So it's like Sunday now.
On Friday, I got home from having gone to play background music with the music class to find the long-awaited letter from Durham sitting on the dining table. Mum had announced it before I found it. I'd known before that something had finally happened with my application to Durham cause I checked on their website and it informed that my application had got past the 'department' stage, so I was just waiting for a college to accept me.
I opened the letter and it said they've found me a place. I was happy.
I sent my application of to universities on 28th November, 2006, and I hear back from my least-fave two on the 13 and 14th of December then they make me wait right up until the 8 and 9th of February to hear from my top two! They came in twos, which was, actually, slightly annoying, if I'm honest. Which I am. Mostly.
Then yesterday morning, in a fit of rashness, I decided I'd reply to my university offers. I've placed Durham as my first choice - their offer was ABB (with a B in German) - and Leeds as my insurance, cause their offer was nice and low (BBC with B in German). I think I may have chosen an insurance too low, cause if I only mess up my exams a little bit, but still miss ABB, I'll have to go to Leeds, when perhaps, had I got BBB, I could've put Exeter as my insurance...
Does this make sense?
Yes.

Congrats on getting into uni. I have no clue what ABB or BBC means. Students at school are getting their notices right about now, but March will be the big month--the official acceptances and financial information month.
Well written article.
