So I'm not going to Cambridge any more.
I didn't get rejected, I didn't fail to send in work that they wanted. I just...don't want to go. I've done the whole rigorous academic thing, and while I will forever and always adore the mental stimulation and challenge I get from academic work, I just don't feel like I want to live in a university where you are encouraged NOT to get part-time work because you simply won't be able to fit it in with the amount of work you do. I have no doubt that I would do well in an interview, and I am certain I'd have a good shot at getting in, but what's the point in even attending an interview when getting accepted is going to be the worst of the two options?!
I love to work. But when I go to university I would like to find out what play is like. That's all. If people can't accept that this decision is what will make me happy, then perhaps they should stop paying attention to my life. (That comment was addressed to a certain non-relative of mine XD).
On a brighter note, considering the things that have been happening to me recently, it's as if God or whatever's out there doesn't want me to go to Cambridge!
As soon as I made the decision not to go, I've had calls for two job interviews, I feel so much happier, my relationship with my parents is getting back to normal and when I saw my boyfriend the other day, he said "You sounded cheery on the phone earlier."
I DIDN'T EVEN THINK I SOUNDED ANY DIFFERENT FROM NORMAL. That in itself tells me something.
Well, that was the update on my life, not that anyone really reads this XD. If you want to talk and reciprocate, send me a message. Otherwise, I'm going to concentrate on my suddenly stress-free life.
G'bye.

So, here I was, just finishing my uber-healthy dinner, when L from the flat downstairs walks in.
Now, L only ever comes to visit M, because they're doing the same course. I like L, (he's somewhat of a Renaissance man - imagine, a mechanics student who freely professes his love for poetry and literature!!!) so my intrigue is peaked, and M's rushing around like the most beautiful headless chicken you've ever seen, so I just kind of went "Ohi guys...whatcha doin'?"
My Phineas & Ferb-esque interrogation paid off. M (who I also really like - the day I moved in she just comes strolling on up and introduces herself, shakes my hand...I admire t
GAHHHHHH
Okay.
I've been sat at my computer since noon doing university work. NOON.
It is now seven minutes past five.
While I did write up English lecture notes, that five hours has been dominated by my module on Russian Culture and Civilisation.
To any Russians out there:

So.
My gap year was eventful.
And now I'm at uni.
The goal is achieved.
.....
How very excellent.
No, in all seriousness, I am happy to be here. I've been so lucky with flatmates. All of my friends who swanned off in all of their intellectual glory to university when they were meant to, and thusly have one more year of intimate knowledge of the inner workings of university life all assured me that I'd hate it, all of the people there are horrible, and that contrary to popular opinion they're having the worst time of their young lives. I - the only intimate knowledge having been learned from my gap year being that of recognising the look
