Helloooo everybody! How are you doing? I hope you’re doing okay.
I am quite aware of the fact that I have been very quite on the blogging scene for a while so I thought I’d give you an update on my life.
I am currently in Year 11 which is a HUGE exam year for us here in England. This has kept me rather busy with revision and studying hard in school to make sure I’m doing all I can to get the best grades I can. This has lead me to being rather busy and the hard concentration has made me quite tired.
Add that to also being in and out of school due to COVID. I am one of the lucky individuals to have not caught it yet. However, there have been a few people in my year group at school who have caught it which led to us having to isolate in November. Then after Christmas, Boris Johnson, the UK Priminister, put the country into a full lockdown again which meant that all schools had to close from the 04/01/2021 until 15/03/2021. My year group was back in school for around a week until a whole class contracted COVID and so we all had to isolate for 10 days again!
Then this week my exams began! I’ve had eight this week. Monday: History (Elizabethans) and English Language Paper 1. Tuesday: Biology and Maths Paper 1. Wednesday: History (Public Health) and English Language Paper 2. Friday: English Literature Paper 1 and 2 and French (Listening). Next week I have; Monday: Maths Paper 2 and History (America). Tuesday: Chemistry. Wednesday: French (Reading). Thursday: Physics. Friday: French (Writing).
They’ve been super stressful but I think I’m doing okay so far (she says and then fails all of them).
So, there are all the reasons that I have been rather absent recently. After my exams finish next week, I should finish four weeks after that for my summer holidays before I go to sixth form so I will be able to up the content then.
We also found out at school that we will be getting a prom. Isn’t that exciting? Comment below if you have any ideas on a blog I could make around prom.
How have you been doing recently? Been busy or taking it slow? Are you keeping relaxed and grounded when you can? Self-care and mindfulness is important.
