So I'm screwed

Hey guys sorry I've been gone for a while I hope you didn't miss me too much. This week was the half term and I did absolutely nothing so there wouldn't be anything to talk about, not that that's a valid excuse. I go back to school on Monday and I'm getting back on track so be expecting almost daily posts from me about how amazingly exciting and wonderful year 11 is. Well it is for those of you who loves tests, pressure, homework and LOTS of controlled assessments.


Anyway during this week I managed to laze around, watch TV and watch at least 6 movies but somehow I didn't manage to do any revision or pick up a book at all. It's so bad, especially when my mocks are in little over a month and to add to that I have my French speaking on Monday, which happens to be the first day back at school at 9:30. This is terrible news, literally life altering because I haven't completely revised for it and I know I'm not good enough at French to make up the answers on the spot. 


So I'm screwed just like the title says and I needed to get like an A in this to make up for the C I got in my writing last year, if I want any chance at getting an A in French overall. I was initially planning to revise it fully in registration on Monday morning but this may not have been the best of ideas since I am known to get distracted by my friends who surround me in form. 


However as I am not completely stupid as I did in fact learn at least half of my paragraphs before half term so I may just be able to wing this exam. The only thing that may pose as a problem is that I've learned my paragraphs but not how to speak them which is in fact the whole point of the exam. I think I shall have to have a word with the angels and beg them to help me pronounce the words correctly. 


I know what you may be thinking, you still have two more days left and it's only Saturday. So I guess I could use this time to revise so that I'll get the grade I want. But no... 
Being me and being stupid I will probably waste my time by watching stupid movies, like Superbad which is literally open in another tab right at this moment. I know myself so I know that there is no way in hell that I am getting anything productive done this weekend no matter how much I will myself to get out of bed and open my books.


You see I have this thing I like to call Holiday syndrome which means that before the holidays I am a perfectly normal person of average + intelligence but once the holidays start my brain turns to mush and even simple sentences start to not make much sense. This coupled with the fact that I am lazy and will do the least amount of work possible to get a good grade means that I either spend my holidays lazing around or completing one of themed holidays. (my themed holidays are when I decide what I'm going to spend my week doing that is either productive or fun so that I don't get bored. for example one holiday I spent it making artwork for my bedroom walls)


I would really like to say that know I'm going to revise my French but we all know that I won't. This is now a problem for Monday me to figure out. 

Till Tomorrow x.


P.S don't be like me, revise !!!!!!!!!!!! it will save you a lot of panic attacks

Why is science so uggh

I hate science. I hate it. Now I'm not the type of person to throw hates around everywhere but science really gets on my nerves. I just don't like it but because I'm in top set all my teachers are pressuring me into getting A* in the exam. Don't be fooled by the fact I'm in top set as I'm clearly the dumbest one in the class. At the moment most people are working at an A grade in my class while I'm working on a C. This just does wonders for my confidence you know. I don't know what it is about science that I just don't get considering I'm doing well in every other subject but in science I'm passing at least. You're probably wondering how I ended up in top set if I'm that bad but that is the question I've been asking myself since I first found out. The truth is that while I'm bad at science a lot of people are much much worse which is kinda bad considering I go to a really good school. I'm really trying hard to rev...

In a french speaking exam you need to know how to speak french

Hey guys I'm super sorry that my posts haven't been that consistent I've just been a little swamped by trying to start my revision for my mocks. On Monday I had my French speaking exam (the one I didn't prepare for) so I wanted to tell you how it went. Basically that day I was already quite sad that I was back at school but to make it worse I had an exam that I hadn't prepared for, that I couldn't just wing. I was so nervous about it that I was shaking while trying to get in some last minute revision. One of my friends was also doing her exam a little while after mine so we were both panicking and rambling about how nervous we were. I tried to cram in as much revision as I could until form time ended and it was time to go to maths so I was forced to put my notes away. Maths was soooooooo boring and I didn't understand what Sir was talking about so in a way I was happy to get out of there. My exam started at 9:30 but I left at 9:20 because the pl...

Need to know information for choosing A levels part 1

At my school we have a thing called a careers interviews which is where you talk to a lady about all the different options that you have post 16. I found this to be very interesting and helpful as it made some things a lot clearer. I thought I'd share some information about it in order to help any of you guys out there. 1. Most Universities want you have a facilitating subject. I'm sure most of you have heard this word being thrown around and this has got you into a panic because you think that you will have to take classes that you don't enjoy. Well this is completely not the case. The list of facilitating subjects are as follows: English literature  History  Modern Languages – e.g. French, German, Spanish etc…  Classical languages – e.g. Latin, Ancient Greek Maths & Further Maths  Physics Biology Geography Chemistry Russell group universities suggest that you take at least one if not more of these subjects because if you don't then there will ...
