Sorry for spamming your ask! But I just searched a little on loans. Look into Sallie Mae (Google Sallie Mae Student Loans for the link). They have loans for students studying abroad. :)

Wow. I am so sorry I took so long to reply! Thank you so much for looking this up for me! You’re too nice! :) I’ve decided to go to school here, do very well (hopefully) and get an overseas scholarship!. And then I could try transferring to a school overseas

are you going to the beatles: the lost concert" movie when it comes out next month?

To be honest I haven’t heard of that show, so thank you for letting me know about it! Yes, yes I would love to go! Why, do you wanna go together? ;)

Aw :( Well, if you’ve been accepted… Doesn’t that mean you can enroll for next fall and get everything set up by then? You wouldn’t get to go like NOW but you would get to go… Thank you!! :D We are very very excited hehe

I can’t, since I didn’t tick the option for deferred entry :/ I can re-apply though, but there’s no guarantee I’ll get in again next year. And also I don’t really know if I want to transfer, since I’ve pretty much planned what I want to do in the college I’m most likely going to here. SO when will we get to see the little one :) I don’t visit Tumblr that much anymore but I’ll definitely keep in touch with you!

mysmallcorneroflife replied to your post: I got offered a place to study at the University of Edinburgh!

Why can’t you get aid? Have you looked into those options?

I can’t, since all of the deadlines for international scholarships have passed (I only got the good new two days ago). I can’t even get a loan from the bank since they only allow study loans for studies at local universities. I guess it’s not the end of the world, but it would have been nice to live my dream. Oh and, congrats! I read your post about your pregnancy; so happy for you, dear! 

I got offered a place to study at the University of Edinburgh!

But my parents said that we can’t afford it. Great. My lifetime dream has been shattered. All my life, I’ve experienced many letdowns. This is natural, of course, it is part of the human condition. But why, WHY must I ALWAYS be denied a chance to fulfill my dreams because of financial problems?

Okay, I’m not an unhappy person. I’ve even managed to combat depression (almost entirely) by myself. But I think I’ve had one too many swigs of bad luck, and I can take no more. All I ever wanted was a chance to study in the UK, and this chance was taken away faster than it was given. What did I do to deserve this? Surely I have the right to fulfill my dreams? I guess not. I think I’m just not meant to be happy in this life. Maybe I was a serial killer in a previous life.

I used to believe in my dreams, and I did do whatever I could to make my dreams come true, but now I understand; dreams are just a myth after all, and hope is as thin as the air in Nepal. No matter how hard I work, something will always stand between me and my happiness. I guess I’d better go hide under my blanket and hope to live another day. Or not.

Hey Jenny :) I don’t know, actually. I mean I want to, but then every time I come online I get distracted and watch The Simpsons instead! I haven’t been writing much either, though I have so many ideas floating around my in my mind. And I’m a production assistant to a photographer, so I have to work. I really miss you guys :( How have you been?

I'm at UCL, It's a fantastic uni, if a little too demanding on its students, but I wish you the best of luck with your application, I hope you get in.
Asketh - august-is-over

Oh wow! Ah it’s expected I guess, being one of the top unis in the UK! But I’ll bet it’s worth it. Thank you so much! If you don’t mind me asking, are you from the UK, or are you an international student? I am not from the UK, and I have never been there (sobsob) so I’m quite nervous about the whole studying abroad issue. :S

salsa with ME! hehehehe

YESSSS can’t wait! I’m gonna sign up this week :) Need to start choosing clothes to wear, too!

Just an update, for those who care :D

SO! It’s been so long since I’ve formally posted here. I have kinda forgotten how to blog, even. But never mind that! I am currently working on…

  • My university application to University College London (UCL), and several other schools with names I am too lazy to type out. This application is proving to be a pain in the ass
  • Writing….something. All I can say for now is that it has some relation to the novel ‘The Woman In Black’. No, nothing about Daniel Radcliffe, surprise, surprise.
  • Cross stitch!!!! And 3 of them! Will post pictures when I’m done. 
  • Making my plush toy cat. Will also post pictures if  it is cute.
  • Looking for kittens. Will also post pictures if I actually convince the parents to let me get one.
  • Learning to dance the Salsa. Nope, no pictures. 
  • Cutting and pasting (coloured) paper onto other sheets of (white) paper. Also known as quilling.
  • Reading the 40 or so books on my bookshelf that have been waiting to be read since the start of this year.
  • Finding the motivation to lose that annoying weight I gained while studying for the A level exams. Now that is stubborn fat! 
  • Starting my writing course, which has been on hold for 2 years. I blame school, of course.

So there you go! How are you guys gonna spend December? :)

mysmallcorneroflife replied to your post: I’m back!!!!

OMG I MISSED YOU!!!! :D! IM SO GLAD YOURE BACK!

BECCA HOW I MISSED YOU TOO!!!! It’s been so long! It feels so good to be back! Though I won’t be posting new material anymore (maybe once in a while, because I’m going to be very busy these next few months with my numerous projects and writing), so I’ll just be socializing and scrolling :) How has life been, my dear? And how is your adorable dog? :D And how are the baby plans coming along? 

December 1st, 2011

I’m back!!!!

The exams are over, finally. I don’t think my results would be spectacular, but who cares?! I have an 8 month long break!!!

Just popping by to say hi

Hello there, my dear friends! Just wanted to say that I miss you all and your lovely words (& graphics, to all you brilliant Potterheads :)) I’m almost done with school, just 50 days till the A level exams are upon us! I am by no means prepared, but I am…..mysteriously excited. I probably won’t be on until the 1st of December, but I couldn’t resist hanging out for a while here :) How’s everyone doing?
