Today was certainly a day... I have a terrible, terrible migraine rn, cos I didn't drink any water before like 5.30pm... dumb I know... I still studied tho (like a real gymbro)
Here's what i did:

1 hr English- worked on TMA

1 hr Spanish- did the preiterite tense-y stuff

40 mins Classics- read book 6 of the Odyssey

I meant to do more but ended up having a 2 hour long chat with my mum :lol:
I also gotta watch the lesson recording for Classics when my tutor uploads it...
Saturday is no longer a break day BTW cos I'm not studying SM during the week anyways...

Welcome to elareare's GYG!

Hiya! I'm elareare, welcome to my fairly fab GYG!
I'm studying my a-levels from home with distance-learning courses, because I'm Irish and there's no sixth-form colleges here, sadly... :sadnod:
But I'm sure I can slay the day away and get my target grades! :dumbells:
This is what I'm studying:

AQA English Language, with Oxford Open Learning.

Edexcel Spanish, also with Oxford Open Learning.

OCR Classical Civilisation with Humanatees Tutoring.

I'm also sitting the TEG Irish exam to the B1 CEFR level.

I plan to take these exams in 2026, and go to uni in the same year.
I hope to study Global Languages in my uni. (Spanish and Irish)
My Target Grades are:

BBB, and a pass in the TEG exam. That's all I need for my chosen course (by means of CAO points), but I'm obviously hoping for better!
About me:

I like crafting, reading, making dodgy Spotify playlists and believe it or not, studying...

Good luck with your a levels 🙂 Ive also started them this year, but I go to sixth form. I did used to be home schooled though. Which subject are you enjoying the most so far?

I'm liking Spanish the most at the moment... But I'm actually kind of enjoying Irish for the first time in my life, lol
