Results, uni and a cat

Last year I applied to Lancaster Uni to do a music degree. On Thursday as many people know was results day for the A-levels. I nervously headed down to school to pick them up. I got to the hall and very nervously opened my envelope, to discover that my results were

Music - C
English Language - C
Biology - C (?!)

I was very pleased with these results. A bit gutted that I was only 4 marks off a B in music, but ecstatic that I got a C in Biology! And it was enough to get into my uni! So, as any crazy person might do, I promptly phoned them up and cancelled my application. Insane? Yes. But with good reason. I applied to music knowing I was pretty good at it, I enjoyed it, and didn't know what else to do. In the last 2 months, I've found what I do want to do. Nursing! Quite a difference, yes. So I'm gonna apply to do a nursing degree. I'm not sure which uni to go to, but I'll figure that out soon hopefully! Some choices are Liverpool, Manchester, Lancaster, or Northumbria, which is in Newcastle. I want to go away though. The good thing about a nursing degree is that its NHS bursary, so I get my fees paid for me. Thats very nice of them isn't it! So we'll see what happens.

Still no visa for Colombia. I'm going to London in a few weeks and so will go to the embassy and get one there. That'll mean I dont have to send my passport in the post, and I will be able to leave London with a visa (hopefully!) I'd really appreciate prayers for this, because its been really stressing me out recently. A visa is a very important thing when you want to go to a country for more than 90 days.

Me and my brother have been house/cat sitting for my uncle the last week. hasn't been bad, its quite fun having a short time of independence. I've discovered that I really need to learn how to cook, because for the first 4 days I didn't eat very well at all! Partly coz the bread was mouldy which didn't help, but I still had no imagination to come up with anything else.

So, that's all for now! I'm gonna go clean church and then finish watching the rest of the Lord of the Rings trilogy which we started yesterday, got half way through, so are gonna hopefully finish it tonight!
