Hello m'lovelies :)
So we're moving into the 6th month of 2013 and WOW! has it gone fast. I thought I'd do a little bit of a flashback to the start of the year to see what's happened since then, which surprisingly for my life, is a lot!!
Let's start with the new year resolutions shall we?
1. To stop biting my nails - well this has been one of my resolutions that i managed to stick to up until the point of getting stressed out with exams and doctors appointments and things. Plus at one point when my nails seemed to be getting to the point of no return.. they all broke, split or peeled because I forgot to look after them properly. Now that exams have gone and I have less stress in my life, I'm trying again and actually looking after my feeble excuses for nails.
2. To eat healthier - HA! This resolution has not gone well at all... I think like many other people I comfort eat when I'm stressed, upset or angry and in my own little world I didn't think that I'd gain as much weight as I have done in the past six months but sadly this is not the case. I think this is what has kicked me into gear and so I am going to actually start this resolution (never too late to start after all!) by eating healthily and going to the gym, as well as doing my physio exercises - we'll come onto that in a bit.
3. To learn to walk - Now if any of you reading this know me, you will know how stubborn I have been with walking and things like that. Luckily I have been out of "the chair" on and off since January/February time and have not been back in it since the end of March. I'm back doing my regular shifts at work as well as doing extra ones which I did not thing I would be doing anytime soon.
4. To learn to drive - I would say this is the one that has been the best resolution to stick to as I have had 13 hours of driving lessons so far and have loved it since I sat in the driver's seat!! (I even did a three point turn in my last lesson!)
5. To have at least one weekend without doing coursework/homework - This is one I can honestly say that I don't think this is going to happen at all until after Summer, purely because of my having a shaky start to the year because of my legs, meaning I am quite behind in my art coursework. Now I know it isn't good enough to make excuses and things, but when you are unable to control any part of your legs and need to use a sewing machine.. it's pretty hard to keep on top of units of work that seem to be flying by. Luckily I am beginning to catch up on the work I did not complete and will have Summer (even though it isn't ideal) to get on top of everything and get it out of the way before year 13 begins in September.
Now on to general life that I think you might want to know or be interested in.
I recently finished my AS exams and so I am beginning A2 things ready for the start of year 13. This has actually changed my mind about a lot of things, because I know that I want to do something arty at university (that's another thing I've managed to decide in the last couple of months) and so I know that it's the best decision if I drop either English Literature or History for September. Now at the start of the year I wanted to drop English Lit.... now I've turned the total opposite and am considering dropping History.. but I'm committing to anything yet until results day.. which at this moment in time is 66 days and 17 hours away.
Another big change that has happened is that I have responsibility at school! Let me explain... I have become the Deputy House Leader of one of the houses at my school which is a great opportunity to put my stamp on the school along with the other members of the house leadership team. If anyone knows me they know I can get a tad over competitive so this next coming year will be very interesting with this being a slight problem I have. If I win anything it's brilliant but if I lose... you will know about it, even if you don't care.
I think that is everything that has happened in the last 6 months of my 2013 and I promise I will be updating you more for the rest of the year now that exams have gone past and I have more free time.
