That time of year again

Aug 14, 2008 11:44

Yep, once again results day is upon us, probably the most important results I've ever had, considering they decide upon whether or not I make it to uni. Fortunately though, I managed it and will be heading off to Leeds in September ^^ I didn't sleep that well last night from worrying and was woken at a ridiculous time in the morning by the neighbour's cat yowling outside since they'd left it out in the rain ¬.¬ What sleep I had was full of the typical results day dream, it was fairly boring, I checked ucas to see if I'd been accepted to uni but it had a little refresh icon next to Leeds and wouldn't tell me. Then when I got my results they were censored so I couldn't read them XD How unfair. Last year's dream was much more interesting, we had to ice skate up to school and I kept falling over whilst everyone else whizzed past me holding their results. In the end someone gave me a hand by giving me an almighty shove which just ended in me on the floor again ^^
Anyway, today, first thing I did when I woke up was check ucas, luckily it let me see my uni choices and it even said congratulations. I'm afraid to say I started laughing hysterically when I saw that, I'd gotten myself so worked up, I'd convinced myself I was going to fail biology XD
So, results: Maths - A (not surprising, maths has always been my best subject, I'd have cried if I'd gotten anything less XD)
Biology - B (also not surprising, I found the exams really hard this time around, I'm just annoyed that I only got a D for my coursework, I'm sure I should have gotten higher, or if not that my teacher could at least have told me how to improve it ¬.¬)
Chemistry - B (I'm a little fed up with this grade, I did loads of chemistry revision, I wanted to do well, I didn't improve my resit grade either.)
History - C (Again, not a surprise, I knew I'd do badly in History, I hated it this year, only surprise is that I was a couple of marks off a B, tight markers...oh, and everyone's coursework was marked down, we were all told we'd get As for our coursework, but I got a C ¬.¬ or a B, I'm not actually sure which module was the coursework, but still...)

Overall, I could have done better, but I'm not too bothered, I got into Leeds and that's all that matters. I just wish my mum was happy with my results, she's pleased I got into uni, but she thinks I should have done better and even said she was disappointed. I don't see why she had to tell me that though, she could have at least said well done, my dad did. Bah, who cares anyway, I did my best, if she's not happy it's not my problem.

Hmm, slightly old news, but I've been to see the new Batman film XD It was awesome~ I loved it, I didn't think I'd enjoy it as much as I did, given that I'm not a huge fan of superheroes and hadn't seen any of the other films. To be honest, I think it was Heath Ledger's Joker that made it so amazing, I was on the edge of my seat every time he appeared! And to think, I didn't even know who he was until recently... I want to know the real story behind those scars now, but I don't suppose it'll ever be revealed TT.TT

We now have actual health and safety procedures at Langlands XD Well, they were probably always there, but since they changed their advisor or whatever they've been a bit more vocal about it, I actually had to sit down and talk about health and safety and sign forms. So now I know where the fire assembly point is, it only took them what, 5 months to tell me? XD But it means I have to be more careful when clearing tables, I have a habit of carrying trays which are too heavy for me (I'm lazy, I want to get it over with quickly) but now if I do I might get official warnings and stuff. Oh well, it just means I have to think a little bit more now...

I think I've officially dropped out of DDD TT.TT I missed the activity check and to be fair I haven't been on for the past month. I was always very lazy, but a whole month is a long time, they at least deserve someone who's willing to play the characters regularly, rather than when they feel like it. Didn't I say this would happen when I started? XD I'm sure I'll find some motivation one day.

I've been on a bit of a Bleach marathon recently, I've seen about 60 eps in a week, it's about time too, I hadn't watched any at all this year, I considered giving up on the series altogether this year, but I'm glad I didn't, I've been loving it especially now I've started the Hueco Mundo arc, I'm near the end now, then it'll be fillers again TT.TT I'll probably stop watching for a while and pick it up again in a few months, I prefer to watch several eps in one go rather than one a week. I'm also planning on rewatching FMA sometime soon, I just found myself thinking about it and now I really want to watch it again. It's unusual I watch a series twice, but FMA is just special like that XD

Waaaah, I can't wait to get my uni welcome pack XDDD It's all so exciting! I want to know where I'm going to live and when I can go and everything XD Watch as I go and it's rubbish and boring...
