Always an advantage to get money when you're skint! I guess it kinda sucks financially being a student at the moment due to Labour's lovely 'top-up fees' initiative, hopefully I can save up enough money now by working my ass off so that I can survive at uni when I go later this year.

Anyway, enough of my ranting, there was a couple of things I forgot to mention on the subject of Christmas presents. 2 things in particular that I can't believe I forgot to say on a metal forum. Wiggy (my brother) got me the tab book for 'Train of thought' by Dream Theater, which is awesome, I've tried to learn some bits of Stream of Consciousness, but of course all the solos are somewhat out of my league! Also, on 6th January I went to see my Wiggy's band, 'Fluorescent Black', play a gig in town (OK, not really a Christmas present strictly speaking, but kind of, since it was 6th January and some people get Christmas presents on Epiphany! At least that's my excuse for bringing it up :p) and they were great!

hahaha but at least the advantage i have is being a student in Wales where the Welsh Assembly have prevented the top-up for at least the next 2 years ;) tis all good!! lol nevertheless i am fucking skint!! loan went in today finally which means a few extra pennies for myself:headbang:

where and what are you planning on studying?
 
I shall be studying Physics, hopefully at Durham (since Oxford are bastards and rejected me) but if not then probably Leeds. I was considering Swansea (lovely campus, fantastic location - right on the sea front!) but in the end I think Leeds was slightly better. It has been really hard to decide on my insurance - I've still yet to have my interview at Manchester so I can only be sure once I've had a look there and had my offer from them, but I think it will probably be Leeds. Hopefully I'll get 3 As and go to Durham so it won't matter so much!

So what about you?

Lol, I hope the mods don't mind us cluttering up their topics with spam...

HAHAHAH education=spam! wooo

i study law and german at cardiff uni, loads of deadlines, lack of a social life for the next month but its all good!! i LOVE it here!! i'm originally from about 20mins away west of Swansea and to be honest with you, Durham probably is best 'cause bar Crowleys rock bar and sometimes the office (and face/off for metal posers) there's really not much of a nightlife there unless you're into dance! best of luck with applications, i remember how much of an ass UCAS was!!
 
Politics... Is one of the best albums of all time IMO, definately Nevermores best album.
Its seriously close to perfect!
