Got my statements of entry for my AS exams, ahhhh Im so nervous
What exams are you taking Abbie and when?
My first exam is my Drama practical exam on March 17th - I think we're doing domestic abuse for our play ... my whole Drama class is so bitchy though, I am really tempted to drop it after AS. We have two groups, and I really like my group, but the other group are afraid we are going to "nick" their ideas. :rolleyes: and whispers around us, and talks behind our backs etc - it's so competitive, and it's getting rather boring.
I got my statement a few weeks ago. I've got four resits and four A2 exams. I'm feeling ok about mechanics. Looking at my revision posters there's not really much to revise and it seems easier than it did last year. It's just a case of applying it in the right context. I still don't understand how to draw and resolve vectors though.
I'm running out of wall space, half of my room is already covered in physics and I've got another unit to put up later.
Rubbish day. I got my coursework back from my biology teacher, he said there's not much to do. Yeah right, only two and a half pages of ammendments to make. Ammendments that I made last time that he told me to and now he's saying its wrong. Again. :angry: He's really patronising at the moment, I'm not sure if its intentional but its getting on my nerves.
My niece is coming tomorrow for the weekend which should be good. Last time she came we both laid in bed watching "Happy Potter" as she calls it on a night and she was telling me all about Harry and the monsters (dementors), his stick (wand) and the nasty man (voldemort). It was quite funny the way she was simplifying things.
I have biology on the 9th of Jan and geography on 14th jan
I have economics next wednesday and three more asignements still to do. Argh!!!!
Although its the chrstmas ball on tuesday so i am looking forward to that.
Had a pretty good day. My physics teacher has recommended our class to take part in a enterprise thing. We have to think of an idea to make the world a better place environmentally then these experts get involved from all over the world. Last month three scientists from NASA and a student came over from America to help some students with their idea. Its a trial in our area and if its successful it will go nationwide as a competition next year.
Ohh we had that a few months back. A few classes did some presentations to some lecturers who were going to pick 1 group overall from the college to go into the competition. My group won in our class, but we didn't want to go forward for the next stage of being picked :p. Was just a bit of fun really.
Had an ok day. I found out that one of the people I knew in my year has been sent to prison though for armed robbery. He robbed a local petrol station, holding everyone at gunpoint. He's facing quite a few years in prison and I can't believe it. I used to speak to him in school and everything! I never knew he was capable of such a thing!
Lea don't let this stupid girl get to you. Keep your chin up doll she's not worth worrying over.
My day has been okay I'm just really tired, as I have to take Marley to her pantomine nearly all week. She has done three performances this week already and there is two tomorrow. We won't get home until 10 tomorrow night. I can't wait until Sunday were I can get a long-lie in.
Today was good, I rescued the mouse that had been hiding in the kitchen all night (hazard of having cats :rolleyes:) the trains were cancelled and delayed from my station, so I got the bus, I was late to my review day appointment which was a pain but my tutor wasn't mad thankfully :p
Went to see T4 Mobile Act Unsigned tonight, which was pretty good, apart from all the standing around when they rearranged the set etc. The band everyone liked got through, and Alex Zane is actually quite cute :p My back and arms ache though, clapping in the air and jumping around for four hours is tiring :o
I am 1 essay down and 3 to go. I am dreading next week when these assignments are due. There are far too many distractions.
My day has been quite good today.
I was worried that I wouldn't find much Christmas shopping, but I think I've done most of it! Once I got started I couldn't stop :p Althought to be fair most of it is crap :p but ah well!
Quite annoyed though 'cause Jamie Owen and Derek Brockway were in a place near-ish me signing their books (where I went shopping), and my mum loves Derek (as do I), and if I had known before I could have got her a book signed! But I missed them at the shop :(. I was 20 minutes late!! Grr.
My uncle got pulled over by the police today haha. He overtook dangerously, and was slightly speeding. I hate the way he drives, it's well scary :p. I was glad the police pulled him over tbh, 'cause he learnt his lesson. :p. They only gave him a caution though luckily. He was quite nice for a cop :p.
I've been revising again, and I can actually concentrate on it now because I only have 1 day left before study leave (where some people will be in exams for Photography and 3D Art, so I won't get any homework.) Given myself a headache for the second day in a row, and I've barely started on Science, which I hate. Maths on Thursday is the first one, great. I hate my teacher and I'll do anything rather than ask for his help so I dread to think what I'll get. So much to remember for History, as well.
