Oh great.

For my A Level results today, I got an E in General Studies Module 3, E in Core Mathematics 3, and a D in Physics Module 4. Not bothered about General Studies, expected an E in C3, and am so happy with a D in PA04.

For my resits, I got two fewer marks in S1. That, I'm not so bothered about, as that was just for the sake of it. However, for ICT1, I gained four marks. Which makes me slightly happy, even though I thought the exam went really well. Which kind of sucks. It also puts me at 239/300 for my AS grade. Which is not an A. By one mark. Fail.

Spring '09 Exams – Day 1

General Studies was pointless to be honest. Mainly because I didn't know what to write.

To be honest, I'd attribute that to how bloody freezing that room was.

ICT, however, was amazing. Almost everything I revised was not used, however, I was still confident with 55/60 marks, which I am extremely happy with.

Three to go.

I need to post more regularly.

I really do. As otherwise, I say nothing, then I have really long and silly posts. Like this one.

For university, I have two offers of 260 UCAS tariff points to Derby and Sheffield Hallam, and I have been requested to go to an interview for a potential offer for Teesside. However, the interview is scheduled right on top of my exams in January, which in all honesty, is quite inconvenient. However, I do have an offer for my favourite university, which is awesome.

Hmm. In Burnout Paradise, I got my Burnout License. Only 105 events to go until I get my Burnout Elite license. Yayy. Something like that, anyway.

I was quite ill last week. And to anyone that was wondering, that still doesn't know, I was asleep in the week. I just felt completely dead, and was coughing up blood and stuff like that.

Nationwide finally sent me the cheque for their silly accounts merger thing. Therefore I have £50, which should be nice to spend on something. Rock Band 2, or maybe some dollars. As it's Vegas in eight weeks.

That kind of scares me, however, as that means exams are in five. Two Maths modules, one Physics module and one ICT module, plus a General Studies module that'll finish my AS off. I've got some good resources though, all of the ICT and Maths papers with Physics coming next week, as well as a very useful ICT textbook.

However, I am currently not learning from the resources. They just exist. Like, I have a Maths mock in the next few days, and I am still not aware of C3 trigonometry. Or, on the coursework side of things, I've done very little towards the ICT that was due in on Friday, (to be honest, I was really ill, to the extent that I wasn't on the computer for most of the week) and absolutely nothing at all towards the stuff that's due in this week. And overall in Physics, I haven't really thought about it.

I should probably do some Maths or ICT now, but blogging about not doing it is much more interesting.

Hmm, other things. In World of Warcraft, I hit Level 80. And I'm slowly gaining Level 80 gear that's replacing my outdated Level 70 gear, which is good. 2800-odd achievement points too.

Fall Out Boy's new album is quite fun, not really enjoying it yet. I'm sure I will soon.

Bowling for Barndardo's tomorrow. I don't have a sponsor envelope yet. I could see that being a problem to be honest. I do have all my money, so I just need to sneak into the office and get one. Should be fun.

I think that's everything, to be honest. Should be fun seeing someone tomorrow, haven't seen anyone since Wednesday two weeks back. Awh.

Today was a stress free day.

It really was, S1 went well, and a big who cares to General Studies. =)

General Studies Today

Five people turned up. And they all got EMA.

Shows student interest in the subject, eh?
