I’m so glad the Leaving Cert’s over, unbelievably happy. The amount of stress put on 6th years all over Ireland is insane. On the first day we went in, to do English I remember people even crying. The pressure that lays on our shoulders for those 10, or however many exams is ridiculous. I really hope they introduce the continuous assessment idea soon, it would be so much better. In my opinion anyway. As for English itself I was really happy with the paper. Eavan Boland you legend, although I was considering the Frost question too. Maths was okay too. Paper 2 went so much better than paper 1 though. Geography was an utter disaster, but hopefully with my biome question and my fieldwork project I can scrape a pass. Irish went surprisingly well too, the poems, stories and history I had learned all made an appearance. Business went well too I thought, I hope so anyways. French is another one of those, ‘I’m really only doing it because I have to and I hope I pass it somehow’ situations. The fact that my French oral went awful didn’t really help my case either. With Biology I was in my element. It also really helped that Photosynthesis didn’t come up, or Sexual Reproduction both human and plant didn’t come up either. All in all I need about 440 or 450 points to do Science in college. So fingers crossed. Hopefully I improved from a C3 in English. I haven’t really settled into the routine of not having school yet either. I’m so used to worrying and being stressed that I can’t quite remember how not to do it. I hope to work on more songwriting during the summer and also learning how to drive. I cannot wait to fly over to England next week either. A bit of celebrating is in order, as it’s my friend’s birthday on June 27th. I keep feeling like I should be studying, it’s awful. As you can see I’m not very good at blogging either, it’s only my first time. Not really sure I should keep doing it either because no one wants to read about this stuff. Anyways, time for some Zombieland

Peace x
