Adapting

So here is a little update on my life lately. So I went to my first university open day the other day which was great. I really liked it there. I mean it was a bit stressful to walk around and have your parents hounding you to ask questions and so on but it was still good. Other than that, not much has been going on except trying to adapt to being in the year below, all my friends and classmates gone to move on with their lives whilst I spend time with people I had never spoken to until a year ago. Also trying to adapt to the fact that I have gone to hanging out with mostly girls to mostly boys which is different. And surprisingly comes with more drama than I was expecting. 

For example, my friend and I are retaking last years economic exams and we are sitting in on a class in the year below to revise. So there is this girl called Sasha who is a year younger than my friend and two years younger than me. A new girl who is in our class and I thought she was nice but didn't really know her or anything. And then I end up leaving this class temporarily because they were studying a part that I found easy. But apparently in my absence this girl steals my seat next to my friend and basically becomes obsessed with him. Constantly talking about him with her friends and has now even moved to sit next to him when he goes to breakfast in the morning. 

But now she gives me evil glares all the time. What the heck did I do? Seriously, if anyone has any suggestions then that would be great because I am clueless. This girl hates me now and I have only ever spoken to her once. So what if I am friends with the boy she likes? I was friends with him longer than she has even been to the school and I am not going to stop hanging out with one of the few good friends I have at this school just to please a stalker. 

Then today, I have to go back to this class just for today to take a test. And I get there before her and take back my old seat  (where I sit for my A2 Economics and sometimes my business studies class too, by the way) and am already laughing and chatting with my friend when she walks in. She is halfway to my seat when she realises I am sat in my old spot and she goes from smiling to glaring at me pretty quickly. So she turns around and goes back to her old seat and sends me evil looks throughout the lesson as I ignore her and take my test. Then me and my friend both finish very early and have to sit around for half an hour and end up secretly talking and making words on the calculator, causing her to glare at me even more. So by the time we were allowed to leave I was kind of relieved. I have to go back to that class regularly soon which is going to suck.

Other than that not much is going on. I have been writing a bit lately so feel free to check out my other blog or my Wattpad books.

So anyone else ever have this problem?

Back to School

Hey! Twice in one week, shocking I know. But I finally got my new laptop which makes it that more possible to post again. So as you can tell by the title the topic of today's post is the most popular of any teenager, school. Tomorrow school starts again. But this isn't any first day of school. No, it is my last ever first day of school! I hope. It was meant to be last year but I am determined to finish this year. Anyway, to mark the occasion I am making a list of my top five things I hate and love about school.

Things I love about school-

1) Everyone's favourite probably, is seeing your friends. Because when we are finished, when will we ever get the chance to see your friends five out of seven days a week ever again?

2) Getting out of the house. Because let's face it. If I didn't have school everyday I would probably spend my days glued to my laptop on my bed whilst watching TV. Oh wait I am doing that now! But not for long.

3) Learning. Sometimes learning can actually be fun and interesting. I mean sure there are things like maths which sucks (not that have maths lessons anymore) but there are interesting topics about history or geography. About things that are going on in the world. Or even finding out something basic that you never knew before.

4) The gym and pool. Our school has a new building which is actually pretty cool and the facilities are great. Plus you know, you get access for free!

5) Access to town. My school is like a three minute walk to the hughstreet which is highly convenient for well.. pretty much everything.


Things I hate about school-

1) Assembly and Chapel has to be the worst. Because why do I want to spend hours in my week sitting around listening (or pretending to) to teachers yapping on about a bunch of crap.

2) Homework. No need to explain that one.

3) Exams suck. I mean we spend about fourteen (well only eight for me) in school and it all comes down to a couple of exams which determines whether or not your life is going to rock or suck.

4) sitting in long classes when they are boring as hell.

5) One thing you can always count on is sucky food. I mean, really? Most the time I skip lunch anyway.


So there you have my lists of what we have to expect this school year. Good luck to all of you!
