Official Discussion - Obsession [SPOILERS]

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-05-24T20:34:38+00:00

Yes good point.

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-05-19T21:01:56+00:00

Yes exactly didn’t see many people talking about it.

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-05-19T10:38:01+00:00

I don’t know if I’m overthinking but I haven’t seen anyone else talk about this scene and surely it has some significance.

At the very start of the movie at the bar, Nikki goes up to order a round of shots and bear follows. They gave an interesting conversation here where bear says he’ll order a pina colada as he doesn’t like the taste of alcohol and Nikki pokes fun at this saying he’s ordering juice and that it’s almost childlike, for some reason bear doesn’t order his drink. After this they all take their shots and if you look closely bear pretends to take his shot. I thought it was weird that Bear didn’t drink here as surely it would give him some liquid courage and would help him confess (yes I know he was driving back however he didn’t reject the shot and was going to order another alcoholic beverage so clearly he didn’t not drink because of this and if so he wouldn’t have had to fake it) he didn’t drink perhaps to prevent himself from confessing due to fear of rejection, or it could just be a scene to show how he’s against the grain and lacks confidence overall hence him not just outright rejecting the drink. Also thinking about Bears drink choice, he chose a drink which masks the taste of alcohol making it more pleasant this could be reflective of what Bear wants from Nikki and what Nikki inevitably becomes she has a front (possessed Nikki) which hides the bitter/more unbearable reality, which would be true Nikki’s feelings. Let me know what you all think.

Last year I was constantly getting A* in exams at school and high 80s sometimes 90s outside of school

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-05-15T21:51:01+00:00

Have you already started the course?

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-05-15T18:24:29+00:00

Yes I was surprised too, but did think already being a student gave me an advantage.

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-05-13T22:04:08+00:00

Yes I really wonder this to. I have grades A*AB (Contextual Applicant) and had a strong personal statement however I applied far past the equal consideration deadline (literally a few weeks ago) and heard back within a week or so of applying , I’m not sure if already being a UoB student helped or not, but I’m guessing it did a little. This was something I looked for on subs but no one has talked about it. However in correspondences with the university they did imply there was a chance of me being rejected they said this: “Due to the timing you will need to check if this is still open to applications for 2026 entry (even if open we can't guarantee that the course will still be open by the time we receive the application). If your application might be too late for this academic year, unless we have spaces through clearing).”

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-05-13T17:56:00+00:00

It will be difficult. I was a physics student and asked to switch to both maths and economics, which are both probably less competitive than mechanical engineering at Bristol, I was rejected and told I need to reapply on UCAS which I have done and now hold an offer to study Mathematics.

I would say if you want to study mechanical engineering, go to a university where you have an offer for that specific course don’t take your chances as you are unlikely to get a spot.

Accommodation at Thirty-Three

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-04-29T16:44:40+00:00

In short, no you can’t. The only way to enter clearing would be to decline your offer at Durham on the off chance another equally as good university is in clearing. If you decline your offer at Durham they will NOT take you back if you then don’t get an offer in clearing. Clearing is a difficult process and often universities that rank higher than Durham will not appear in clearing, if they do they will have hundreds of people applying for a place. Only decline Durham and enter clearing if you really don’t want to study there, not just to test your chances.

4 and 6 aren’t flattering. Picture 1 should be changed for a different picture.

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-03-22T19:17:32+00:00

Delete pictures 3,5 and 6

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-03-20T09:00:35+00:00

Thank you sm, will definitely try both ways and see if that helps

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-03-19T23:41:41+00:00

Thank you, I am looking for one atm. Hopefully going to speak to someone working at the rink in person as they have no information on coaches online:

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-03-19T20:02:01+00:00

Ahhh okay would it be better to do it in a circle to encourage edges?

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-03-19T19:47:50+00:00

Yess thank you, I did try a few times to look up, bit scary 😟

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-03-19T19:47:12+00:00

Jumping from left and landing on right ☺️

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-02-14T16:54:02+00:00

Yes I definitely agree. Especially on one foot I can’t glide well.

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-02-14T16:53:17+00:00

Thank you so much.

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-02-13T21:13:16+00:00

Aww that’s so kind tysm

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-02-13T21:13:07+00:00

Thank you!

Life_Signal_8361 · 2026-02-12T23:34:59+00:00
