I DID IT!

I got into my first choice University! Bournemouth here I come! :beam:

I needed to get a B in my module resit (missed it by 5 marks last years.. passed it by 2!!) and I did! OMG, SO much relief you can't imagine! I mean... I only got back from holiday yesterday! I was so worried!

and in other good news, my brother got into uni as well! :beam:
not sure whether this is good or not.. but he's going to bournemouth too! lol!


HOORAY! YIPPEE! ETC!

[Kitiara]

Obviously it went better than you thought. :)

Well done though, I bet you're chuffed. :P

[asphaltcowboy]

soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo happy!
but no one to celebrate with.. everyone's on holiday! :beam:
might have a ring round and see which of my friends are in the country ;)

[Kitiara]

Since it's almost lunchtime...

<b>*Hands over virtual pint and celebratory pie*</b>

Knock yourself out. :)

[asphaltcowboy]

lol.. mmMMmm.. teh tasty Virtual Pint™ :thumb:

[Kitiara]

With none of the intoxicating effects of the real thing, and a lot lighter on your pocket to boot. :P

[asphaltcowboy]

sounds like my kinda drink! :beam:

aww wow.. this is soooooo cool.. no stress for like.... a month or something ;) (except of course when you drive me to slave labour next week kit ;))

[Kitiara]

I wouldn't quite go so far as slave labour you know... :)

[asphaltcowboy]

we shall see...

*waits for kit to utter the fateful word... 'Intranet'*

j/k ;)

[Kitiara]

I'm holding that one in reserve. :evil:

Fun stuff to start with, the I-word later. ;)

[lava]

*passes over a wee dram*

Rather fine orchestra Bournemouth has, y'know.

[Soul]

I told you :sure:

[lava]

ok, fine, don't tell me.

[asphaltcowboy]

Congratulationalamalalamadingdongies to you!

[pinx]

good job! you'll have fun, i hope!:)

I'm in the process of applying to grad school. I know I'll get in, but I have to turn in all these things with my application.

three letters of recommendation, GRE scores, statement of purpose, previous work, and a resume.

i'll be so glad when it's over.

have fun at college though, and don't drink too much. haha

[prstudio]

Congratulations!

[Ranoka]

Well done asphalt!

My best mate is starting at Bournemouth uni too!

[kirupa]

Congrats Asphalt! I have never heard of the place, but judging from the quality of the Web site http://www.bournemouth.ac.uk/ it seems like one heck of a place to go to and graduate from!

I bet you must be relieved after finding that out :thumb:

[Coppertop]

Congrats!

I have never heard of bounemouth, but it sounds like a good university! (I want to go to waterloo)

[DigitalPimp]

Super pimped out congrats man!

[DariusMonsef]

Congrats mate.

You name the place I'll buy the celebratory drinks.

Welcome back as well.

[Kitiara]

You do realise how dodgy that last bit sounded, don't you? :P

[asphaltcowboy]

it wasn't intentional. honest. :P

[Kitiara]

Hmm, do I believe you? :)

Er, no. :P

Anyway, manage to find anyone to celebrate with in the end? :)

[asphaltcowboy]

lol. believe me! it's true I tells ya! 'onest guv'!

as for celebrating.. went out for a meal with the family.. which was nice :) I think I'm out on saturday though :thumb:

[Kitiara]

Party at your house it is then. ;)

[asphaltcowboy]

only if you can put up with the dusty/musty/unlived-in smell that is still hanging around ;)

[Kitiara]

Party at mine?

If anyone can put up with the huge pile of ironing that needs doing / dodgy cooking / miles of cable across the floors. :P
