good luck with your exams :) general studies is pretty easy to blag, especially the multiple choice ones. the only one i didnt really like was the language paper, it was so hard! my society, politics and economy one had a question in it which had been on my politics exam so luckily it was easy for me but everyone who didnt do politics found it hard. im sure youll do fine thoughQuote:

I need to go for a blood test this afternoon but I'm so tired so I'm going to bed.
Not too much on in the office today so I came in jeans and trainers and cleared out a cupboard and a filing cabinet - much needed, I chucked out loads of paper rubbish. It was not that warm at 6.30 am but now it is sunny and very warm again and I am hot, hot, hot. Want to go home and take trainers off. :(
It's quite warm here today too. Bit breezy but it's ok.
Are you skiving Perdita? :hmm:
Me skiving :eek: Wash your mouth out with soap and water Abigail :lol:Quote:

thanks i hope ill be successful to. I have handed three in in town another 3 online and i have to go to another place tomorrow to hand one in. I was too knackered today i couldnt face the bus ride and it was so hot so i cam e home instead.
I thought my Biology exam went horribly, then I got to Chemistry this morning only to find it ten times worse! Safe to say I have failed Additional Science. Physics unit left to go but I'm even worse at that. The examiners will have a good laugh at me I guess; these exams will look hilarious against an A* piece of coursework. They don't even give you enough time for all the calculations that you have to do; I had to really rush the last question which was full of calculations. I swear they hadn't really checked the paper too; they really should do as it's the first year that GCSE has been examined. Was not impressed at having to get a bus at 25 past 7 and then stay at school all day because of a 45 minute exam.
English was fine. Loved the question choices in Section B. Missed the bus on the way home as we got out late and had to collect our yearbooks. Waiting 50 minutes for a bus after staying in all day was just the icing on the cake really. They told us after the Chemistry exam to go to the gym to collect them, then when I got there they said we weren't getting them until after the English exam :angry:
Night off as I've had 7 exams this week. May do some RE notes in a bit but that will be it. Dad's taking off on a golfing weekend tomorrow so I have to stay in school all day again; the one hour I need a bus is the one hour in the day they don't do one. Meh.
Katy, where was warm in stockport?! I swear cheadle hulme and the bit near my house is a microclimate... It's really cold!!!
Failed another 2 of my exams, and getting ready to fail geography tomorrow morning, too. Oh well.
LOOOOL! Understandable I guess :lol:Quote:

Oh god, Section B... I would love about 2 and a half hours for English. Usually I sit there with plenty of time but with English I always feel I don't have enough time..Quote:

I have RE (which we call RS) tomorrow too.. Been trying to revise but it's not easy for a subject you don't enjoy much.. Exam is in afternoon so I will watch Heroes, revise for about half an hour and sleep and do some revision tomorrow, where it usually goes in because it's last minute. (My mind seems to work in a reverse direction when it comes to 'revision rules')...
*sighs*
That's the question I did. I was happier with what I wrote for that than with some of my describe practise questions, which all got A's and A*'s, so hopefully I've got that again. I was really worried about timing too. I didn't have time to check my answer to section B but oh well, at least I finished the paper.
I have the second part of my RE on Tuesday; revision session for it tomorrow.
Stop worriying im sure youve done better than you think. I always reckon i fail after every exam and usually i havent done to bad.Quote:

Kim, my sister found chemistry really hard yesterday so i think if it was the same exam then hard was the general conclusion, in fact my old headteacher said it was one of the hardest papers he has ever seen.
Was she on AQA? I found the Biology really hard too; do you know how she found that?
Revision lesson at 11. I have to get a bus an hour and ten mins before the bus to school just to get into town. This is a joke! So much for the RE notes I was intending to make this morning! I'll be stranded afterwards too. I hate public transport! :crying: :crying:
yesterday went to the opticians and got my contact lenses, wasnt in there for too long so that was good. then we had cheerleading training on the field cos the sports hall is being used for exams and we learnt some new stuff so that was good :)
today not really got much planned, gotta tidy my room and go into town and up to uni to do a few things
public transport is dreadful! and the government wonder why people use their cars! :rolleyes: on sunday mornings when i play netball, if i got the bus id be there 50mins early, i can leave my house later if i walk! and another thing that annoys me is each bus route doesnt work with the others, when i go to uni i have to get 2 buses and have to leave earlier than i should cos as the first bus pulls into the station as the second one is leaving!Quote:

