One to go

One to go one to go one to go.

(okay this isn't including general studies but shush.)

One to go one to go one to go.

Exams a' loomin

So much for the 'I'll probably be on here more during study leave looking for a distraction..' instead I tend to stare out my window at the tree and just think about nothing. It's quite fun really you should try it.

As for the exams I have no idea where the last four weeks have gone. Really. It's quite scary. Have 2 days left though for some cramming. Tomorrow plan is to finish learning human geog and then Monday will go over history again and again until I practically am Starkey! Praying to god for a friendly paper.. Pretty please. Kind of scary to think about the exam papers locked up in the exam cupboard just waiting for us all. Man I cannot WAIT for next Wednesday. Spending the whole evening watching my friends boxset, decided. Not that the said boxset hasn't had its fair viewing during study leave. 2 epis at breakfast and 2 at lunch... Highlight of my days!

Well anyway I am actually procrastinating now so should probably get back to memorising my historian quotes. Liking this one by Elton talking about Mary: Positive achievements- there were none.
Ooh burn.

Best get on with it! Xx

4 weeks today

Exams begin!

Luckily spent the day doing human geog notes and pretty much done first unit so happy with that- now just to actually learn it!..

Plan tomorrow shifts to history, as much as I would like to avoid it ha ha, reckon if I don't hurry and do these essays soon (already nearly 2weeks late oops) my teacher might shoot me.

Will certainly be strange going into school tomorrow knowing that don't actually go there anymore. Sad times. But exciting times.. Had a letter from Durham today saying thanks for picking us basically so let's keep those fingers crossed eh...

Adios for now!
Xoxo

lift up your hearts

So, my last proper day at QM has been and gone and boy was it emotional! We all sat there in assembly, tissues in hand, blubbering away- staff included! It's been an AMAZING 7 years and really I don't feel like I am just leaving my school but my home. But somehow don't think I'll ever really leave QM as it will always be something I carry close to my heart.

But enough of the sop because I have done more than enough crying these last few days already! Time now to plough on with the revision, ready for exams in 4 weeks.. At least art is now out the way and at last handed in. Those 15 hours of silence (fortunately not in one go else I'd have exploded) were a killer- I would have the same one line of a song swirling round my head for hours on end... particularly chim-chim-chimeree and Eminem (couldn't get more far apart if you tried).

I did enjoy it in fairness though, although that big pylon I drew was rather stressful to say the least. I was so happy when it was all handed in, practically skipped out the room! And as for unis, made the all important decision of Durham as my firm and StA as my insurance. Now to work hard and get those grades!

So that is that. Reckon these posts may become slightly more frequent now on study leave- because you know how I procrastinate ha ha. Oh good news on that history cwk... remember how I ranted about that... well the stress certainly paid off so kinda proud tbh- not often you hear me saying that, but I have a certain someone to thank for making me realise it is okay to be proud of who you are.

Well, that is all for now I think- should probably get dressed and make something of this last day before my revision really kicks in (hoping this mini-cold is gone by tomorrow!) On the other hand, might as well make the most of this last 'lazy day' and really be lazy ha ha...

QMHS 05-12. Lift up your hearts ♥

love this old pic of the place.

Revision begins

So I keep writing posts and saying I'll fill you in and never do. Also my posts are getting more and more sporadic I know. Ooh note the posh word there ha.
But anyway, life back in action after the fab escape stateside. Next couple of weeks gonna be major stress trying I bring everything together before study leave, not to mention art exam but just trying to enjoy it all as gonna miss ye place so much. The tears already began Friday lunchtime yikes!

Also got major decision to make re universities- Durham or st Andrews.. That is the question!!

I will let you know.. Promise.

Well on with the revision- I am the reason wilkinsons is out of revision cards ha ha ha....

USofA baby.

Just chilling in Costa @ heathrow waiting for la mere before heading back home after a fab trip to Philly to see the fam.
Now been awake 24 hours and sugar rush from my krispy Kreme doughnut (thought of indulge after the long flight) is starting to wear off... Just called a train carriage a train cabbage..
Ready for a snooze or doh-doh as my cousins call it, but need to try and get back to normal. Well my body clock back to normal at least...

More to follow on the US adventure!

success

The history coursework is finally COMPLETE. KAPISH. FINISHED. DONE. OVER.

Oh how good it feels to say that. However too tired to celebrate right now, eyes have been drooping for last hour or so, hoping have not missed many major typos in said coursework.

BUT HEY IT IS DONE. And the world seems like a better place ha-ha.

Now. My bed is calling me.

Bisous x
