God, I feel like I've missed out on so much on this! I get too tired in the evenings to do anything...even turning this laptop on is effort to me! Anyway, roughly 38 school days left!! Everytime I do something like this I say "Sh*t just got real" but i've said it so much i need to come up with something else! :pac:
Anyways, I don't feel like doing anything today, maybe next year I'll be in the mood to celebrate my irishness
Times passing pretty damn fast now, so naysus the next time I get on it may be the orals :pac: I'd say I'll start studying in April, but what with Orals, then practicals I doubt I'll have time to do much else. Still...counting down the days eh?
Oh and also, Happy Belated Birthday HistoryKitten xD0 -

Ah, the Geography Fieldstudy!

Hoping for 95%+. I just really wanna get it written into the booklet and away at this stage.
I had a Sylvia Plath essay off old papers that I decided to do (for the fun I guess
) and give it into my Teacher on Tuesday. I only spend 50 minutes max. on my poetry essay because that's all you get in your exam. I did about 4.5 pages but only got discussing 3 poems! (Morning Song, Child, Poppies in July). Is that too little? I ussually get the time to discuss 4 poems but this time I could barely get time to do a general introduction, the 3 poems and a concluding paragraph! 0 -

Tbh, 3 is probably to little. I've been told minimum 5/6 and on a good day 7. See if you can smush in some extra references (ie her use of color is seen in both Poppies and The arrival of the bee box, maybe a short quote then continue on with your original point) just to bring the poem count up0 -

7 :eek:.. Whut.
We've actually only done 5 Plath poems, I only just realised that looking through the book! I'm not that crazy about Plath tbh, now Rich, there's a good poet imo! Hoping she'll be on, there seems to be a massive thing about Plath though with most people! You never know, they could put 2 females on the exam! 0 -

Could you do me a huge favour and tell me what way you wrote your field study? :P
Like was it all concise and to the point or did you go into detail?
As in was it "Aims = xyz" or "The aims of my geographical investigation include xyz" 0 -

Is anyone else turning into a complete introvert this year? I've always been a bit introverted (and I'm fine with that), but this year I'm just way worse! If I get a text asking if I'm going out my stomach sinks, I always think it sounds way nicer to just chill out at home. Basically I'm never in the mood for going out!
I'm the same, I hate going out at the moment because its almost always a bad night, I hate all the places we go to and someone always gets too drunk and ruins everything. I'm hoping next year will be better, after realizing this years the first year I can go to Pride in June but I don't think I've anyone to go with 0 -

For me it's not even that it's a bad night, it's just the effort! Plus the last few times I went out it was with college peeps and they were just like "god town is so crap compared to going out in college", and I'm just like yeah, that's great. :rolleyes: Anyway, I've always preferred having a get together at one friend's house to going out.
Woah, you mean there's an actual event in June that isn't on during the exams?!?! :eek: :P You never know, you might find someone to go with by then. 0 -

I'm usually like that. But I haven't been out since new years, so I'm kinda excited about going out now later :P
Same, yeah I just need to get excited for going out and I'll be grand. Think I might actually go out, need a rendez-vous with the gang!Its on the 26th as far as I know! So thats 4 days for even the really late finishers to recover :P
Sweet! I think that's the day I'm going to see Red Hot Chili Peppers, gonna be epic. 0 -

well then i'm an epic fail... Only ever do three, never done more and my teacher (and any teacher in my school) only ever says do three, never gotten lower than a b2 on a poetry essay!! Only studied 5 poems for each poet :rolleyes: I wont worry anyway!0 -

Yeah it should be good! Gonna see a couple of loads of people I haven't seen since New Year's. Can't believe it's been that long since I've seen them (they're like my best friends...). But sure, it'll make tonight more craic!Christ did ye just hear about the poor footballer Muamba? I really hope he's ok.
God, just read about that. It's awful, hope he recovers.0 -
