I hate all this horrible uncertainy. I hate all this this-one-and-that-one thoughts which mean that wherever I go, I'll be disappointed, because there will be something I'm missing out on. I hate it that I'm looking forwards to two mutually exclusive outcomes. I hate having to revise for exams I don't even know if I want to pass, but not being able to not revise because that would be making a choice, instead of just throwing the dice up in the air and seeing where they land.

I remember when I wasn't sure whether Cambridge would take me (when I'd have ended up at Essex and my life would largely have been different) having to plan about being in "a city beginning with C" but not knowing which one.

That's an intresting system ... most people look to see which number is face up when the dice lands. How would it work? Are you hoping if you through them far enough they'll land on Cambridge or York?
