emma watson applying.

I've just reached a whole new level of geekness.

A commendable aspiration, considering that she is already said to have amassed in the region of seven-million pounds based on her allegiance to the Potter franchise; and, certainly, she appears not to lack the academic wherewithal (though I'd question her choice of A-Levels).

I think it was in Varsity (either that or The Cambridge Student) that she was taking 3 a levels, including dance, therefore she wouldn't be able to get an offer because Cambridge don't count dance as a proper a level.

I wouldn't want to give up the uni experience even if I was a multi-millionaire.

Ooh good, that means we won't have her. I've seen her round Oxford sometimes, she acts like a right stroppy little sod - and doesn't seem to like having to queue.
I realise that was completely inconsequential to the topic of this thread, but I just thought I'd add my (clearly highly useful) point!

I am continually amazed at the determination of such wealthy individuals. With seven million pounds, I am sure that I would be quite unable to resist the temptation to simply invest the sum and renounce life's myriad pressures entirely. Assuming, at the very least, an increase of 5% per annum, I would receive an annual income of over three-hundred thousand pounds; a handsome salary, by any standard, and quite enough leisurely to live out my days as a writer.

Apropos, have you heard my brother's work? I hope to pull no punches in saying that it evokes a sonic collision [collusion?] between Luke Vibert, Squarepusher, DJ Shadow and Massive Attack; and I'm his harshest critic.
