Start of a New Chapter

Hey guys,

With all the rage I had in my last blog post, I forgot to say how Results Day went. Anyway, all I'm going to say is that I had a C in Media which was completely unexpected considering the school didn't bother giving me revision and I had it of another girl in a Welsh school who didn't need the English revision notes. As much as my school has a good reputation, it was very poor with regards to helping the students on reduced time tables, such as myself. With English- the grade I needed to get into college- I had a D, purely because my English teacher didn't turn up to do the Speaking and Listening assessment with me, so they gave me a G. A G? How unfair is that? I didn't sit it because of her, so therefore... I got a G.

The day after results day, my mother and I had to go to confirm my lessons in college. Now, I thought I wouldn't be able to get in because I didn't have English, but that wasn't the problem. The college were great. They were confused about how the school could do that with my English and rang a few different places, but they didn't tell me what happened. Since I wanted to take Media Studies and I did have the C, they said that was okay and I could take photography in the day instead of English because it's not like necessary for me to take it. I could have taken it, but they said because I'm coming back into mainstream education, I might find it pressurising to have English as well as my other subjects and I could have more frees if I didn't take it. So I didn't take it.

I absolutely love my time table and I am really looking forward to starting next week. Here's my time table:

Look at all the free lessons! And no lessons Wednesday!
So yeah. That's it, really. My mother took me out to buy new clothes since we don't wear uniform. I'm really excited and it's awesome how relaxed the college is.

See ya.