Other than that I've been visiting my gran quite a lot.
We haven't done a lot of christmas shopping. The attempt last week ended in me spending about £50 on myself! I don't think we've got even one person done completely.
My cousin got pulled over a few weeks ago, as well. I don't remember what it was for, because nothing he does in a car will surprise me. He must have smashed up at least three.

my mate got pulled over the other day as well, she was bricking it but then they told her her lights wernt on. She was scared over nothing. It is better to be cautous this tie of year though.
We havechristmas songs blasting out a CD player down the hall. I am still essay writing, but went out last night which was a laugh, stayed till losing in a bar called ras cals, who spnser the football team and therfore loads of the footy girls were out, then we went to the chippy and walked home at 3 this morning. IT was a great nght, though i am glad i went out. Although most of my hall are sleeping it off now but i have far too uch work.
Shame about Ricky Hatton, but he lasted ten rounds so i am really shuffed for him, he gave a good fight i hear.
Had an ok day. My friend split up with his girlfriend of 2 years today though, so I went out with him for a while and offered him a bit of comfort. He actually seemed really upset ( I think he was in love with her ) and he said he wanted to drink to forget it all - seems a bit depressed, but hoping he gets over it!
I bought a sixthform Christmas Ball ticket today, so will be going to that next Tuesday night - I am looking forward to it! :cheer: Hoping not to get too drunk like last time though!
I went Christmas shopping today, spent loads of money. Spending tomorrow fighting with wrapping paper and cellotape :rotfl:
noooooooooooooo Im getting another cold :( This is so unfair
My day was really short
I have helped a lot of people recently with the Apple Cider Vinegar in warm water remedy, they have been amazed how quickly the cold went away again. Try it, hun, can't do no harm.:)Quote:

I have managed to avoid one so far, dont know how the amount of times i have stood outside Tescos in the freezing cold playing christmas carols.
I have my christmas ball tonight, i have to wear a dress.
Well Today I Wasn't In School.
But I Phoned My Friend About The School Having Had A Fire Which Was A Hoax! What A Waste Of Time For The Firefighters! But Yeah, She Went Up Abbeyview At Lunch And Lindsay Hood, Said Our Locker Had Been Broken In To, Not That Anything's Been Taken But Seriously It Shouldn't Of Happend. I Am Soo Annoyed Now:angry: That School's Went Down Hill Ever Since Mr Grant Left.
We're Getting A New Rector As Of The Start Of The Next Term And There's A Rumor Going Around That Apparently He's Going To Make Us Wear A Skirt (I've Never Worn A Skirt To School!), Long Green Socks (Our School Tie Is Blue), No Make - Up. Hair Has To Be Up In A Pony Tail All The Time. Now I Know There Are School's That Do Have Stuff Like That. But We've Never Had To Do That. And I Don't Really Appreciate Wearing A Skirt In The Winter!
Headmasters get so annoying. We're now banned from taking Jane Norman bags to school, which is exactly what mine is. The headmaster knows absolutely nothing about fashion and even went up to the attendance officer and asked if there was a student by the name of Jane Norman on roll( :lol: ), and there isn't. So he's now banned them, because apparently it's scruffy and shows no individuality. The school uniform doesn't do that, so why bother with individuality? I thought the point of a school uniform was so that no one is any different to reduce the amount of bullying, in theory, anyway. I don't see him complaining about the numerous people with different designs of Quicksilver bags, when the girls that had Jane Norman bags all had different designs too.
I think I'm just going to take mine and position it so the design is away from him when he walks past me, because I'm on Study Leave now and have no more lessons until January, then I leave in May, and they're allowed in Sixth Form. He's only doing it because his mate said the place was a dump and looked like it had no school rules, and because we have to have Ofsted a year early because they're getting 2 more specialist statusses in 3 days.
We're getting a new head in January. I've seen a picture in the paper, she seems OK. I guess we shall have to wait and see what she's really like. I asked my business teacher if he'd spoken to her and he said he's seen her and she's fit.I couldn't think of a reply to that. He also said that there were better candidates and she wasn't his first or second choice (he was on the interview panel). I'm going to uni next September so it's only going to be five months of trouble if she is bad.
