My name is Livvy. I’m twenty years old. I live in England. I have 3 and a half a-levels and I currently make doughnuts for a living.
I started learning Japanese in 2009, and ever since I’ve been battling to get to university to study the language. Due to circumstances (mainly) beyond my control, I’m still not there, so I’m heading back to college for a year in order to get qualifications to get to university.
I’m sick and tired of waiting, so I’m back to self studying. There’s my language learning history, voila.In other areas of my life. I enjoy rabbits, Korean pop, Jeremy Kyle, wearing men’s clothing, dying my hair ridiculous colours, wearing really ostentatious hats, pop tarts, dogs dogs dogs lots of dogs, cute things, being cynical, being optimistic, trying to live like a Buddhist monk but ultimately, living like life’s going out of style.
Feel free to message me and chat, I do love people.
I live in England too. I also love K-pop, Jeremy Kyle, dying my hair ridiculous colours, dogs and cute things. :)
Welcome to TextFugu Livvy! Good luck learning Japanese.
Hi Livvy, welcome to TextFugu! Out of curiosity, what are a-levels? I’m assuming they’re some English thing I’m completely ignorant of :x
Good luck with your studies!
did you know there are no poptarts in japan… :(
@Hashi We finish high school at 16 here, then we can optionally go to college in order to get a-levels (like I have an a-level in politics, meaning I passed some exams – woo) and you can only get into university with a-levels :)
Japanese courses require high grades, which I didn’t get, hence why I’m off back to college :)@ビリー That’s okay, I live on imported pop tarts anyway, here we only get strawberry and chocolate flavours, and they’re only found in one supermarket. it’s incredibly upsetting. :’(
Nah, there’s a bunch of different ways to get into uni without A-Levels. You can even get into uni with no qualifications in some cases, my friend did that for a literature course.
