    Can't help feeling slightly jealous of my friend right now
    I'm about to start of AS exams and am going through complete chaos. I have crazy amounts of revision to do in 2 weeks feel like I'm never going to get it done. My friend on the other hand, does a Btec fashion course at colledge and it sounds amazing, she doesn't have any exams and I always see her photos on facebook of her work. I hate jealously but at the moment I can't help but think she's got it lucky at the minute.

    it depends on what you want to do with your life.She may seem that she doesn't have much going on right now, but fashion requires a lot of work and is a very competitive industry.

    On the other hand, she probably has (or did have) a lot of coursework to do. Depending on what you're studying, you may have had little / no coursework.

    you do realise that if you put yourself through hard challenges now, you give yourself more opportunities for a fuller life in the long run, right?

    It'll all be worth it in the end! You don't get anywhere without hard work - I imagine your friend finds some parts of the Btec hard as well, and its ridiculously competitive to get into fashiob anyway, so it all balances out.
