The Horrors of 'A' Levels

Mood: Serious regret for procrastination (which I am still doing)

Music: Violet Hills by Coldplay
Books: No time to read bar any books on Appeasement
Films: Sex and the City (of course)

Well here I am again panicking about the lack of revision I have done and have to do. My first exam is on the 4th and lets just say, only one book has actually been touched. Last year I revised a lot harder, mainly because I had had glandular fever for the whole year and missed a LOT of school. Thus the fear of having to repeat a year of school meant I revised HARD. This year, I have a sure place at Bournemouth Arts Institute (all I need is an E in Photography which thank god, even without this years work I have got) and therefore my motivation to revise for the other, less important but much harder exams due to all the facts needed, is small! Overall the 2 A's and a B I am aiming for seems remote, and yet this still does not give me the kick I need to revise... now where's that Red Bull when you need it??!?!

Anyways, with Photography all complete I am off to display my favourite photographs for our end of year exhibition. This I have decided is the hardest thing with Photography. Being selective enough to choose just a few of your best work. I find it hard to refuse my favourite photographs, merely because they may not fit with any others. Or having only one spot left for a photograph when I have three that I want to display. No I am not being big headed... believe me, with the thousands of photographs I took this year there were a suprisingly small amount I was REALLY proud enough with to share with the public (by public I mean other pupils mothers and fathers). Yet there were still too many I wanted to put up in ratio with the room I am allowed... It's extremely dificult!

Well anyway. I really should start to attempt to read about Chamberlin and the policy of Appeasement... FUN STUFF! I hear you all cry.... bet you wish you could be me. 

I shall leave you with the words I found on a bracelet 'Take Chances. Find Your Passion' , words that I fully appreciate. No one will ever find that one thing they are passionate about without taking chances. For example Photography, a hard game get into. Yet I am taking the chance as it is definitely my passion.
