Oh well it was two days until the end of clearing so I jumped right back on the horse and rang up again to see if they had any places left on Graphic Design. They did! Phew
So I waited another week or so and ended up ringing them again to find out how they were getting on with that. They asked if I could come in within the next half hour
Will was off home that day which was quite inconvenient as I needed his help with the coding of the website as I have never used Dreamweaver before!
So I went to Cat Hill and joined the open day, was told to sit at the back of the hall for the presentation to the visitors. I felt a bit awkward being in uni when my first year went so badly
Anyway I was sat at the back of the hall and of course my recent cough showed me up (lol) I got festival flu from Reading and have been trying to shake it off since I came back. I ended up having to leave because of a coughing fit :hehe: a guy got me a cup of water though which was nice
Then I got brought into the hall to be taken away by whoever was doing my Graphics interview....it was Jeff
For the next 2 and a half hours I was subjected to the open day festivities, a talk about the subject, a guided tour (all of which I was meant to have seen already) all the while I was crapping myself about what I said in my illustration interview and how it won't look good for me. At one point I was asked what I would do if I didn't get onto the course and I replied 'er, apply for something else and then change...? ....if that's possible...?' which I don't think went down well.
Anyway we came to actually getting interviewed and I said to Jeff 'Oh You've already interviewed me' and he says 'Have I? Oh I thought I recognised you, it was a few months ago wasn't it?' I replied 'It was last week...' haha
So I got Lillian instead as Jeff said it wasn't fair that he should interview me twice
She was nice and chatty so I just kept talking throughout the whole thing, filling in gaps with interesting stuff, tried to sound optimistic and up for the course. She recognised Totoro from one of my project idea sheets on the website
So I get back to the house and Herc had been a prick about the rug in the lounge and Rich was out at work all day so it was a bit depressing sitting in the house. So I rang up everyone who cared to let them know how my interview went and asked Will if I could come up to Alvechurch. It's only £12 return with my railcard and a 2 hr train journey away and the Beer Festival is on today, tomorrow and Sun so it's worth coming up
So I get fed and watered when I get there and we all go to sleep.
I wake up to a phone call from Middlesex telling me I have a place on Graphics!!
So my life is sorted for another year
I hope more things that have been stressful over the Summer are sorted out too soon. I want to stick with Graphics if I got rejected from Illustration twice, they know what they are looking for in a student; there's not much point in pretending to be good at something you're not.
More good news is that Pokemon Soul Silver and Heart Gold have leaked onto the Internet early (even though they are out tomorrow) so now I have some free time for a little bit I can play the new games to my heart's content

A birthday rhyme for you
on your special day
Monday's child is fair of face.
Tuesday's child is full of grace.
Wednesday's child is loving and giving.
Thursday's child works hard for a living,
Friday's child fears no foe.
Saturday's child has far to go.
And the child born on Sunday
is bonny and wise in every way.
find the day of the week you were born here [link]

No one gets out alive all we can hope for is
when all is said and done more is done than said
"Because today's so special
it really wouldn't do,
to send one simple birthday wish
to last the whole year through...
So this wishes happy moments,
a day when dreams come true,
and a year that's filled with all the things
that mean the most to you."

Love that lives in the heart cannot be so easily terminated by time. Even though the encounter is brief its impression shall last a lifetime. No one can change the direction of love that lives in the heart. If you have loved that in itself is the answer.
