b) it makes you look cool.

I really hope you're joking...

It might also be a good idea in the future to try and take some holiday time, even if you don't actually go anywhere. I know it's not always easy to take time off, and the thought of coming back and catching up can be stressful, but it's not healthy to go two years without a decent break... Hope you...

I'm interested in hearing from the people who said no...

Quoting ewan husami from 15:15, 5th Sep 2008 The same people are in the plays because the same people go for auditions. Everyone's welcome to get stuck in - it's up to you to make the most of it. Mermaids IS inclusive - Mermaids is the funding body which helps independent production groups put on t...

I voted yes - if you remove people's rights, it's not only easier to see them as not human, but for them to see themselves that way. Also, what justice is there in imprisoning people in a system that they cannot affect? RE: educated-only voting. Define educated - to what level? Only certain establis...

Oh dear, another one with multiple suggestions: No-one can give you courage No-one can thicken your skin (Last 5 Years: 'If I didn't believe in you') Ring the bells that still can ring Forget your perfect offering There is a crack, a crack in everything That's how the light gets in (Leonard Cohen: '...

I'm with Lid thinking it was Dot Cotton....

And I don't even watch Eastenders.

Thanks for all the advice, guys - it's useful to get some perspective on it all. I think for the moment I'll play it by ear and see how things go once we're both settled again...

Ok. So, have just graduated and left St Andrews for the south of England. Now have met a guy through a friend at whose wedding we got really close and slept together (but only slept, too tired/drunk/amongst company for anything to happen) except he lives in Warwick/Edinburgh. Have been bantering awa...

On the 'positive' side, you're still young enough that if it all goes tits up you could probably get back into another career...

Am not even going to attempt to enter the debate. This is a reply to whoever created the 'Epicurus' poster thing. Epicurus was an ancient Greek philosopher (i.e. 4th/3rd centuries BC), so technically atheists have been "winning" since the 200s BC. Unless you're referring to people like Lucretius, wh...

You have my sympathy - it's a horrible situation as a director, with everything else you have to worry about, having an unco-operative actor to deal with. The advice I would give is: 1. Sit the guy down and really underline the problems you're having. Don't let him turn it into a joke, or make empty...

Well surely there was something that made you apply for graduating status in the first place? St Andrews is like no other uni that I have ever visited. It's diverse, it's claustrophobic, it's quiet, it's tourist-y, it's cold, it's in the middle of nowhere, it's BEAUTIFUL, it doesn't quite work, it's...

LOL cheers

I want tomorrow to come now...I'm still not certain what my degree will be, although I assume a 2:1

Mean: 16.08
Median: 16.45 (!!)

Will they round this up or down?
Will it matter?

No worries - good luck with it all and feel free to message me if I can help

Probably the most helpful thing you can have in an audition is another set of eyes and ears with a good knowledge of what you're looking for - an assistant director, stage manager or just helpful friend is a good idea. Drama activities: - a good warm up is essential, not only does it get everyone re...

you could also look into volunteering in your local community for bonus 'karma points'...

Possibly not the most exciting thing, but I spent one summer getting a recognised IT qualification from a local community college, while also working pretty much full time. Since I spend most of my time working with computers it wasn't terribly difficult, but might open a few more doors... Maybe you...
