really incredibly pointless self-celebration
You can move right along if you so desire; this is just a little marker for myself, to prove that all the stress and hard work and insane nights spend studying and doing homework were worth it. And yes, it's just a number, and it will mean nothing in a few months time, but just for now? I'm going to feel warm and glowy and accomplished.
My UAI*: 99.90
I can get into the course I want to. I have a decent shot at a scholarship. I missed being Dux by 0.05.
Bizarre randomosity that will make no sense to anyone not at my school: maths was my least counted subject. AME. The one that scales crazily high. The one that I poured my soul into and was my top two marks when working out my guestimates.
This system is weird.
But anyway - I'm happy, Mal is walking around naked on my celebratory icon, and thus the world is a shiny place.
* For Americans and other aliens, to quote Pterry - Universities Admission Index. Each uni course has a minimum entrance score required to get in. It's basically all of my marks for the past two years tweaked and twisted and compared to charts and put on a ranking list and somehow represented as a number from 1-100. Though I think if you get less than 30 they just say '30', to be nice.

You beat the top in our school by 2.5. So much smarter.

Uh...next year...probably stuck working somewhere full time. I may have been an idiot and given up on the whole doing any work thing about halfway through year twelve. Possibly not the best idea. >.<
What're you going to get up to?
Am on such a Brian/Justin kick at the moment. Fic, pictures, anything. How I love Queer as Folk.

I loved that last episode - although I missed the last five minutes of the previous one, so all the surgery talk was kind of confusing for a while.

Hey Fra- was it my imagination or did you wirte a short 'library scene' of Aurthurian legends (Mordred + Galahad) quite a while ago?
It could jsut have been me, it's a very vauge memory.
But if you have one, could you post a link to it on my LJ? It'll bring me inspiration. Danke.
