I Got Into University!

As I sit at my laptop writing this out, I still cannot believe I got into University today. I didn't really sleep well knowing that within 12 hours I could be celebrating that I got in or crying that I didn't. But as I woke up at 6am, I calmed my nerves and got ready for what I knew would have been an emotional day.

As the time got closer to 8am, I was told Track was open. This is where I could see if I got into Derby Uni or not. I was so nervous. I knew I had tried my best but I knew that it could be the other way and I should have tried harder. I typed in my credentials and pressed enter. I covered my hand over my phone screen as I couldn't look. I was so nervous.

Eventually, I uncovered my hand and saw I had got into Derby University. I couldn't believe it and I instantly started crying because I knew my best had paid off and even though I didn't know my grades, I was and am so happy I got into my first choice uni!


I honestly can say that my life is starting to get better and getting into Uni has made me proud of myself and I hope my mum is proud of me for all that of I have achieved and what I will achieve in the next 3 years.

I cannot wait to start Univeristy and am so happy I got in. Thank you to everyone who supported me through everything, I cannot thank you enough for the support I have received from everyone. Thank you.

I hope you got/get the results you hoped for and you got into the University you wanted. So raise a glass, drink some alcohol and party as theres 3 weeks left of the summer till University. Bring on the rest of the sun!

The Last Year

So it's a new school year but this time for me, it's different. This year is all about getting the grades to be able to go to University next year. To cherish the memories I will make in the next year. I've started this blog because I love to write and I want to be able to do this weekly. Just touching on what's happened in the week and what's made me smile. Over the past few weeks, I have been on a roller-coaster of emotions. A lot of them were not good feelings and although some of those still remain, I am happy for once. I am happy because of the support I have from friends and family when telling them the problems I have and will be facing in the coming months. It's quite hard when you cannot tell anyone what you really feel when they ask how you are. You don't want to tell them to bring their mood down but you need to talk to someone. But right now, that is over with and i am enjoying the life I have. I am getting help for the problems I am faci...

Lego Tape - Review

I don’t know about you but if I could go back to my childhood and not grow out of Lego, I would. I came across this Lego tape online and oh my god I had so much fun with it.  So let me tell you why I am going to play with this Lego tape for the rest of adult life.   When it arrived, there were four packs with the colours green, red, blue and grey. Pretty good colours knowing I didn’t choose them. They came in around 1m strips and are quite flexible. Going to cut them, I found they were easy to cut into pieces, the only problem with this is you can’t put them back together. I found to tackle this is to put two strips together and they should line up and then bricks can be placed on them. Also, this means you can join different coloured strips with bricks and make what you are building more interesting. Before you get the strips you think about how much you can do with them and where to put them but when they get to you, your mind goes blank. I sat on my sofa and thou...

What to do when stressed...

What to do when you're stressed about deadlines... So as the end of my course looms upon me, I am stressing out as it's a lot of work for me to do in two weeks but here are a few things I have found to help with the stress. Eat Healthy  - If you eat pizza every day, the carbohydrates and fat in it with make you feel tired and grouchy. Have a chicken salad instead! The nutrients in the salad will awaken your senses and make you feel alive. Well, this is what it does to me haha! Eating carbs makes me feel tired therefore eating something acidic or sweet like fruit and vegetables will help keep you alert. Avoid drinking fizzy drinks as well. Try drink water or squash to keep yourself hydrated without the caffeine. Take Breaks - Try and do 40 minutes of work then take a 10-minute break. This helps your brain rest for the next 40 minutes of work. Have a drink and a snack in this time to keep your brain and body fed and so you can use your brain for your work! Also, you are ...
