The Past Few Months

Looking at how little I have blogged this year I felt that I needed a bit of a catch up post. I've also been looking at some new blogs I have come across and they've inspired me to write a new post!

I have just had 2 weeks of mocks for my GCSE's next year and if I am finding the mocks stressful, I don't know how I will cope with the real ones?! Since my last post I have been on holiday, had college interviews, finally got a job interview (in a week!) and had my birthday!

Late August, I went on holiday to Jersey with my family. Our hotel was right on the beach and the whole island was really quiet (the beaches were nearly always empty). We went to a lot of war places as the island was occupied by Germany in World War Two and we also had a go on a Segway which I absolutely LOVED! Would 100% recommend, it's so easy once your know how! I won't ramble on but I will just say that Jersey was one of my favourite holidays and I would definitely visit again!

Since October I have been attending college open evenings for next year and I have finally decided on which courses I want to do (I think?):

  • English Lit & Lan Combined (only avaliable at some so if not - English Language)
  • Art: Photography
  • Art: Textiles
  • Business Studies
I really wanted to do German instead of one of those options but unfortunately it's only available at one college in my area.

My 16th birthday was on 11th November and I spent most of the day at school and around an hour at a college interview (the exciting life I lead). I finally upgraded my phone from a crappy blackberry to an IPhone 5S and I love it so much! I also went to Fright Night at Thorpe Park with a few of my friends (my ticket was a present). I had such a good time but it was TERRIFYING!

we managed to do all the mazes bar one
 

It's a scary thought leaving school and going to college but I do find it exciting too. My results day is already planned out as is my prom which I am SO excited for! (I already have my dress!)

Bit of a rambly post but hope you enjoyed it :)
