My life is...

Exams have taken over my life. No joking about here, they have. Sorry I haven't been posting recently but thats the harsh reality of my life. Trial exams, real exams, tests and homework are what I do all day every day. Gone are the days were I had bundles of free time that I could fill myself by watching tv or playing outside.


I really wanted to do some festive posts on baking and how I decorated for the festive season but I had no time. The only days I have had a rest was on Christmas Eve and the big day itself. And I'm sure all of you would understand that I wanted to spend that time with my family.

If you guys would like to a see a late 'What I Got For Christmas' comment below. Also speaking of comments answer the picture if you want. Is your life fun, exciting or dull like mine. No one will judge and if it is dull then I feel you.

Sorry, I know this blog needs some TLC but I have GCSE's in less than 5 months and I am sure you can all appreciate how hard that is. My life is being consumed by exams....


Thanks for understanding! Don't forget to follow if you want to be updated when I post 'What I Got For Christmas' if you guys want to see it.

Sorry for the short post...

Hugs,

Results Day Tips!

Ahh, the dreaded results day. They day that is marked on the calendar with a big fat red cross (and a sad face if your extra dreading it). The day where every living teenager is scared out of their wits for their future. Don't get me wrong this year I will be handed the envelope of misery, but I will be ready for anything. You see for last week I have been scouring the internet for tips on how to deal with my results, and with a bit of experience chucked into the mix I have created the ' Ultimate Guide to Results Day.' Here are ten (short but useful) top tips on surviving results day!

1. Charge your phone (trust me your parents will go mad if they don't know as soon as you've opened the envelope).
2. Get some rest! No irregular caffeine doses before/on the big day. You don't wanna be a coffee intoxicated bag of nerves.
3. If they are A-Level results draw up a list of alternative courses/universities you may want to apply to.
4. I always try to relax myself before results day so I am in the right frame of mind before I receive my grades. I take a relaxing bath but you could listen to music, bake, have a massage. Anything really (except coffee)!
5. Organisation is key ( A-Level) - Before ringing universities ALWAYS have your UCAS personal ID, Clearing number and details of your qualifications ready to give to the receiver.
6. Always do your research on courses, subjects and universities before applying.
7. Do whats you think is right for you - if you don't want to go into further education talk to your teachers, parents or a responsible adult about it before making the decision to get reassurance Remember you're not alone.
8. Eat a balanced breakfast- don't skip it, even if eating is the last thing on your mind.
9. Do not compare results- not with you friends, older siblings, no one. They are personal, focus on your ambitions and your own expectations
10. Stay Positive: the key is to always keep an open mind and if your unhappy with your results there is always clearing. 
Good Luck!
