Mocks Finished | Catching Up | Christmas Plans 2014

Woaahh. I can explain everything.

EXAMS.

I have literally had no time to myself for the last 3 weeks because of my mock examinations that took place. The first week started off with a 10 hour art exam (in complete silence), drama rehearsals and performances (which meant I unwillingly had to stay at school until 6.30 on both days which led my mum worrying and coming to find where I was). The other two weeks were full on exam, revision, lack of sleep, fatigue, coffee and exams (3 exams a day some days!)  You can probably tell I was drained out....

One thing to bare in mind during difficult situations like this is:

If Katniss Everdeen survived The Hunger Games (twice),
Than you can survive Mock Exam Week (twice).

Words of wisdom just there.

Now its all finished and I am free for the rest of the Christmas break! My friend and I celebrated with a coffee and cake date where we looked at the food longer than we ate - I got a Banoffee Pie (which was 70% cream) and we enjoyed a latte from her coffee machine that makes me jealous every time I step into her kitchen.


AND NOW FOR THE EXCITING PART - SPAIN!

Oh yes. You read it right. Spain.

More specifically, my family has planed to go to Malaga for 10 days and I am more than excited! (hence all the exclamation marks) This is the only thing that has got me through the last few weeks of misery. You should look at some of my first posts on my amazing (but unfortunately short) trip to Los Angeles here :)

Let me know what your plans are for the Christmas break - Are you travelling anywhere or spending time at home with your family? I would love to know :)

A Sunday's Unwind...

Sunday Funday.

I like that.

A lot.

After a week of school, work, revision, work, lack of sleep, stress and everything else annoying in this world (which includes walking to school in the wind and creating a mess of my newly washed, blow dried hair - as you can see I have been working on a solution for  here) a Saturday's sleep in and my Sunday Routine is the most relaxing and appreciated thing in the week.

Even after a week of hard work my dad finds that 'The whole house should not be sleeping until 9am' is the right statement to be making. How ridiculous.

My Sundays goes a little like this:

- I usually get up at 8am, hope that its sunny (that hope soon fades away as its no longer summer),  then get dressed, put on the washing and eat my hot apple oatmeal which I usually eat before my run for energy.

- As fast as I can, I start to hoover the house; I figured there are always ups and downs with living in a 3 floor house... I mean it take a damn hour to hoover it all.

- I'm always being told off for being late everywhere, but they don't understand it not always me. I get dragged into all sorts of things (mostly tidying up my little brother and sister's mess) so I'm mostly late to my '10 o'clock' run with my friend.

-I love running! It seriously wakes me up and clears my mind ready for another week at school. It is getting colder so it's going to get increasingly difficult to get me out and running especially in the gloomy drizzles.

- Once I get home I have the 'worlds longest shower', put on a facemask, dry my hair and eat (an exciting) lunch.

I usually do some art homework, get my bag and lunch ready and chill.

I can confirm that this is so much more awesome than it sounds, seriously.

Just imagine if no one came up with the idea of having a 'weekend' ?

What does your weekend usually consist of? Let me know :)
