  • Not an awful lot, but never mind :) I got a little bag of these little Swiss chocolate eggs (polished those off already), a Belgian chocolate bunny, a bar of Swiss chocolate and a bag of Mini Eggs. I also had a Creme Egg, but I bought that yesterday and forgot to eat it.

    If I were you, I'd write "Read Mike's Comic" on your forehead. :3
    Having to take everything home is a real pain, yeah; I'm really hoping everything'll fit in my mum's car whent he time comes o.O
    Good luck with your revision and everything~ Have you got your exam timetable yet? I've got five exams next term, each three hours long (what fun), but they span two weeks, and I only have to be here for them, and then I can go home and... probably get a job, actually. Assuming I can find one, given I'll be competing against hundreds of other students/recently laid-off Zavvi/Woolies employees.
    ...I'm not sure why I'm being so negative. The fact I'm writing this at gone 4am might have something to do with it. Ignore me :)

    Hehe, I spent most school bus journeys to sixth form hastily finishing psychology and/or philosophy essays; I think it's something everyone does.

    I'm fairly sure most unis will have some kind of language department, and if you're going for modern European langauges (what are you planning to do? French and German? And are you gonna do the year-abroad-thing if you get the chance?), I imagine you'll be able to study pretty much anywhere you want. I had trouble picking out the unis I applied to because everywhere does sociology, but my best friend who's doing American Studies could only choose from a handful because it's such an obscure course.

    I know absolutely nothing about the open days here, thinking about it. I'm sure they get students to help out, but we've only got our exam term left, so people are gonna be frantically busy and then go home. Maybe in September then? Who knows.

    Yup, we lost the house we were planning to get ): Which was not only really sad because we were really looking forward to living there, but a real pain because we had to look everywhere for a new one. But we found one (down the road form the old one, actually) and it's being redecorated and stuff now, so I don't know what it'll look like when it's finished, but we've paid for it anyway and it's in a good place and the rooms are all pretty much the same size and stuff, so it's all good. All this house-buying (well, renting, but still) is so exciting and grown-up~ :)

    October's still absolutely ages away, and you don't have to wait for an open day to go and see the uni; I went with my friend to see Kent and Nottingham on non-open days, and we still got a good feel of what the campus was like, even without a guided tour, etc. If you go somewhere over the summer, say, that has a uni, have a look around the campus, and come back on an open day if you like it. And I know a couple of people here whose first time in Canterbury at all was their first day of uni because they'd only visited their first-choice uni. Bleh; don't worry about it too much; you'll have a great time wherever you end up X3
    o.o Oh my god, that's amazing~~ Hehe, thank you so much! <3 I have to clear all the stuff out of my room for the Easter break, but over the holiday I'm gonna print it out and put it on my pinboard when I get back :3

    Uni is fun. Well, I say that, but I've got three essays to write by the 10th, and I've only vaguely started one, but I've had ages to do them, so I have nobody to blame but myself *hangs head in shame* I've also been lazy with fencing recently (mostly because it runs early on Wednesday evening, and we do our shopping Wednesday afternoon so I keep getting back late and missing it >>), but I think I'll sign up again next year and stick to it.

    Yup, Kent does langauges; in fact, I'll be living in a house with three language students next year X3 My best friend here's doing French and beginner's Italian and seems to be enjoying it; I don't know if they do German, but I suspect they do. You should come to an open day here; I could show you around and stuff :D
    (that said, I have absolutely no idea when the OD even is; October?)
    What other unis are you interested in? I know for a fact that Exeter, Nottingham, Sheffield and Durham are lovely, too. When do you have to do the whole UCAS application-thing?
    In that case, I'll give the shortest responses possible :3

    No, it keeps spinning, but you stop it to eat whatever spaghetti you've managed to ensnare.

    Well, begging seems to fit the bill, but I don't think either of us want you resorting to that... xD

    Yup.

    Oh, right. Well, no, never seen it. :3 Might watch it, being a crazed comedy goblin.
    EDIT: Saw a couple episodes today. It seems great :D

    Are you asking if I like Maths, or Sixth Form in general? No to the former, yes to the latter. I'm quite liking History, but a worryingly small amount seems to be going in... one of my friends is pretty much carrying me, to be brutally honest. xD (Well, not really, but I always have to ask him for points to make whenever I do an essay. xD)

    I'm not too sure yet... on the one hand the Pokémon main series is getting a tad jaded, but I expect I'll get it anyway through force of habit. :)

    And yeah, I mean romantically =) It's quite an unconventional idea but it worked. Nearly. And yes, by all means read more! (sorry for the spoiler D:) And actually my character's quite comfortable with the whole situation, which is equally bizarre. :)
    Hehe, don't worry about it~ Now, to work through this absolutely ginormous reply xD

    The spaghetti fork was from my parents, iirc. It doesn't really work very well. =3 Basically, you press a switch on it and the head spins to wrap up the strands for you. And I'm in sixth form :3 How about you?

    I have to help out with the pub, yes. I wash up for seven hours every Saturday. Not a line of work I'd recommend xD And yeah, I get paid, but not tremendously well... £4 and hour (minimum wage) plus tips. Thanks mum. xD (The pub sign's near-pornographic incidentally, I'm surprised there haven't been complaints. xD)

    Never heard of Black Books. ^^ Is it about some books that are black? Doubt it, but meh.

    I'm glad you enjoyed it ^^ I wish I'd carried on with languages at Sixth Form, but I honestly don't think I'd be able to. I never could exactly grasp all the tenses and such in either of my languages (French and German). Plus my parents forced me into Maths so it'd've meant giving up History, Bio or Law. (One day I shall read the complete story of your Germany visit, but I may have to break it into sections and read it a bit at a time. It's long xD)

    Don't worry about it ^^ Last few months have been alright for me. I got my N64 working and got to play awesome old games (e.g. Banjo Kazooie) again, but most games I want are waaaaaay more expensive than I'm prepared to pay. I've also gotten myself a little stuck in Oddity, which is a pain because there's a story I'm really looking forward to that I plan to move onto next, but can't until I figure out what to do with the current one D: Maybe the concept of me scoring, even in a fictitious universe, was just too surreal to cope with. xD How have you been?

    *falls off computer chair in exhaustion after typing all that*
    Hi Flazeah! I just noticed we haven't talked in aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaages, so I thought I'd better give ya a visitor message :3 (See all those "a"s? That's how long it's been. Disgraceful isn't it?)

    Anyway, I saw you just had work experience in Germany ^^ Did you have a good time?
    Yes, you should.

    And nah, there's no way at all ;_; Well, as far as I'm aware. Hopefully he's the final boss. Yes, please set him be the final boss... xD

    My Christmas was pretty good too ^^ I got a laptop, the complete boxset of Friends, a Freeview box (which I need to get an aerial to use, and until then will have to get by with the very fuzzy version of Channel 4 which is the only channel I seem to be able to get), a special fork for eating spaghetti and two memory sticks, meaning I now have three (my old one and two more I don't need). xD Unless I split all the issues of PMD:Oddity into three. Or make so many I need 6GB of storage to keep them all saved. xD

    My New Years' was OK- I just stayed at home being boring and being on TCoD :3 My mum and dad were holding a celebration of sorts at their pub, but I didn't go because it'd mean being out until 3am, and I'm not good with that kind of thing. xD And I don't think I've ever watched Jonathan Creek, no. Well, I think my dad might have been watching it and I caught bits ^^
    Hey~ Happy New Year! And, you know, hope you had a good christmas as well. X3 How are you?
    Also what woah looks like I missed your birthday. DX Happy Birthday, then~ Oops.
    (Before I start, I apologise that this keyboard has broken apostraphe and 10th-letter-of-the-alphabet keys)

    Ah, its no problem at all; I havent been able to scan things in ages because I dont have a scanner at all at uni and the one at homes broken anyway. Which is a shame because Ive been drawing absolutely loads over December and have to take cappy pictures with my camera. Though Im gonna go to the local library at some point and borrow theirs.

    Ah; I went out for Halloween with some friends; we went to a few of the on-campus student bars and hung out with the fencing club. I dressed up as the biting cat from Azumanga (I bought a hat of it at the London Expo this summer, which made the costume rather easy), and my friends went as Elphaba from Wicked and House from House X3

    But we never get any trick-or-treaters at home because we live on top of the worlds most massive hill (slight exaggeration but you get the idea) so none of the kids can be bothered to come up here XD
    Yup, Halloween birthday cake is the absolute best.

    Hehe, it would be awesome fun to fence against you; fencing is the only thing where being a leftie is a good thing. Im not very good, but I think Im improving. Slowly. X3
    Hey, 12:51PM is early for me, too. XD

    And where's the fun in being a good boy? No shouting and cake-eating and cackling and running and box-brandishing? XD

    I'd recommend Okami quite highly, by the way, if you have a Wii or PS2. It's all based around Shinto mythology, and it's really interesting if you can put up with Amaterasu's companion, who is an annoying little bug that pervs up every single woman character ou come across. XD
    Oxford's a city, not a county- you're thinking of Oxfordshire. XD Still, thanks for the birthday greeting! And the cake would be appreciated but is by no means necessary.

    It's kind of good to be 17 now- I'm sick of all my pals beating me to it! First crazyrockboy, then Dark Shocktail, then Bonkenhi... ><

    And yes, it's a wolf- it's Amaterasu from the game Okami.

    (Mind if I send ya a friend request, by the way?)
    Yes, the 7th ^^ Now a mere 3 days away! ^^ And if you would drop me a visitor message then, that'd be great, but you don't have to ^^

    Fencing huh? Is that fencing as in with foils or epees or whatever, or fencing as in making wooden barriers often put around the perimeter of an area of land? XD

    (I like your avvy by the way ^^ Angry Flareon~)
    No problem, no problem, no problem, no problem ^^ Did you have a good day?

    And I hardly ever check it either, I just happened to scroll down and see your name all alone in there, so bored as usual I thought it'd be nice to wish ya a happy 17th :3

    Ooh, it's mine in 9 days...
