Friday the Thirteenth !!!

Day fourteen

When I set the diary up,it wasn't really to be for humour,or even public viewing.Just a way of me being able to look back on how my life went in a few years time. So I dont apoligise for this entry showing signs of seriousness in it! It isn't going to be as funny as the recent ones either.Sorry !!

Anyone whos anyone knows three things about me

1.I want to be an archaeologist when I grow up
2.Im complelty disorganized
3.Im one of the most random people you will ever meet.
4.I used to model for Burtons

Ok the last one is a lie...i wear burtons clothes though and im sure that inspires people to dress just like me...maybe.

Anyway,its been my dream to become an archaeologist for a while now,good few years at least. I cant recall exactly when,it just happened one day in year 10. I dont know what was my inspiration or anything.I hope to god it wasn't Tony Robinson..dear god please dont let it be Tony Robinson!!

So anyway I've wanted to study arch at uni. I had my heart set on Cardiff.Again im not sure why..Ive never been there,I dont know anything about it really.I just knew that me and Nick Lugg would go there,study history for three years in our own flat,with a puppy called Trotsky to pull girls
eg "Oh he's so cute"
"Yes he is,lets screw!"
"Ok"

Something like that.And it was going really well.We both applied,UCAS worked and Nick got accepted.

But nothings ever that simple. On monday I logged in to check my UCAS status before picking mum up from hospital (Nothing wrong with her,shes a nurse) when I recieved the following

university / college course starting decision your reply updated

Cardiff University VV1K Sep 04 Unsuccessful 10 Feb
campus: entry point:

For the less smart of you out there,lets be politically incorrect and call you retards.I had been rejected.

Now if i was the guy i was 2 years ago,I'd have pretended I didnt care,I didnt mind being rejected,I didnt mind not being good enough,I didnt want to go there anyway ...but im not and I did.In those 3 seconds,my dream of the last 6 months had gone.

I think i sent Nick a txt with the words welsh,bastards and sheep in it.What else is a mystery,I was really furious. I now didnt have a clue what to do.My other uni's had been randomly picked,I was sure I'd get into Cardiff.
(For those of you who think thats arrogance on my part and I deserve to be rejected...its not.I had the backing of an Oxford Docter,a cambridge doctor,Experince,A GCSE in the subject and relatively sound reports and statment which were sent on time.I should ask why I was rejected,but thats irrelevant)

The next day I asked Bullock what I could do. I hate Bullock,he's a tit,but hes the careers guy and would know if I could still get in

Bullock "Well no you cant,unsuccessful means unsuccessful,Where did you apply "
Me "Cardiff"
Bullock "Oh..they dont reject many"

Cheers Dave,talk about kicking you when your down,and off he walked grinning to himself,unaware me and Luke were giving him the w*nker sign behind his back.

So that was that..and I was scared how I would react.Im usually pretty bad when it comes to being rejected,or told I'm not good enough.Ask anyone who knew me last year when I was dumped twice by Vicky for the reason that "I wasn't myself".(Yes that tends to happen when you dont want anyone in 6th form to know we are going out,you live 13 miles away and you dont want me to ring your house and you never want to go out.WHAT THE HELL AM I MEANT TO DO !!!) Anyway I was just a moody asshat for ages after that and when ever I see her,part of me still wants to rip off my arm so I have something to throw at her.I was really scared that I would quit being an archaeologist and start to fail my exams.

But it didn't happen.I was just so so annoyed that I wasnt deemed good enough and a failure by Cardiff that I began to look at other Uni's.Now I want to go to Southampton or maybe Reading.It turns out they are some of the best in Europe,while Cardiff isn't even the best in Wales.Im going to take my 3 year course,PHD and all while having my own puppy called Trotsky...

Thats my new dream and I guess I have to wait till summer to see if I can make this one work....

Anyway that was the main rant ...

Just a big thank you to the Theatre group,I've never been in a production which was so well organized and on top of everything and with decent morale as well !!

Also fourth week lucky for Gareth,L'Hillman and co in their search for Binty.Lets hope we were more successful then Benny who isnt allowed 2 miles near a primary school in the country (Sorry Benny) (Actually sod it,he'll never read this)

Also congrats to Gristy who came second in our elections at Clarendon.Being fair,he was never going to beat the winner who was essentially a Dickie Hawkes for the ladies.However coming second is nothing to laugh about,especially seeing as none of the policies were serious.Prove that Gristy is one of the most powerful people in 6th form....maybe.

Free condoms were given out in assembly and I was lucky enough to grab a handful. Next party if you look for me,I'll be selling them a damn sight cheaper then the toilets will !!!

If your looking for a song to download - Queen - Killer Queen is pretty good and a fav of mine at the moment!

And finally, if you want to watch me dressed pretty much as a girl,wayne and emily sword fight or becky put on an amazing scottish accent then watch our play on March 23rd.Tickets £3 at resources.

Or if you cant be assed,just ask me and I'll tell you what happens so you dont need to bother.(Ali wont read this either!!)

Have a great half term guys !!!!
