Summer 2016

Omg.. It's been so long since my last post. I mean, I posted back in October - 6 weeks into Year 9, and now we've just broken up for our 6 weeks holidays. I actually can't even believe how fast this year has gone.

We're already at the summer holidays whaaaa. I literally can not even get over the fact I've finished Year 9 and I'm going into Year 10 in September. It's so unreal to think this time next year I would've sat my first couple of GCSEs as we sit some in Year 10 and the rest in Year 11..!

I also can't get over the fact it's the 25th July.. We're almost 8 months into 2016. What is even happening..

I know I haven't blogged for quite a while.. but I shall keep you posted this summer on anything interesting that happens :)

October?

I know! It's crazy...
It's literally October...
And it's Autumn!

So, I'm in my 6th week (maybe) of year 9 and it's not as scary as I had first expected!
It doesn't even feel like I'm doing GCSE courses (apart from when people misbehave and the teacher reminds us all).
If you didn't know, my school starts GCSEs a year early. This means some exams I will sit at the end of Yr10 and the rest at the end of Yr11, rather than having to do them all in Yr11.

I also hit 200 subscribers on my YouTube channel! OMG
I couldn't even believe it! It still seems so unreal, even now.
There's 246 people who think my videos are worth watching... CRAZY!

Back to School..

Yes, I know.. It's nearly September again, which means school is coming back around :'(

It's so scary to say that I'm going into Year 9 this year and I'm starting my GCSEs as my school starts them a year early...

And how has the six weeks off we have just had gone by so fast?! I feel like I haven't done anything this summer. It's just one big blur of sunny weather.
This time next week I will literally be sitting in a classroom.. :')
As you can tell, I can't wait.

Science Exams ... :(

Yet again, it has been over a month since I last blogged!
And, yet again, I'm sorry!

I'm coming to the end of Year 8 now and next year I'm starting my GCSEs, which is all very exciting but slightly scary too! My end of Year 8 science exams are near the end of May. My first revision session at school was today! So, I think I should really start revises now.

If you didn't know, the exams are based on EVERYTHING I've learnt in the past two years, which, looking back over old books, is A LOT!

I'm slightly nervous just in case I forget something in the exam or revise something, then revise something different, then forget the first thing I revised... If you get that!

I'm not really looking forward to May!
The results I get in my exams determines what set I'll be in Year 9/ if I am going to have to take double science or triple science...

I'll blog more about this closer to the time! All very scary!

Exciting Stuff...

This morning I was one of 7 people out of my school to be chosen to 'interview' three teachers who were trying to get the job of Head of Global Studies!

It was quite scary at first because I didn't really know what to say or do and then one of them asked me a question directly....
After I'd given an answer, I suppose it didn't seem that bad after all :)

Good Night Zzz

Another Monday is finally over! Thankfully!

Only 4 more days until the weekend again ;)

I've had more homework again today... meaning I really need to start some of my other pieces soon! I might do that tomorrow. At our school, most pieces of homework must take 2hours each as they are projects :( uh oh.

I hope your Monday went alright!

Primary School Friends

Today is one of my primary school friends' 13th birthday party! She said that she has invited a few people from primary school to meet up! I am really excited to be honest!

Since I went to a different school to all my primary friends, I hardly ever see any of them, so tonight will be exciting!

I can't wait! I'll try and upload some photos if I can!

GCSE Options!

I'm now in Year 8 at school, which means that I have to choose my options by the end of this month! :/

Normally, you choose your options when you get to Year 9, but my school does it differently and gets you to choose in year 8 so you have more free time and not always crammed with work!

There are subjects that are compulsory by law, these are as follows:
English Literature
English Language
Maths
Science
ICT
PE
...and if you are in the higher sets...
French...

Because I have to take French as well, I only get to choose three more options. It's quite difficult as the options are all in different columns so PE, Business Studies, Food Tech and fashion could be in Block A for example and I could only choose one of all of them subjects to study. Other subjects are in the other columns and I can only choose one out of each.

I've been thinking about what I want to take and I think I'm gonna go with Business Studies, Sociology and History. However, you don't always get your first option, so I have to choose back up options just in case :(

...


I've just come back from Year 8 Parents Evening and started thinking more about my options. It is quite hard and I'm quite stuck as teachers were saying how different GCSE in that subject would be completely different to how it is now and in Year 7. I'm quite stuck now but I think I'm gonna have to check the school website to see what each option is like and what it can do for you in the future.