Talked to my physics teacher today about his phonecall. He said he didn't mean for me to get upset and he was sorry that it caused an argument between my mum and me. Then he said he hopes I fail in January and in June then he can teach me for another year. In his own strange way I think that was him saying he doesn't mind if I fail because he doesn't want me to leave. I can understand that, he's been a great support to me in the last two years and we're pretty close. What nobody seems to be getting is that I want to move on and do something with my life.
I went to the meeting on the engineering project this afternoon. I'd like to do it but its going to take up a fair bit of lesson time which I can't afford to miss.
Any supermarket will sell it, some people add honey to it. I don't mind the taste now but the first couple of mugs did take some getting used to; however, I had plenty of stuff to eat or drink that was well worse than apple cider vinegar.Quote:

I think that was what my gran tried to get me to have once. It stank, and I refused point blank to have it! My dad also spat it out because he wasn't used to it, and said it made him worse (whether that was to stop her almost spoonfeeding any more to him, I don't know.)
Its one of my mates 21st so we are meant to be going out, i am only going for one drink then cming back, i have been carolling so i am still freezing from that. Its Stident Christmas Eve today, we are havong christmas day tomorrow, where we are exchanging presnts and things. I managed to hand three assignments in today which is a load of my mind, once this one tomorrow is handed in ill feel much better. I can feel a cold coming on, so i have just bought oranges in hope to avoid it. And Lucoxade because me thinks mwe may be up all night trying to finish this essay.
Here comes a big fat F in Maths Mock for me...
I want to move classes so I get a teacher where I actually learn in the lessons (in theory) but I can't because I'll just get hell from the kids in the lessons.
It would help if my calculator would stop playing up!
Hope you manage to get the essay finished, Katy.
I'm going to get a big fat U in the Philosphy mock - theory of knowledge- tommorow (and Friday - Religion). I wish I hadn't taken it up it's impossible :p
I had a driving lesson today, my instructor decided to scare the life out of me and directed me on the main road (after four lessons of quiet backroads) and also into the town centre. :lol:
Aww, good luck. I'm glad I hate the only Philosophy teacher in my school, or I'd probably pick it.
Lol! Not nice.
I've got a biology past paper to do for this afternoon. I've had a week to do it but I've had other revision to do and couldn't be bothered. I hate biology, I understand nothing and its a waste of time. I'm copying some answers from the mark scheme, making sure that some of them are wrong.
My niece is here again. She's outside shouting for next door's cats.
I have Equity its my last one. I am listening to music, but its due in tomorrow. I also have quite a bad hangover.
I have exams in RE and English tomorrow. I've been doing a few notes this afternoon as revision and have managed to get a lump on my hand. I always get them if I write too much too quickly, so I decided to come on here. I dread to think what sort of pain I'll be in tomorrow when I've already given myself a lump, I have almost 4 hours straight of writing to do and I can't even manage half an hour when writing fast.
Had Maths today; it was baddd! I had to take my phone in because I live at least 6 miles away from my school and away from the main bus routes, so it would take 2 busses to get me home because the taxi isn't funded to pick up twice. So because I do my exams in the Special Needs part, they look after phones and lock them in the office as there'd be students going in and out of the main part. They only went and dropped mine on the floor and the back came off and the battery came out!
I found it quite amusing in the exam though because we're the first to do the new syllabus and so it's a specimen paper that we had to do. Somehow they'd only gone and managed to write on the front of the calculator paper, "You may not use a calculator." :rotfl:
Wooooo technically on Christmas holiday now :D:D. But I'm going in tomorrow for fun :lol:. Buses pick up at 12 though so it's all good. Then I'm going to my mates for a movie day and alcohol hah.
Watched Muppet Movie in college today :cheer:. And watched a College panto which was really funny.
Lucky! I have exams every school day for the next week :( But then I should be going to my mate's house after the last one, and going shopping on the Friday. Then it's CHRISTMASSSS, but have to go back into lessons 6 days before my birthday. Hmph!
Kind of finished for 2007 now though as we're on Study Leave :)
Least they're not in January- I'm spending my Christmas Break revising!Quote:

I've got two pieces of coursework over the christmas holidays, I don't know why my teachers do this, I'm hardly going to be in the mood for doing coursework at christmas! :p
You want to try finding the motivation to revise for eight AS and A2 exams over Christmas :thumbsdowQuote:
