Everything that's getting me down can go fuck itself.
I don't need a reference, or predicted grades to tell me what I'm capable of.
If teachers can't see how much effort I'm putting in, then to hell with them.
With the predicted grades I've got I'm only gona be put through on clearing, and they're not gona look at my personal statement for that so why waste time on making it perfect.
Why waste time and effort on essays, homework and assignments when teachers dont even go by it to see your potential and when the only thing that counts for your grade is coursework and exams.
Scotty just gave me about an hours talk on well.. REALITY.
and it all made sense, and im grateful for that because i was really close to giving up.
"No 17/18 year old should be going through this. A 17/18 year old should wake up thinking 'oh i wonder if my boyfriend/girlfriend's texted me, or i maybe i should text a certain friend so we can get together and go shopping or i wonder what i'll have for lunch today.' But because of the fucked up education system in this country most of us wake up thinking 'oh i wonder what lie im gona make up and tell my economics teacher so i dont get a bollocking for not doing the essay."
thats exactly what I was saying a few days ago!
that no one my age should face this much stress and responsibility
Well basically
fuck them =]
i know what im capable of
i'll put in the study that i need to, and i'll trust myself to do the best i can, their words on my reference and their predicted grades mean nothing to me.
if they honestly think the world is that black and white, that it all comes down to 'oh they show up to lessons, they must know the stuff' then they're all fucking warped, because im getting more work done at home them i am at school, and im going to biology and chemistry lessons already knowing whats being taught from reading in the text books a week or so ago.
i need a drink =]
