3 weeks to go…

… I think. I should probably check, but I think it’s 3 weeks to the day until A-Level results are out.

To many people, it will just be a formality, having already received unconditional offers, or just from actually being smart and doing revision. For people like me, results day could go either way by a narrow margin. Who knows maybe I’m somehow one of those few who pulled an amazing grade out of their arse despite doing mediocre throughout the year.

Not likely.

If I do somehow manage to scrape 280 UCAS points from god-knows-where, then that means I’ll be off to Aberystwyth to study Computer Science & AI, whilst working a job on the side, as well as my doing work as Deputy Campaigns Officer and Governor for Pirate Party UK – Although thanks to SLC that should perhaps be “I’ll be off to Aberystwyth to work whilst studying on the side”, since they’ve managed to screw up my loans application, meaning I can’t even afford accommodation.

All that aside, studying Artificial Intelligence at Aberystwyth will be amazing, as they are at the forefront of research into robotics, and artificial intelligence. The university’s work on projects like ExoMars is what drew me to apply, all the other things like the scenery are just a bonus.

And if I don’t get in, I’ll instead be moving to a nowhere 6 miles north of the nowhere in which I currently live, and working there instead.

Oh well.
