won't feel this way when I get my own back (with Sarah) :biggrin:

xxx P.S. Gang up on Cambridge, and I'll skin you (and no dinner cooked for a few days)

Love you too sweetheart.
And skin me? Is that any way to talk to your husband on Valentine's day? I gave you a present and a hug...

You needn't try the sympathy vote on with me! You're very happy to leave me in YOUR College and on other Classics expeditions by myself. Is that any way to treat me the day after Valentine's Day?? xxx
