 Well done. My achievement- my teacher liked my creative writing piece enough to make me submit it for this competition at school. Rereading it, I find that it is terrible but I guess it must be okay if she liked it. |

Because of a single post I made at a certain forum, a multi-million dollar company made a strategic move, the effect of which has been noticed by at least hundreds of thousands of South Africans. Now that's an accomplishment.
 More like a monumental F%&$up, but hey.  |

*Gives huge bare hug*
But you seemed depressed at your inability to understand my intent. So....do you think I should kiss it better? |

It can be whatever type of hug you want. But that time it was bare.
Yeah, we were hugging, but an innocent kiss here and there (and everywhere) won't do any harm. But this time I change my mind and deny you the option.  |

I've too happy for the happy thread, and I guess this is an accomplishment...
I got my exam results - exactly what I needed to go to Oxford. Evil exam system kept me waiting eight months between offer and results... but never mind. I got full marks in five of my English Literature papers too so at least I know I'm doing the right subject! I'm staring in disbelief at these beautiful words on the UCAS website: Quote:
