Hey! First post!
Why have I decided to start a blog? I love to write and I'm pretty much halfway through my first novel (I'll try not to talk about that tooooo much tbh). I get a little stuck now and then and I read that a blog was a good way of releasing your writing potential by writing freely... or basically writing shit and exercising your fingers.
I'm in my second year of an Access course at college - don't know what an Access course is?

Well judging by this picture, Google images thinks an Access course is full of fat men with drills. I can hereby denounce this as untrue. Access courses are the equivalent of A-Levels for people like me - who fucked up at school and rather than studying hard for GCSEs went and sat in the park getting stoned. My aim is to go to university, if they'll have me. My UCAS form is apparently at three different universities for English Literature and History and has been for over a week now. I have heard nothing yet.
Applying for university is a pretty daunting and stressful time for me tbh. I know where I want to go (my top choice!) but I'm pretty sure I know where I'll end up going (my bottom choice; my safety net). I can't stop looking at the university website online. I have a slight obsession with 'looking everything up'. I know more about my top choice uni than probably most of the students that go. And there's another thing - current students. Gawd, I bet they're all young and fashionable. It'll be terrible.
Of course, I know I'm going there to learn, but still, I need to know what I'm up against.

Good god. This is what history students look like. I'm unsure whether to cancel my application and just go for Literature, or rejoice that for once I might actually be the coolest person on the course.
Well, I have an essay to write, about the Suffragettes. Then I need to go in the kitchen and make my man a sammich.
Take it easy x
