Waiting

[ChildishLegacy]

So tomorrow morning is A level results day over in the UK, these results mostly determining whether we all get into our universities of choice or not, I'd expect anybody in this position to be a bit nervous.

For whatever reason though I feel like absolute shit waiting for these results, I can't think about much else and I'm getting ridiculously worked up over something that I can't help right now, and no amount of games/tv/reading I try to distract myself with is taking my mind off it at all.

I know I can just wait this one out because it's just tomorrow, but what do you do when you have to wait for something major or have to sit around feeling helpless for a few days?

Anybody else noticed captchas been getting a bit harsh lately? (I got that one wrong -.-)

Well, you could go on an adventure to find out who makes those terrible captchas. That might be fun and distracting, and when you're done, you can beat up whoever the perpetrator is.

EDIT: Best of luck to you, by the way.

Drink copiously.
Stay away from Bell's whisky. It tastes like cat piss.

And yes, good luck. I gave up on the education system, largely because my secondary school sent me to Oxford University for a few days.
Full of upper-class twats. I hated it and desired no part of it.

Hah, don't know how to say this but my university of choice is Cambridge xD

Not that I'm upper class, I live in Grimsby (slightly northern chav-ridden town) and have a Grimsby accent, as such I swear a lot, I don't really care if they don't like that I'm going there solely for education xP

Also, I have been drinking a bit, but I don't want to feel like absolute shit if I have to start calling universities/my school and actually organize stuff tomorrow

Lmao fuck falling asleep tonight. I can envision myself spending the next 9 hours lying in bed with my eyes wide open staring at the ceiling.

 

[hazabaza1]

Oh yeah, that's happening, isn't it?
More excited about friday myself. For individual reasons though.

I don't know if I'm even going to try yet, I don't see much point in it xP

Man, I remember feeling like total shite before my A-Level results came through. Worth it though - the feeling of absolute euphoria when I came out with all 4 A*s and the highest grades in my Sixth Form was un-fucking-believable. Also, we all went and got absolutely sloshed, well and truly rat-arsed, pissed as farts, wankered and utterly gazebo'd afterwards. Fucking ace.

Similar feeling this summer just gone, waiting to see if I passed first year of my degree, and a similar level of drinking occurred afterward the positive results (Distinction in Latin, currently performing at a 2:1 level with First in easy reach in English, fuck yeah).

Bottom line, embrace your worry. Revel in feeling that bad because when you get good results coming through, the high is fucking immense. If they're bad results, DON'T PANIC - it's not the end of the world by any means. Shrug, accept you done goofed in some way and vow to remedy it. Also, make sure to get drunk, in both cases.

Oh wait, there's an actual question? Uhh, I dunno, video games, books and music worked for me, but the suggestion of hunting down the evil captcha creators sounds like a bloody good adventure to me
