Hello Dom, so sweet of you to be willing to help :)

I think I was more or less set on leaving the last time we met. The only point of contention was where! Well, the status quo seems to have changed :/ Now NUS is most probably going to offer me a place in arts, and I just feel bad about making my parents spend that exorbitant amount of money to send me overseas. But then again, I've always wanted to do law... but at the same time I am not sure if this last minute offer for NUS arts is God's way of telling me to stay? But!!! I have always wanted to do law and I think there is a reason why we have certain passions and those could be God-given.

Ultimately, I think I will go with law... I think. Because I might still wonder what it would have been like to do a BA because i do love humanities and all, but I think if I do a BA I will probably regret not ever doing an LLB :(

If I do go it looks like Warwick for now for a year, and then I'll start law school at Warwick/Notts (fingers crossed?) next September. There is a likelihood that Liverpool might give me a place in law but I don't think it's the best place for law so we'll see. If I go to liverpool we may never be friends again because of the ongoing football rivalry!!! Haha.

Thanks Dom, what a lengthy reply this is.. I hope you read it and don't feel bored to death already!

Well you know, we always kept on talking about post graduate degrees and I think that there's always the oppurtunity to go back to study again. Cos like you, I'm also quite keen on business and being a banker because I would love to do investment banking as well but I figure that we *can* do it all, eventually.

And on the more practical side, entering a profession in which salaries are quite high means the oppurtunities for furthering your studies won't be such a burden later on, as opposed to arts. This is all very 'money minded' but that's an important factor to me, it may not be to you but I hope you make a choice that makes you happy :)

It'll be so great if you go to the UK, even though we won't be that near each other and you know, being near Manchester United is really wasted on me; I'd be hard pressed to name you any other players besides Micheal Owen and David Beckham and Wayne Rooney haha. And all those I know only because of tabloid scandals.

you forgot cristiano ronaldo man. at least i think that's his name!

i agree dom, that's a real encouragement :) i do have to make plans for perhaps a postgrad degree, that's true. at the same time i think it's a good thing because i feel very obliged to pay my parents back for what they invested on me? because i really want them to finally retire comfortably and enjoy life without the financial burden and the worry for their silly daughter with an occasional rebellious streak some 6000-odd miles away from home!

and yes, as long as we are in the uk at least we can visit each other monthly or fortnightly. i guess it's a comforting thought just knowing we're all around :) and we should really go catch a soccer game sometime. seriously!