I really need to go to bed earlier. Day before yesterday 6am yesterday 5am. :p
Going to see Joseph in the theatre this evening. Looking forward to it :D
Yeah Katy, It'll have been the buses. And hopefully it went well, we'll see on results day! Time for work now...
Ahhh I'm really relaxed lol
It souds silly but Im so content now and happy that exams are over. Good luck to everyone sitting exams!
Today I had to go into town for my Nan and then I came home and actually cooked dinner!!
It tastes very nice too if I do say so myself lol
Don't think Im doing much tonight.. just lazing about watching BB. Ahh the weekend :D Yay
hope you have a good time :)Quote:

I have been shopping in Manchester today which was nice but i now have no money. Its never good when you are skint. I dont mind public transport here, its quite good. But when im in uni in Wales its awful.
Public transport in cities and large towns is pretty good. In small, rural areas it is appalling.
Done some revision today, not much though. I went to bed a 4.30pm and didn't get up until 8pm. I was going to do some more revision when I got up but I don't feel too good.
There was an unexploded ww2 bomb somewhere on the tube so our train line was severely delayed but luckily we weren't late :)
Lee Mead in a short towel :wub: :p If you didn't know the story then I think you'd find it a bit confusing though. But it was a good show :D
Oooh bomb. Strange place to find it, did somebody carry it on?
I'm so jealous, you could have invited me along :p
I'm never told about these things until a few weeks before :lol: I'd love to invite you all along though :pQuote:

:eek: :eek: :eek: I am also VERY jealous :crying:. Why couldn't you have taken me with you :(. Lee :wub:.
Been one of those days, where nothing was simple!
Went into town with some friends to do a bit of shopping, went to get some vouchers for topshop, and the assistant was new and took her ages to process them.
Then went to get some Lucky Charms from Selfrdiges, 8 quid a box, daylight robbery! Then we went for lunch at the Jacket Potatoe shop, but she said there'd be a ten minute delay for Jackets!!! Couldn't find a mirror in ANY shops in Brum either, so much for shopping capital of Europe :rolleyes:
I looked in like every shoe shop in Brum for some hi top trainers, no luck. Soon as I get home I find a pair online from Topman that were perfect - goes to show you should shop online all the time.
On the plus side - brought the Sex And The City shoebox boxset today! :D
I'd shop online over going to the shops any day. I really hate shopping, especially when the sales are on. I never find anything that fits and the shops are always mafting.
Not done much today, had a rest from the revision. My grandad brought me some money for my holiday :D It'll go a very long way.
Done some revision today, was catching up on sleep for a bit as I didn't sleep very well last week. Friend persuaded a friend of hers to get her some credit so I've been texting her. She's shocked that we haven't seen each other since February. The busses to her place are as terrible as the school ones. £3.90 to go a few miles up the road; daylight robbery! That's while pretending I'm not 16 and paying child's fare. That doesn't even get me to her place either; hardly any of the busses go up there. Trying to sort out a day where we can get all day travel cards so the busses won't be so bad. I need to get a prom dress now that my exams are nearly over. Kind of looking foward to it but kind of not as I won't see my friends from school until Enrolment Day, except from at the prom.
On a more positive note, my dad has agreed to drive me to his cousin's place when I go up to stay with her. He thinks it's a bargain since it means he gets rid of me for a while lol!
I washed the cars today and got drenched in the process which was quite nice considering its boiling. going to watch the footy later which should be good. Other than that boring day.
yesterday i went to this music festival thing which they have on campus. it was really good even though the weather was horrible and it kept raining! got my face painted cos it was free lol and people kept giving me drinks so i didnt really have to buy any myself! they had fireworks as well which was cool. decided to walk back home at about 1am even though we live miles away! the train tracks go across one of the roads we have to walk down and for some reason there was a train coming at that time of night! it went passed and then the barriers stayed down for another 20mins for no reason!
today not done much, slept then went food shopping, probably not really going to do anything else
