I felt like doing that with my English coursework the other day.

Three fucking months, and I was sitting in front of my laptop at 3am the day it was due in with something that was embarrasing to hand in (I just left it on her desk, I didn't want to look her in the eye when I gave it to her).

I'm not sure why I'm such a fucking prick...
hihi 1st year at university i handed in some coursework in october, marks were out early december, i knew it was shit so i waited 'til June to find out my mark Grin

Oh, I won't be picking up my coursework grade any time soon.

I want to feel that I still have a chance of getting a decent grade in the summer...........

Though, coursework is worth about 5%...


...bollocks to it.

Why, would they eat me alive?

They're actually the only uni apart from Kent that haven't given me a conditional offer so far. If they do though, and ask for an interview, they can get tae fuck!

Aye, I only applied because I have a good friend that goes there.

Which highlights my dedication to making sure that I choose the right places...

if i had to offer any advice it would be, choose the place which offers the chance of most relevant work experience and watch out for false promises made in the prospectuses...for me that was the killer, i chose the wrong place in this respect when i did my maths degree which made it near impossible to find relevant work after leaving uni...study long and prosper!

If common perception is to be believed, I won't be able to do anything with my degree in film anyway. So I guess that only applies to clever degrees.

I plan to just go to London and start writing after I graduate.

why not start writing now?...with more experience you will definitely learn more and get more out of the degree...anyone can hit on a good idea so you shouldnt put yourself down...if you have faith then faith will reward you...(bummer, i think im losing my cynical side lol)

Well, I would like to. I've discussed it with a friend of mine a lot.

I'd like to write while at university as well. I may not even plan to finish there, you know, but I just feel like I need to be doing something, at least so it looks like I'm going somewhere.

I guess I'll see what happens before September though.

Cool.

The Partridge Family?  hihi

Writing as a career would be great. It's also my ambition. But like any creative market, it's hard to break into. Dealing with that part is the hardest.

I finished high school here in Australia in 2002 with a high Enter score, since I worked my butt of. I applied to study Law and got accepted, however after doing it for a year and a half realised it wasn't me, and therefore transferred into Business with a major in Marketing. I enjoy it a hell of a lot more and I've got a job lined up for when I graduate at the end of this year, however I want to travel for two years around the world before I settle into the working life  Roll Eyes
