Just read the UCAS personal statement I wrote when I applied for uni aged 18

barleysugar [Edit] [Delete] 12:45, 18 November '13

Didn't realise I still had it saved on my computer.

"Highlights of my time at high-school include ‘Outdoor Education Week’ were I went on a trip to the Lake District for a week, and a skiing trip to Italy in 2001. "

'were'. That's me aged 18. Not even a child.

"Outside of College I have taken part in a part-time job that involved the delivery of leaflets from the council to 10,000 houses, which unsurprisingly was a painstaking task. This particular job made me realise I have a lot of patience and determination; it was practically a full-time job for 2 weeks. "

Fuck.ing.hell.
