Happy

There has been so much going on recently! In my Prelims the officialised marks were Maths - B, French - A, History - B and Religion, Morality and Philosophical Studies - A*. I am very pleased. Plus, I did my violin exam and I got a Merit which I was not expecting at all. Last Friday I felt the happiest I have ever been in my life. I had done well in my exams and I had the anticipation of seeing my boyfriend that night after dance class. It was perfect. This was followed by a blissful weekend at my boyfriend's and then we went to my Gran's for her 77th Birthday and it was the first time my boyfriend had met my Grandparents. It was lovely! I went home and did some school work and went to bed with a smile on my face.

However, this year, they have decided to take away appeals for exams which means that my grades that I have from my Prelims don't actually mean anything. Still, I am very happy and I feel rewarded that I did well. Then, when I thought nothing could get any better, on Monday evening, I opened my email to say that my University application tracking system had changed. I signed in and low and behold, I have an offer. I have conditional offer for Primary Education! To one of the world's leading Universities! I could hardly believe it. I had to ask my sister to tell me I was definitely seeing what I was seeing. I phoned my mother in tears and then told my boyfriend about it and he said that he was "so proud" of me! Uh! I am so happy at the moment! Not many other people know and I don't plan on telling anyone unless they ask as I know how unsettling it is to not have any offers and not knowing where they will be in a few months so I am keeping it on the down low. My condition is that I have to obtain 1 Grade B at any of my current Highers and I am feeling positive from my Prelim results.

My boyfriend and I are going to wait until we have all out replies from the Universities that we have applied to and then weigh our options on where, as individuals, would most like to go and then, if we have to, compromise. Our hope is that we go to the same University and live together.
