University Application @ MindSay

Karlie and I are dating. it's good now.



soo i'm going to Humboldt State University. that's my goal.
the application doesn't become available to me until October first, and it has to be mailed in my November first.

is that even enough time?? i don't know if i need letters of recommendation or what.
...what if i don't get in.

Today has been an incredably slow day.  I woke up around 9 this morning and laid in bed waiting for my roommate to leave for work.  Bad thing was she didn't seem to have to work early like she usually does.  So I laid there for a good hour before I felt motivated to get up.  Hoping to kill some time I jumped on to the laptop and started checking my mail and such.  Waiting for me was a nice letter from the university stating that they had not recieved all the information of how I was going to be paying them.  Because of this if all information was not gotten by wednsday I will be charged a late fee, and if not received by friday then my classes will be cancelled.  Well, that gave me something to do.  Off I went to fill out a application for a student loan from the site that the university had recomended that I use, got approved for the loan, and now I'm hoping that they will get that to the university by wednsday so I don't have the extra charge. 

 

School just doesn't seem to like me.  First the stupidly hard chemistry class causes me to lose my scholarship and now they want to take away my classes because I don't have the money on my own to pay. 

 

The only thing that seemed to happen today that made the day seem to go kinda fast for a time was when I went to see my advisor ladyfriend.  I love talking to her, she make me so happy.  It makes me feel like I have a good friend to talk to whenever I want, even if it is just the motherly part of her.  I even got to tag along and be the annoying third-wheel with her and her hubby.

Other than that I've just been secluding myself to my room.  Most of the time my room mate has been here with her boyfriend so I just stay out of the way.  I have caught up on my reading that way though.  I've been making my way threw Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, my favorite Harry Potter book yet.  I'm afraid that I rushed threw it the first time, so I'm trying to take it in more this time.  I don't think I caught on to a lot of the romance that went into this book.  I knew that in the end who had hooked up with whom, but while reading it I never picked up a lot of the signs that make me now kick my feet and squill with delight. lol.  I wonder if there are any tips that I could learn from this book, haha.   I have learned that I don't like PDA all that much. I want to beat Ron upside the head for all the snogging he did with Lavendar in open view in the common room.  I also get very annoied (going back to the roommate) when people decide to have a tickle fight in the middle of the living room while I'm trying to watch something.  Then gives me a stare like it should have made me want to leave the room, why hadn't I left yet?  Sorry, you can make as much noise as you want, give me glares, or even make-out with him in the kitchen in plain view.  I haven't watched anything on tv for like 3 days, I'm going to watch this half hour show!

 

Now I'm stuck with the thoughts of what have been going threw my mind most of the day....Boys....I don't think I really want to go into what I've been thinking at the moment.  It's really odd right now.  Things are finally kinda looking good for this weekend, but my mind is drawing else where.  Why?  I don't know.  Do you even know what that last thought ment?  Maybe not, but right now I do, though I'll probably forget later and be like, what the heck was I talking about.  Oh well, it's only for this moment that I blog.  The second thing that is bothering me is the amount of water I have drank today.  It's crazy and I'm probably going to be up and in the bathroom most of the night.   

Since I last wrote, I managed to get my university application sussed - I went for Film production & related areas. I can't remember the exact courses I went for. That's pretty bad, isn't it?! I got an offer from the University of Chester today though, yay :) But... haha.. I can't remember what course that is. I'll see if I can log onto UCAS and it'll tell me..

 

A-ha! yay, according to this I've got an offer from Aberystwyth too! Okay, this is what I've applied for:

• University of Chester: Film Studies and Media Production (TV)
• University of Wales, Aberystwyth: Film & Television Studies
• University of Gloucestershire: Film Studies & Journalism and Professional Writing
• Cardiff University: Journalism, Film and Media
• Bournemouth University: Television Production
• University of Gloucestershire: Digital Film Production

My offer from Aber says I need 280 points - which is... two Bs and a C. Considering I got two As and a B last year, I think we're alright :)

 

My offer from Chester says I need 240 points, including at least a C in Media Studies.

 

I'm chuffed I've got some offers. Yay. I'm feeling more positive about the whole thing now. Despite the fact that I reallllly don't feel grown up enough to go. Seriously. I'm the same person I was when I was twelve. I remember thinking about university years ago, and it seemed so so far away, and how grown up I'd be before I went, etc etc. Now it's nine months away, and everything still seems the same as it did then when it was light years away...
