Phew, SATs over at long last! Now I await the results (which I shall not receive till July....) The only paper that really annoyed me was the english writing. The task was to write the first chapter of a detective novel (fine), but then they wanted you to launch straight into the story without any sort of plausible opening (eh????????) with plenty ( Read more... )

Ok, imagine this. An inexperienced weirdo hopelessly trying to balance on a surf board. Yup, that's me in a few days. Oh hell, it'll be funny. Tehe, I don't think I'll actually have the guts to do it.....And imagine this. Me, stuck inside revising for a couple o' exams that don't mean anything in life. Yup, this'll be me in a few days aswell. The b ( Read more... )

Yeeesh, I really need to change my icon, but seeing as I'm ot that skilled in computing, I don't think that will happen until  ailsajoy comes round and does it for me. I find it funny how little I know about computers.....my "wisdom" extends about as far as clicking on "Games" and then "Solitaire". Anyway, does anyone have any tips to do with changing my ( Read more... )

Ah yes, now the holidays. Filled with joyous revision for the even-more-joyous SATs. At least there won't be an insufferably nauseating alarm at 6:15 in the morning for the next two weeks....There's not much planned for the hols actually apart from Belgium, but that's the way I like it. On finishing school yesterday, i now feel quite sufficiently ( Read more... )

Happy New Year, with many hobbit hugs
