Hello guys. I hope you are all alright. I'm sorry it's been a week since I last posted, but I haven't had a lot to say and have had a lot of homework lately.
On Tuesday I had a Geography trip. We went to Little Beck and gathered data at various points along a river. To start off with, it was raining heavily and the teachers thought we might have to return to school. We had to stay in the mini-bus for about an hour and did not start collecting data until a tad before noon (It took awhile to get there). However, it was moderately enjoyable, though I did get extremely wet (At one point I fell on one knee and at another I inadvertently wades in rather deep to collect some stocks for one of the tasks). I need to write up my introduction.
I got an e-mail yesterday, informing me I had been selected to receive further information about a residentuary course at Newcastle University. I had to apply, so I don't know if I will be accepted, but I hope I will be. My best friend is also going to apply, so if we both get accepted, we'll asked to be roomed near each other.
We have to do a speaking exam in English on Monday. I'm doing mine about unicorns. My English teacher hates us all and is a really harsh marker, so I feel like I'm going to fail. I need to prepare over the weekend.
My teacher didn't show up to Creative Writing, so I went home. It's a tad irritating, as we had never been told it wasn't on, but I wanted to go home anyway, as I've had a busy week.
