i want to write award winning screenplays
and novels from my balcony in the caribbean. please.

you should come and write them with me.

i am proud of myself for my creative writing masters results, esp as i did it alongside my job. and my nephew got man of the match in his rugby match on sat, which was cute.

muchas gracias!
still wondering whether to appeal the distinction - to miss it by 0.4% has gutted me a bit!

I missed getting a first by two points when I did my degree.
Most people would be gutted by this but considering I did my course at a time of really major upheaval in my life I was as chuffed as a dog with two cocks. I expected much less.

my first degree was the same
but i was an english student, i did fuck-all work and missed a first by about 1%. my 2 best mates, who did law and clinical sciences, worked like a pair of bitches all year, and i still beat them. when i whined about just missing a first, i thought they were actually going to kill me. kill me dead!
