Hey guys!
GUESS WHAT (it isn't really that much of a surprise) but I've sent off
my UCAS application! (hence the title I did it if you didn't know what I was on about. I only sent it off on Friday as first my English
teachers needed to write more on my reference as apparently my
psychology teachers wrote more than my English ones even though I'm
applying for an English degree not a psychology one.. Anyway, then it
took me practically the whole of Friday to get it done as my head of
sixth form helped me pick universities with lower entry grades because
if you haven't noticed, most of the good ones are ridiculously high
which is just unfair. Typical me but I also completely forgot about my
science and art gcse, probably because I blocked out the art one as I
was so close to a B and for the amount of effort/work I put in it still
annoys me even today. Luckily your teacher can send back the application to
you as many times as you need which in my case was about 5 because oh
yeah I also didn't realise you had to put your AS grades in. But like
I'm sorry does anyone actually know what advanced subsidiary means (now
that I say it it's obvious that it's short for AS) but we weren't
explained properly about the application so yeah let's not blame me, life lesson for you: don't blame yourself..always blame the
school;)
In the end I applied for York, York St Johns, Chester, Sheffield and
Newcastle Uni. My target grade is ABB so in the unis I chose I have some
AAB but they accept ABB and some below like BBC or 300 UCAS points as
backups. Honestly I do have favourites but I'm just gonna wait to see
which ones I get offers from..if any (you wouldn't think I was an
optimist reading this but I am honestly) and then go visit the places again as
some unis I haven't even been to I've just read/heard about them oops.
So if any of you haven't sent off your application yet then take it from
me who procrastinated ever since I finished my personal statement and
just avoided my teachers for a bit. The longer you wait to send it off,
the more stress it'll cause you because you will constantly get reminded
to send it off so basically do it to shut up all your teachers who harass you to do it. Also congrats to anyone who has got offers already,
you smart piece of shit;) my compliments get less complimenty every day
(it's a word okay..)
So honestly I haven't done much apart from UCAS and rushing work in my
private studies because sending off my application has always been in the
back of my mind and it's been stressing the hell out of me.
(IT'S DONE, IT'S LIKE THE BIGGEST WEIGHT HAS BEEN LIFTED OFF MY SHOULDERS YASS) side note one of the reasons I love the word 'yaass' now is because of this video I saw on facebook of a clip from the lion king of them saying yass but in different pitches it is the best thing ever! (it isn't actually from the Lion King but I wish it was) Google or Facebook it now!! I'm waiting...
let me know what you think, if you don't love it then I'll be disappointed in you (only for a bit then I'll get over it ha)
Just had to get my excitement out but quickly moving on. The reason it's
posted later is I've just finished my first proper 6 hour shift at
Next and then been doing school work. What a fun life I live..but the reason I say proper isn't because I haven't done a shift
before because I've done 7 hours before but on sale week where all you
do is tidy, organise and basically pick up clothes off the floor as well
as helping customers. Today I did my till training and wow I sympathise
with people who work there full time because damn the tills are so
complicated nowadays and especially with it recently being updated to
touch screen it literally take decades to register once you've tapped it and
then actually load (no exaggeration or sarcasm here;)
Anyone been watching I'm a celebrity or strictly (my mum's got me into
strictly) but Lady C is so irritating as she thinks she is so above
everyone else when in fact the only reason she is a lady is because she
married a Lord?! The insults she uses just shows she never was and never
we will be a lady though, ugh she just goes too far like saying how Tony Hadley
doesn't even have a good voice..I mean he's a legend I always have gold
stuck in my head (don't know if that's a good thing though) On Strictly, Jay is my favourite because he used to be a member of one of my best friend's favourite band (and he's really cute) and then Helen as I love watching her on call the midwife she is such an amazing actor and now an amazing dancer..so jealous of her looks though.
Hope you're surviving school/uni/work! Remember to always enjoy yourself
and don't put so much pressure on yourself (if only I'd listen to myself more..)
Byeee (until next week)
Sophie
