I have too many remote controls. Note to self: it is not possible to turn the radio volume up with the TV remote.
I'm playing the results waiting game. I decided I'd rather see them on a bit of paper with my marks breakdown, than just be told the bracket. However this means looking out the window every minute to see if the post lady's here yet. All I'm waiting for is confirmation of the sorry grade that - although I deserve it - doesn't reflect my ability. If one thing's for sure, I've learned a lot from this. Nobody failed me, I failed myself. I'm never going to do that again. I spent all of my school years riding through on luck alone. Well luck runs out.
The comforting thing is that I have a plan. The next year of my life is planned with precision. And if I use this opportunity in the way I should have used my university opportunity, great things could come of it.
And if, despite the incredible work experience I'm about to get, no one will employ me in a year's time, I'll just have to educate myself further. I suppose it's time to find out just how much a number on a piece of paper means to other people.
