It brings me the greatest pleasure ever to be able to say that i am no longer sitting my GCSE's. I HAVE FINIIIISHHHEDDDD!
The whole of the past two years has been focused on these exams. It's ridiculous that these things are seen to determine the rest of my life, so basically if I fail them I will end up a heroin riddled drug addict with no stable job and no hope at all. Crazy. However I haven't failed them, I am in the safe knowledge that I have achieved at least 5 A-C's and will comfortably get into college (: I'm glad the hype is over and i can now relax until about a week before results day (27th August) when i will start to lose my mind and contemplate every single possible outcome.
I'm sure the ritual of the media reporting that exams are getting easier once the results are out will occur. Has it not crossed their minds that maybe just maybe the teaching standards are improving? Or that the quality of resources is far better than it use to be? Evidently not. They just say it's getting easier, which is amazingly frustrating as us Teenagers work our butts off to achieve good grades. All the stress, tears and sleepless nights are apparently un-needed and the exams are getting easier. Mmmhm and i'm the queen of spain.
I am so looking forward to college. The fact I'll be treated like an actual human being and not just another stereotyped hooligan is something I think I'll get used to quite quickly. I'm taking a set of incredibly challenging and essay based subjects but i welcome a challenge. Politics, Law, English Literature and Modern History. There's no real reason behind me choosing them, I want to go into Written Journalism (which is another reason for the blog) so i figured essay based ones would prove my wicky wow writing skills. I think Politics should be quite good as I'm actually pretty interested in it all and how it works (: 'Citing stuff.
Then there's the parties and the immense socialising, but obviously that's not my main reason for being excited about college. I'm there for the education... (; We get to go to Alton Towers during the first week, i've never been and reckon this is a genius idea to get us newbies to bond. I welcome it with open arms (:
