Guess who's back? Back again.
Oct. 21st, 2010 09:12 amCollege again, this time working on Personal Statement. It's a lot harder to sing one's own praises than it is to self-depreicate, oddly.
I reeeeeeeeeeeeally hate UCAS, I should have listened to Imi when she warned us two years prior that it was a bitch.... orz;;
On the bright side we've managed to tame the internet's fail down to a manageable turns-off-randomly-once-a-day, rather than doesn't-work-ever.
On the un-bright side I managed to forget that UCAS application work day is on Friday not Thursday, so I'm here for very little reason. I mean, I'll still work on my personal statement but... orz;; so much fail what is my life.
I think the worst thing about it might be trying to get it up to the 4000 character limit but not over it, if you see what I mean. The little bar at the bottom of the screen only tells you how many words you're writing, not characters. I keep getting 100 under or 50 over and it's frustrating trying to keep it coherent but within limits.
Also there are faeries all over my notes and I blame Cande.
