AS Levels!

Hi! It hasn't been 4 months since I last posted a blog, it's a trick of the light, I swear! 

Sorry for being away, those of you who read my blog anyways :P

Since June, my time has been quite limited, I've finished my GCSE, received my results, went to Spain, started A-Levels and I've been settling into this way of working!

A-Levels, for those of you who know, is either amazing or horrific, and for me, it's amazing! I love my lessons, my teachers are great and I've made some great new friends as well as growing closer to my current friends. You get free 'study' periods, in which I spend most of my time working but I have fun with my friends in the odd free we have together.

My favourite lesson by far is art. Learning how to do portraits is an amazing skill to have and it's amazing how different the drawings look if you draw them in a different way! I love the whole experience of trying something new and growing up a bit more. Teachers trust you and treat you with respect and you can generally just chat to them. My maths class is a great example of this, and it's probably the most entertaining lesson I have! 

The only problem I have found so far is how tired it makes you! For the first week I was falling asleep at 7, when I used to fall asleep at 1! It messes with your sleeping pattern which can make you feel stressed but at the end of the day, I enjoy this so much more than GCSE year.
