YR11s!! What are you doing now your GCSEs are over?

Hello guys! :hello:
To all year 11s who have finished their GCSEs... congrats!:pwnd::parrot::jiggy::happy2::gthumb::grin::flower2: :ahee::angel::bunny:

Soooo, we all have really long summers. I think I have about 10 weeks off (yay)! I want to make the most of this time and really enjoy it.

Here are some ideas of stuff to do (or at least stuff I'm gonna do):
> prom :smile:
> make a YouTube channel
> go on NCS (4 weeks) : starts 10th July. Week 1 Week 2 Week 3 Week 4
> chill with friends :cool:
> make scrapbooks of stuff
> going to see last shadow puppets, sooo excited!
> Shopping ✓-parents are giving me money if i get good gcses (yay, i did well!!!):awesome:
> Make music.... maybe. Might try it out
> Sort out my room like posters and repainting/ decorate with lights :bell:
> go running / cycling / walking / daily workout
> TSR... obvs :cyber:
> photography - might get a polaroid????
> maybe do a meetup (arranged for saturday)
> Finish watching pretty little liars: S1 ✓, S2 ✓, S3 S4 / oitnb S1 ✓, S2 S3 :cute:
> find cool music on spotify then make playlists
> play games --> agar.io is my fave / Pokemon go
> write a bit of poetry
> make art, kinda like drawing :fluffy:
> go on holiday with parents, I think we're going to Kent & France. I hope we go on a speed boat aha
> burn my school jumper lol :biggrin:
> video editing
> do a few online competitions, might be fun
> sounds nerdy but I want to learn all the countries for georgraphy A level and just self-satisfaction :h: Countries in: Africa . Europe . Asia. South America . Oceania. Capitals in: Africa. Europe. Asia. South America. Oceania.
> get into reading again :yy: (at least 3 books) (lol this isn't going to happen)
> tumblr blog
> get instagram
> donate money to charity ("kids with cancer" )

(I'll be adding new ideas to the list)
These are things I plan to do, bc I just want to make it as enjoyable as possible. I don't just want to be one of those people locked to the TV all day, feeling tired and bored. I'll have some lazy days but i just don't want it to be 10 weeks of lazy days (: What things are you gonna do? I'm curious :u::u::u:

WEEK 1 WEEK 2 WEEK 3 WEEK 4 WEEK 5 WEEK 6
