Life is going soooo fast at the moment. my chemistry exam is in two weeks and a day. oh dear. I don't know why but I just can't revise- I just watch 90210 which probably won't get me an 'A'. The trouble is even though I know that, it doesn't make me revise any-more which is a shame (:
I know afterwards I'll hate myself, I just have to find the 'on' button.
So I was too late to book myself for RAVCs open day and now I just found I've done the same for Bristol. I tried the day after booking open!! Gahh whats a person got to do to visit a university round here. I rang the admissions person though and she said just keep checking, so I'm constantly just refreshing the page- another reason I'm not doing chemistry!
So the Port Lympne conservation thing turned out to be nothing which was kinda disappointing. Actually make that VERY disappointing. You have to be between 12 and 16 for a start, which I'm not, and it just wasn't what I thought it was going to be.
I think I've made up my mind on what I'm doing next year though - dropping English and carrying on Biology, Chemistry and Physics as well as doing an EPQ which as well as head girl should keep me occupied! I'm looking into negative aspects of conservation and human - animal interface focusing on game reserves in Africa as a general area for my EPQ which will take advantage of my Duke of Edinbugh Gold expedition and is also an area I'm interested in.
Last week I did a practice-practice expedition for my D of E which involved camping at a nearby site and walking 35km over two days in the pouring pouring rain. It took me a few days to properly dry out. I've never been so glad that we're doing the real thing in Africa, where rain is pretty unlikely.
I s'pose I best do something constructive, hopefully involving revision...
wow - blogs are pretty good for venting stresses (:
Friday the 9th of March was my army interview and I think it went really well! They want me to go back after I get my AS results which just hammers home the fact that I can do all the planning I want but grades are still the most important thing.
I can't believe that my Easter holidays start next week! My first week is packed with lambing and calving but I think I will leave the second week for some good ol' revision - I'm really looking forward to that! Next Wednesday I'm going to J R Farm Meats abattoir which I'm still really looking forward to, everything is coming round so quickly!
I spent my Sunday marshalling one of the many Sports Relief miles and had a great time, some people dressed up amazingly, my favourite was some 118 guys with moustaches still intact after 3miles! After the event all the stewards got even a goody bag, in which was a prune?! Just one single wrapped prune... very intriguing.
This means that I now have 45 hours of the 50 that I need to complete my V50 Award!
Sorry its taken me a while to get round to answering your question OCICAT93: after a while of googling, I found the BMAT results, this is the direct webpage...

Good Luck!
I was totally prepared (well semi anyways) for my Chemistry exam today. And then the snow. The one track road outside my house was like a car park last night thanks to the police who sent everyone down it because of crashes on the main road it comes off.
So now I have to wait until after half term to have my exam. Not what I wanted - we're going skiing and I didn't want any exams hanging over me AND the chemistry exam will now be on the first day back and we will have gotten home about midnight the night before. Great.
I'm still waiting on the call from the farmer. I don't have their number, it was being set up by a friend of a friend but I may have to do some digging to get it because I really want to go!
Organised a time and date for my army interview!
Couldn't go to Lord Whisky last weekend because I had SOOO much work to do and I'm missing the next two weeks because of skiing... not good.
Through my school I found out about this 50 hours of volunteering award with V Inspired or something so have decided to do that, I can use my time at Lord Whisky and I spent a few hours last week helping with a Year 8 quiz. My team lost. By quite a lot.
Damn, just remembered I STILL have to write my CV to send off to Burnham House and Animal House vets. MUST do that soon!
Also over half term I think I'm gunna aim to make some kind indent on the scary thing that is my personal statement
Through Duke of Edinburgh I might get the chance to do this really exciting sounding outside kinda first aid course which would be great! Its just a matter of trying to fit it in over the summer because I am crazy busy.
Have a good half term everyone!
Today I went to my local Army branch to find my ACAO- (thats army careers advisor officer to the non-military ones out there) and after filling in several forms, stepping on the weighing scales (a traumatic experience) and having my height measured, I found out that I'll be invited back within a month for an interview to decide whether or not I can join the RAVC and receive a grant towards my uni fees! Looks like I better brush up on my army knowledge.
