Blah Blah Blah

I know, I know…I know I haven’t blogged for a while now. And that isn’t really my fault, I am not going to come up with some made up excuse, instead I might as well tell you why I haven’t blogged for a while now. Blame school! Besides it hasn’t been really too long since I last posted something here, it’s only been almost 2 weeks. So no biggy.

Back to the subject, ‘school’, my final year at sixth form, my final year of actual high school life, my final year of my A-levels, my final year of college and my final year in the building that I have spent about 7 years in. (Just to let you know when I say ‘final year’ I mean from September 2009 to June 2010).

Ahh, thinking of it makes me want to run around. But I have to admit that I’m deeply going to miss this school when I’ve left, with held memories. Other than that this year has probably been one of the worse years so far, mostly because everything seems full of frustration and promptness. Applying for uni’s, writing personal statements, getting references, getting work experience placements, trying extremely hard in exams/studies, trying hard in getting tops in coursework’s, deadlines to be met, sister’s wedding plans, driving lessons, trying to get my book at least quarter way through…blah blah blah. But right now what’s standing out most for me is the upcoming exams in January and how I’m going to reach to that stage, for a starter I think I have put on a self fulfilling prophecy by believing that there is no way I’m going to pass my Sociology exam in January. And I pick on my sociology subject mostly because since being back at school at the starting of September I haven’t learnt a single thing, I haven’t had a teacher to teach me and my sociology class and we are not going to be getting a sociology teacher until after the one week half term. So I’ve decided to use my EMA money and buy some text books and learn myself, regardless of if there will be some stuff that I might not understand, I’m better at learning when discussing sociology topics with someone, rather than just reading out of a text book and then forgetting everything that I’ve just read the next five minutes. So I’m a verbal learner.

Although the sixth form head manager has told us that we will be having a official sociology teacher after that half term…but what’s the point then, we will only half 1 month and a half to prepare and learn the topics we were meant to be doing before 18^th December, because then there will come the Christmas holidays! – More joy!

Ok next topic, ‘university’…I have no idea why I am applying for uni when I believe that I have such a small percentage of actually getting in. – such a low lack of self confident! Also I will be crazily applying for uni’s that are out of my area; in another city…therefore I will be living ALONE! Without my mummy, how will I cope?! (calms down) well that’s only if my parents are ok with me moving away…the only thing that I really want to do is this amazing course that is opened for Muslim girls, where we learn Islamic science, grammar in Arabic, the history of Islam and learn parts of the Quran. I think it’s fantastic…but it’s in Nottingham which is about an hour and a half drive away from home, the even better thing about this course is that I can get into teaching – a goal to my dream and I get a degree – a goal to my parents dream.

And oh yeah, talking above moving away…OMG! I’m going to Belfast! Away from home for 3 days for the first time ever…ahhhh, whooo!

Its part of enrichment that I’m taking part in at school, something called ‘Via Media’, it’s pretty cool. Learnt the history of Palestine and Israel, learnt about so called Extremism and Terrorism, found it quiet interesting. Anyway…the most shocking thing is that I couldn’t believe that my parents agreed to let me go to Belfast. There will definitely be a blog about this, I don’t know when I will be going yet though, I assume sometime in November.

At least that’s something to be told as good news.
