So, how's school?..

Hello everyone
so for this blog I have decided to talk about how I am dealing with year 11,(quick note if you don't live in the UK, year eleven is the last year in main school). Also this blog may turn into a massive vent but it has to be done, ha!

Obviously, I am only into the year by one term but already the pressure is pretty intense. This could be because two of my optional subjects are 60% coursework (art and music), which is just horrible. But the real reason is the teachers, because they mention the limited amount of time probably every second of every day, this is so infuriating for someone like me, who knows the amount of time before exams and how important this year is.

Another thing is when you come to making the decision of GCSE options, PLEASE ,PLEASE,choose wisely because I guarantee you will look back on your options and think "why did I choose that?". I took Business, Geography, Music and Art. I love Business and geography. I like music and art is ok , even though its a lot of pressure and a lot of deadlines to meet.(Please don't take this as 'don't take this subject as you will hate it' ).
Also I was 13 when I chose my options, so I didn't know what I wanted to do when I left school, now two years later I have a much clearer idea. Which means now looking back there is two subjects that would have been better for my suited career path, I can take them hopefully for A level.

Even though the pressure is a lot, the teachers keep stressing me out and I have a few small regrets. I am so content at my school and I have always been happy with my school life and my amazing friends.

I suppose the main thing I want you to take from this blog is that, school can be stressful and some days you can't be bothered to get up and go in. But the purpose is to help us and give us 'skills for life' (so cliché I know). So try and stick with it and keep smiling.

I hope you enjoyed this read today, Hopefully you have a lovely week.

Love,
