White Blank Page

I'm a happy chappy. I've had a good week. Last week was long and slow and boring with no motivation and a lack of smiles. This weeks has been varied, it's gone quickly and lots has come out of it.

Thursday was As level results day. It also happened to be the same day I had a course for work so when everyone found out their results, I was sat in a room listening to some old guy waffle on about common sense. I could have rung the school but I couldn't stand the thought of someone reading my results to me! I went in at the end of the day and had to painfully wait while the teacher searched through every list trying to find my name.

I'll be honest I was expecting the worst, I'm aiming for As but was expecting Ds and Es. In the end I got AAB (As in Physics and Biology and B in Chemistry) which I was pretty chuffed with :) I'll have to resit the B which seems pathetic but I really do need an A to be a vet! As for the A in physics, that's a miracle! I cant wait to see my cocky teacher who told me I would never get an A however hard I worked.

As for the rest of the year group, there's a lot of disappointment. I've never heard so many Us and Es going round the place, it's mental. Thank God for resits!

Hope you're all good you were pleased with any results you've got recently :)

The Magic of a Kind Word

I really love letters, there is nothing better than finding a hand-written envelope addressed to you, amongst all the junk mail and bank statements. It's even better when it's not your birthday and you don't know who it's from :) I got a few cards congratulating me on my results, admitedly one was from my mum who's handwriting I'd recognise a mile off!
Another was from one of my mum's friends from uni who we see once a year, she's so lovely and I thought it was really sweet that she sent me a card. The other was from one of my mum's work friends who I've met once or twice in my life!

I thought it was so lovely that they'd both bothered to congratulate me when they really didn't have to. It makes me think I sould send more letters and little notes as they really are nice to recieve :)

I hope you're having a nice day :) Georgina x

Viens Voir Happy Teenager

So...GCSE results. I wasn't going to write them on here but why not? I write this blog to be honest not modest. After all that anticipation and lack of sleep (I was up til 5am in the end) I got 7 A*s and 4 As and yes I was bloody surprised!! So many people got amazing results- most of my friends got all As and A*s, we're such geeks 8) So I spent the day a friend's house with a load of really happy people watching Mulan and our prom video :D My parents were really pleased with my grades and my grandma cried down the phone! She's usually a tough nut but she was so emotional!
In the evening I managed to get a plus-one to a party...it was a very select group of people, very much 'the cool kids' of our school so awkwardness was expected. We got there at about 9pm to find about 40 drunk kids, fun times :) It wasn't awkward- I just got drunk and stuck with the people I know :P We got kicked out at 11.30 so went to the park for a bit, I ended up getting home at 2.30 (my parents go to bed and trust me to get myself home) because the guys who walked me back were so slow! It was a good night, I'm glad I went, otherwise I would have been sat at home when I wanted to celebrate :D
Yesterday evening I went to a friend's house with a big group of people to watch movies :D We all snuggled up on the sofas with duvets all night :) Being cool we watched Robin Hood (the cartoon version :P) then Harry Potter, where we sat deciding who was which character (I'm Ginny :P) I ended up getting home at 1.30, ahh I do love the freedom of the holidays. I've had such a nice time recently hanging out with friends just being relaxed that I'm dreading getting up early and trying to find my way in a new school :/ Oh I'll leave it for another post :)

How did your results go if you got them on Tuesday?

Thank you for reading, Georgina xx

P.S. The title is from a song called 'Cooler Couleur' by Crookers. Check it out, it's a bit weird but had a good beat and the lyrics are pretty funny :)

Bonne Chance

So this is it...GCSE results day. Good luck to you all although it's twenty to three in the morning when I'm writing this so you probably won't read it until after you've opened that dreaded envelope.

I've had an alright day, mixed in with lots of nerves, stress and conversations about what would be 'disappointing' or 'adequate' or 'my highest expectation'. I'll be completely honest with you now, I don't have too much to worry about, seeing as all GCSEs count for is getting into college/sixth form and I am in the nice posistion to have that pretty much granted. Buuuut...this doesn't stop me being nervous!




I went to young farmers tonight (I basically started going as I want to be a vet and thought it would look good on the old CV, I am starting to enjoy it though!) But anyway, yer it was just a meeting in the pub- I told them about results day to which their reaction was "You've gotta get wasted tonight" After lots of persuasion they bought me a coke- "because we don't want to make it too obvious but don't worry it's got something stronger in" Hahaha gotta love em :) I don't know what they put in it but it tasted pretty good :L

Huh, I'm so worried. I am excited though. This sounds weird but it feels like Christmas...because of the anticipation. The big build up to one small moment, like opening a present that you might be disappointed with and have to wait a whole year for another...opening that envelope could be good or bad, it doesn't have too much impact on your life but still means a lot. I dunno, I just hope I do as well as I want- I worked hard, I could've worked harder but you always can.

Good luck everyone, I hope you all get the results that you were hoping for.

P.S. The original title of this post was 'bon chance' then I realised that's incorrect- now I'm shit scared about my french result!

A New Look

Hey guys, just thought I'd share the fact that my blog has a new look...well a new background :) I didn't want you to get confused and think you were on a random blog that you'd never seen before!

I finally cracked the blog background changing thing and decided to go for it. I dunno why it was pink before, I'm not a very pink person which will probably surprise you giving the old colour scheme :P The new one's very me, what do you think? Sort of union jack with a twist, actually the more I look, the more I like it! Next it'll be the header, it's getting a bit old now but I'll leave it there for a bit as not to confuse you too much!

Better get some shut-eye now. A-level results tomorrow (later actually cos it's 2am) good luck everyone! I've just done my GCSEs but I did As art early so I'm getting my result tomorrow. I'm not too worried seeing as I'm not carrying it on, I just hope it gets delivered (I didn't want to go into school to get it so I gave in an envelope apparently with the wrong stamp on so it won't arrive! Typical me)

Night, Georgina x
