The Sanctuary


Rubrica

Recommended Posts

Doctor Who, Series 3 is HERE!! :-D

 

The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior... A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. The most feared being in all the cosmos. And nothing could stop it, or hold it, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.
Amy: But how did it end up in there?
The Doctor: You know fairy tales. A good wizard tricked it.
River Song: I hate good wizards in fairy tales; they always turn out to be him.

"Pray Tell" just means "Explain Further, I'm Curious."

Not good or bad. :-)

Awesome! Sounds like you're setting yourself up for a great academic career. Do you get university credits for it?

(Also, I think I liked your av better without the light rays.)

Perhaps my happiness will increase if you edit the topic title to something I could translate...
:?: Teh Pwnful Board of Happiness :?:

Yeah, I was in one of my odd stages when I posted this thread. The translation is "The Ownful Board of Happiness". Any ideas for new names?

Translation: The Goodwill Board, I believe...

Do you get university credits for it?
1) I don't even know what you're talking about.

Our equivalent would be UCAS points, although I'm doubtful you would get them for the activity you are doing, as these points are only gained via post-GCSE qualifications. However, mentioning this participation on your application may go much further than you think; this shows dedication and wilfulness to further your education.

Some universities accept these points rather than/as alternatives to/as well as the hard-core grades. Universities ask for certain grades; Oxford, for example, require three A grades at A-level or equivalent, some on the other hand require different combinations dependant on applied course and university. Now, with the universities which accept UCAS points it may be easier to gain entrance, for instance:

A uni requires for your course B-B-C at A-level or a minimum of 280 points. Unfortunately you only achieve C-C-A, therefore failing the entry requirements (as you have two C grades), but the equivalent points for your grades place you at the minimum score of 280 and legible for entry. See? You failed but can still apply.

Anyway, that's what I've been told. And the tangent is back on topic.

By the way, yes, david was right, 'pray tell' is rather archaic for 'please, tell' or 'please elaborate'.

EDITED: I can't type or string a sentence together lately. Not cool. Removed unnecessary words.

No need to apologise, you didn't know. Plus, it's not like 'UCAS points' has any literary likeness to 'college credits'. It's a bit like the Pleasantville Effect - who would think to search for that when wanting to achieve that result...

:D

Me, but I've seen the movie...but I get your point. :-)

No, I was really more apologi(z/s)ing to Rubrica, whose comment confused me greatly.

I'm playing guitar hero III! That makes me pwnfully happy in the sanctuary.
