"I tried to do handstands for you"


Ahem. Please forgive this brief moment of spastic flailing:


CAMBRIDGE MADE ME AN OFFERRRR

AAB




HURRAH




All I have to do now is, er, actually get the grades. Whoops?



STILL. CHRIST'S COLLEGE CAMBRIDGE SAID YES TO ME! *does a little dance*

WOOOOOOOO YAY!!!!! Well done!!!!! :D

I'm sure you don't need to worry about getting the grades, you will win at A-Levels!

[identity profile] moogle62.livejournal.com 2009-01-05 11:27 pm (UTC)(link)
YAYYYY ♥ Thank you!

(Er, because I am rubbish, remind me which day that Royal Holloway Open Day thingum is? Are you still going? Do you want to go get coffee or something and talk about nonsense in a break from, um, knowing stuff? QUESTIONS.)

I hope A-Levels don't just laugh in my face. I feel they might. Have you done some Livy unseens? WHY DOES HE WRITE ABOUT SUCH RUBBISH? OH HAI, I DON'T CARE ABOUT THESE DRUNKEN FLUTE-PLAYERS, NOR ABOUT THESE SOLDIER WITH SUCH AN ATTACHMENT TO A DONKEY THAT THEY PROVOKE 800 THRACIANS TO COME WAR IN THEIR FACES. Still, better than Caesar, I guess. Is your set text an Ovid this year?

[identity profile] misplacedmarble.livejournal.com 2009-01-07 05:40 pm (UTC)(link)
I am going to the Royal Holloway Open and it is Wednesday Feb 11th (my first attempt to spell 'Wednesday' failed in a spectacularly embarrassing manner, I must admit this). :) We must totally meet up at some point - and I'm sure we'll see each other in the talks and stuff too, right? And are you bringing a parent-like entity?

I HAVE DONE BOTH THOSE LIVY UNSEENS. He's so boring and rubbish. :( Ovid's our verse unseen author this year, obviously I will never get away from him. :P

[identity profile] moogle62.livejournal.com 2009-01-07 05:50 pm (UTC)(link)
We're doing Ovid too. This week's unseen was the one about Calypso and Odysseus (WHOSE NAME IS JUST NOT ULYSSES, OKAY) and his spastic map in the sand. Oh yeah, Ovid. Groovy.

I am indeed: I am bringing my mother. What about you?


(ps: I always have to say wed-nez-day when I write it, just so I spell it right :DD)

[identity profile] misplacedmarble.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 05:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, who exactly decided that Ulysses/Ulixes would translate into Odysseus? I mean...what?

I am also bringing my mother! :)

(ps: Me too! I think I got it wrong because I didn't do it that one time. XD)

[identity profile] moogle62.livejournal.com 2009-01-08 09:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Technically we should blame the Romans for changing Odysseus' name into SOMETHING EVEN MORE STUPID in their language.

(...I should probably sort out train tickets for the open day some time soon :O)

I TOLD YOOOU THEY WOULD TOTALLY WANT YOOOOOOU

*hugs very tightly* This is awesome news and you are awesome.

YAYES, I CAN HAS DANCING MARY ICON! :DDDDD

Thanks v. much, my sweet ♥

[identity profile] missfoxie.livejournal.com 2009-01-05 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I bought a set of Hamlet postcards when I went to see it, and naturally I do not really need the Tennant ones. Would you like to have them? They're quite nice. :)

[identity profile] moogle62.livejournal.com 2009-01-05 11:41 pm (UTC)(link)
Tennant postcards? With Tennant's pretty face? Tennant not being the Doctor? YES PLZ.

(Is it sad that I am already planning which posters/wall-addenda will be essential to come to whichever uni room I end up in?)

[identity profile] missfoxie.livejournal.com 2009-01-05 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
YAY. They are going to a good home. I will post them to you in a week or two, once my exams are over.

(Not sad at all. I did the same thing. The first thing I always do in my uni rooms is decorate the noticeboard. For me, a room is not a home until Harriet Walter is staring out at me from a poster. *grins*)

Those little arms-in-the-air people make me happy every time I see them! Doesn't Other Maddie go to Cambridge? Which college/what is she studying?

Randomly, do we know when Being Human is on?

ALSO HAI MADDIE HOW ARE YOU HAI HAI

[identity profile] strangeumbrella.livejournal.com 2009-01-06 12:59 am (UTC)(link)
Yes! Other Maddie is at Clare, reading French and Spanish. Most of what I have discovered about this is that she has to write an essay every week, but then again she does usually do it the night before, and seems to be coping. :D Being Human: I... don't know! But the trailer says "soon", so my answer is going to be SOON. Maybe in the next few weeks, I'd guess? I rely on the internets to keep me updated on these things. Also, HAI I'M GOOD THANKS, enjoying a few days of not doing much and ignoring the fact I should totally be revising/possibly writing an essay.

[identity profile] moogle62.livejournal.com 2009-01-06 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
Oooh, Clare. It has the oldest bridge in Cambridge (oh yeah, I totes know stuff. My mother and I kind of snuck in and stood on said bridge to watch the attractive boys punting people up and down the river and we overhead this fact. Yayes, knowledge!) Is Other Maddie enjoying herself in the land of academia?

I just saw the trailer! It makes me feel less discombobulated re: casting change. MITCHELL AND GEORGE AND ANNIE ON OUR FACES AGAIN. If I end up writing a plethora of fic for this show, it is so not my fault (and also will be pointless, as the one you wrote where it's Mitchell's birthday and George goes all panicky jazzhands about it is, like, the best thing ever).


Incidentally, you know that thing that looks like a hyphen but is more squiggly and is used with a star in Internet land to make a word look special? Where is that on my Mac keyboard? I am not seeing it. ON THE PLUS SIDE, I can now make an @ or some " without pressing the wrong key first :DDDD

[identity profile] strangeumbrella.livejournal.com 2009-01-06 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
lol lol mac problems: ~ is just to the left of the z key, above a weird backwards apostrophe? :D Apologies for flying comment, REALLY SHOULD GO TO BED

[identity profile] miss-atom.livejournal.com 2009-01-04 09:38 pm (UTC)(link)
OMG THAT IS EPIC. You will totally nail your A-Levels.

Sorry for this momentary lapse of knowledge, but what are you studying?

[identity profile] moogle62.livejournal.com 2009-01-05 11:30 pm (UTC)(link)
HURRAH! Thank you (and I hope so!)

I will be studying Classics! ♥ Er, can I ask you the same thing and also maybe where do you go to university oh dear this is totally something I should know halp halp fail?

[identity profile] miss-atom.livejournal.com 2009-01-06 04:11 pm (UTC)(link)
