Hello everyone,
With exactly 14 days to go until my first exam and my procrastination at its peak, I figured it was time for a lil update. Firstly, I don't know what it is, but i feel FANTASTIC!! I'm just in a great mood, which means that I'm actually being sort of productive. (Apart from the disaster that was last week... but y'know...) I also got two bio assessments back today, I got 100% on both!!!! I'm so happy.
My teacher said my work had improved a lot this term and that the clarity that I wrote with was better. She said I should be aiming for a score in the high 40s next year (or even a 50). This was encouraging after the slump I was in last term.
So... I didn't manage to get any exams moved so I do have three on the same day, including my 1/2 exam unfortunately.

Although my "to do" list is really REALLY long, I feel better having all my tasks down on paper. I just can't wait for exams to be over. Just waiting for summer.
As well as my exam revision, I'm involved in a council project, so I'm chatting to the public next weekend as a way to raise awareness at a local festival. I'm also performing at that festival with my school's drama troupe.
I'm also coaching some junior debate teams which is a pretty big commitment as I have to meet with all six teams together once a week, and meet with the two teams that I am coaching individually at least once a week (but sometimes twice) on top of that. However, I am enjoying it.
