I'm in that state of tired where the only thing that I want to do is go to bed. Normally, I'm all 'meh' about sleeping. Tonight, I can't wait. Just got to read a small bit of something then I can.
So. Winter appears to arrived up here in the North - it's rained for about three days (continuously today) and it was freezing outside in the wind. Dear College: Please turn on the heating so I don't have to wear my coat and still freeze my ass off in classrooms, kthxnolovebye, Me.
Also, I could have screamed in class today - in a two hour lesson, the only constructive thing that happened was when I wrote down a three line definition of 'threshold' (in a political sense). The rest of the lesson was spent with the teacher trying to get the four loudmouth brats that are the BANE OF MY LIFE to shut up for even just one damn minute so the rest of us could read stuff.
On the upside of awesome, I was half an hour late for my first lecture but then found out that the teacher was off sick so I totally got away with it, YAY! Also, I have pretty much decided on my final six University choices for my UCAS form. They are:
Oxford
University College London
Royal Holloway
St. Andrews
Edinburgh
Durham
Any of those would be awesome Uni's to go to. I would have chucked a couple of 'safe' options in there if it weren't for the fact that at even less well-regarded schools, the requirements for an English, History or English and History course are still AAA or AAB. Because they're popular. So what the hell, I might as well aim for the best. The only place I saw that would take less than those grades was Queen's University, Belfast, which was BB. That'd be easy to get but much as I love Belfast and Northern Ireland, I don't want to live that close to my father for three years. And anyway, if I don't get accepted at any of them I could probably still get a place at a good Uni through Clearing, though if I don't get one of those, I probably won't bother going at all. It's not as if I have a specific job in mind to go for afterwards, anymore. So, heigh ho.
Non-academic stuff...attractive!Sam at work has broken up with his girlfriend. And, uh...asked me for my number tonight. Heh. :D For that matter, Cute Polish Boy is also breaking up with his girlfriend on the weekend...hmmm.
So many men, so little inclination to actually make a move for either of them. But still. It's fun to think about. :D!
And now, fuck it. I'm freezing and going to bed, damnit.
