General Grumbles

"ooo yay! this person and that person got into CAMBRIDGE! WOOOOT!" Fuck that shit. Cambridge is for the people who were 'cool' enough to have practically no lives in high school - you know the one's i mean. The people who sat at home on a Friday night, while everyone was out having fun, and did their homework. Let me tell you something... It is those people who will have practically no lives in university. At least, I hope so... Okay, the real reason for this complaint? Though I did not apply to Cambridge at all, therefore they were unable to reject me from their 'highly commended' establishment, I also did not manage to scrape the grades to get into the universities or courses that I did apply for.
Everyone says to me, "apply for something through Clearing!"
What, exactly, do they think I have been doing for the past 5 days?! I have been searching and searching for something for me to do, and have come up with nothing. The courses in Clearing are not courses that people, like me, who have not got that good grades, can apply for. They are courses that no one else wanted to do. Reject courses. This could be good. However, I have seen a reccurring pattern in these courses. They all have just as high entry requirements as the courses I just got rejected from. Funny that. It's almost like they don't want me in their universities. They're just taking the utter piss. And it is not funny. I'm being practically tortured by my parentals as they make me desperately look at courses that I either don't like, or can't get into anyway. Or both. Oh, and not to mention the fact that I am currently living in one of the world's most monotonous places. That's right, kids! The Isle of Skye. Population: approx. 9,300. Percentage of population over 50 years of age: 90%. Percentage of teenagers: approx. 5%. Percentage of Skye inhabited by sheep: 96%
Do not take these figures as fact (except the actual population), but believe me, if you come here, you will believe these figures to be reality.

I think I'm quite done complaining for today. I'll come back when I have something else to talk about. :) Ciao for now.
