Going back to boarding school + end of easter hol + mountain of work= :(

Hi.

So I got back to boarding school yesterday and everything was fine last and all today. Until tonight when I find myself sitting there on my own in my bedroom wishing and wanting more than anything in the world just to go home. Im in floods of tears, i just dont want to be here. Normally Im never like this, sure I feel fed up that the hols are over. But I just want to be at home so much :frown:

I vowed to start my 8 week revision plan for A2 tonight, but I only did 2 hours and am so angry at myself for falling asleep in between. Im looking at all of my work and thinking this is so much, even though I know ive got time to do it, with this aspect I think its just after having a great hol its a bit of an ask to then start working towards getting AAA.

The main issue is the boarding, I know there is only 7 weeks left but I honestly cant see myself boarding for that long ( I do go home at weekends). I dont know, it must sound really petty. I cant tell anyone about this because its only the "little kids" who get upset about coming back to boarding.

I dont know...just :frown:

I suppose.

Aww, sorry mate :hugs:

I will be in the same boat in a week (apart from I board weekends cos I'm hard :biggrin:

)

Just cry all you want when no one's around and put on a brave face until you feel better. Plus find someone there to confide in who'll understand and keep it quiet.

Ignore chewwy!!!!
i go to boarding school and only started this year (L6) and its very stressful!!!
dont worry about your A2's as its ages away and if your skl is anything like mine then you will be doing looads of work towards them!!!
as for boarding.. you just need to keep telling youself that its only 7 weeks which is nothing then you have the whole summer!!! and also... you get to go to uni which will be fantastic and you will be ahead of everyone else as you have already lived away from home :biggrin:

Basically... try not to worry too much :biggrin:

hugs!!!

Cheer up, you've nearly finished an entire chapter of your life. AAA would be a great achievement. It must be all in your head; nothing could be so great about going home that you couldn't hold out for 7 weeks for 3 As in reality. Saying that may not make you feel any better, but remembering that will hopefully keep you in the running for this final leg.

Keep your chin up and do whatever you have to to prove to yourself that you can get these grades you want, that's what it's all about after all :smile:

I'm going back to Uni at the end of the week, which is kind of a big boarding school so I sort of know how you feel haha. I have far too much work to do and none of it has been done =/

Don't stress about excessive revision, you'll only make yourself worse. This time last year when I was doing my A2s I hadn't started proper revision at all, it was a couple of hours sporadically- maybe once every 3 days? May I started revising properly, and even then it wasn't masses until my study leave started at the end of May. I came out with AAAAAaa so I can't have revised too badly! Hope you feel better soon :smile:
