Lmao yeppp 'The Apprentice' is actually the funniest sh*t. Hopefully there's another funny asian guy this year coz they're the best! Also the first episode comes out on the day of my ucat ... so it'll be a good way to celebrate!

AOTD: I'm watching 'Lost' with my dad and let's just say it's amazing! Like maybe I just find the mystery/thriller genre a bit too good but seriously if you have the time you should check it out!

ayy one of the funniest moments- Solomon and those boats on his business plan i-
and omg yes that is a great way to celebrate! is the ucat the one you find out the result straight away?

Ooooh love myself some further maths! What topic are you doing? Also the classwiz calculator is a lifesaver so protect it at all costs. Too many people in my year lost them and it's just unwanted stress!

AOTD: I eat and go on my laptop and stuff. Then cry about how much work I have to do without actually doing it.

Eat then work then relax
When u say first aider, do u mean like u did a course or do u do it continuously?

wow I really have abandoned this, and i genuinely feel so bad for the abandonment and unreplied messages and all, but also slightly apathetic as wow year 11 in intense. i know it's NoT aS bAd As SiXtH fOrM but gosh i thought the whole GCSEs thing was an overreaction, un petit peu de melodrama, if you will, but nope. i now stand corrected (as well as slightly sleep-deprived, past-paper-laden and brain-sunken-with-the-knowledge-of-too-many-studytube-videos)

the whole point of this GYG thing was to take a break once in a while and write to document year 11 as a bit of a souvenir, but also to just chill (aha if you have tiktok can you please appreciate the i wish you would find your chill reference) as i haven't done any of that since before my mocks which i revised for during christmas and started the fIRST DAY BACK (i know in monica's voice from friends [wow i wish i could add soundbites]). i'm not going to be explicit with my grades because quite frankly i don't think anyone reading this cares, but i got 8s in my sciences and RS (i didn't see a whole essay question), 9s in geography, history, french and english lit+lang and a 7 in maths which am really determined to pull up. i've got roughly three months (having just received my timetable) to pull up the grades i need to, to get the results i want.

also major update, i got into my dream sixth form after 2 days of gruelling exams and interviews in biology, chemistry, maths and RS!

if you're in/or have been in year 11, feel free to say how it is so far/ or how you were feeling around this time. is time moving really fast, do you feel as awkward balancing all the homework and revision?
have a great morning/afternoon/evening
@neurosurgically
Oof yes I remember that Year 11 life 😭. Keep the hustle though, you got this! Those grades are amazinggg!

Omgg congrats on your sixth form acceptance! That’s awesome! ❤️
ahh congrats on getting into the sixth form! and also for those grades they look fab, dw bout maths you can easily pull it up over these next months
congrats about getting into the sixth form! :rave:. Your grades are so good :thumbsup:.
I don't get much homework anymore :adore:, so I no longer have to balance it... but if I did, I probably just wouldn't do it (unless the homework would be a form of revision).
Honestly, time is moving pretty fast and I'm so happy. I just want to get it over and done with at this point. There are soo many subjects I am beyond ready to drop.
