Queenie!
Sorry to inform you that my surname is a "Y"...
:frown:
I'm sure you'll hear soon though!
Good luck!
Which college?


I've gone for St. Hild and St. Bede's because I heard that they had a good dramatic society; to be honest I'd be happy in any college that has good drama facilities! I take it you've got an offer? Well done :smile: Which college for you?

Hahaha if that was the case, me with the surname B would've heard tiiiime ago. I wouldnt worry myself about it, whats done is done and if not meant to be its not meant to be. I know so much easier said than done but if your genuinely a good candidate then itll be their loss and remember that with motivation and capability, you can go anywhere in life...cream always rises to the top...:wink:


Hahaha, good mindset!
Ironically I'm allergic to cream, so I'm hoping that's not foreboding :biggrin:
But hey, what happens happens :p:
Good luck!!

St Cuths for me :smile:
I do indeed have an offer.
I can't say I'm overly fussy about drama though. :s-smilie:

What a bummer, especially after waiting so long... You'd rather go to St Andrew's anyway right?

Yeah I know! :rolleyes:
I always knew Durham was a long shot and was anticipating a rejection, even though I already have the A-Level grades etc., but it still sucks to see an unsuccessful scrawled across Track! :frown:
Oh well, you win some you lose some! At least St Andrew's is unconditional and I don't have any conditions to worry about meeting! :redface:

I realise it was a joke. But, honestly I am a little tired of these one-liners that will instigate a whole discussion on the merits of the university. Don't tell me it wouldn't cause you know it will. And sorry about your unsuccessful application.

Oookay...:confused: So she's an instigator now....? :eek: Instead of saying something to lighten to blow of getting a rejection from Durham, my g/f has instigated a discussion on the merits of the university! Wow! :rolleyes:

Not on purpose but she would be unintentionally. She's your girlfriend? I guess the "i love chester!!" signature would make it obvious if I was paying any attention. Well anyway, good luck in St. Andrews.

It's only because people are stressed. Wait until all the decisions are in and then we'll skip around a campfire as petals fall from above. Until the lead-up to results...
