Life after College... And Sydenham Arts Festival 2013

So whats been happening in your lives in the past 3 months? For me- exams are long over as is work experience with the PR company, and I just started working at an advertising firm! Yep, graduated- the lot. I did mean to blog earlier, but I was so overridden with grief because I don't get my LAST OFFICIAL SUMMER HOLIDAY ( the importance of this warrants capital letters), and sad because I only just realized how much Im going to miss college. You know, the coming in 5minutes late and noone bats an eyelid, those people you get carried away with in the study room ( because if you sit in front of a PC with your books out while you chat and have a laugh, then you feel like youre being studious) but then realise you have a million essays to write, coursework to edit and hundreds of pages of revision to start ( if you've done A level psychology then you'll know that that is NOT an exaggeration). Good times. But I managed to get a but of time off, 3 weeks to be precise. So I got back into writing some poetry, got out to the cinema, did a bit of shopping in London with some friends and went and stayed with friends in Dartford.
Last weekend I went to this years Sydenham Arts festival to see my brothers work.
There was also some lovely ceramic pieces as well as handmade jewelry!
Some of the art GCSE students did a range of Roy Lichenstien's famous "M-maybe". Be sure to check it out next year!

Well, its Summer!

Sun's shining, its Saturday and Im going out later :) good times or what? Loads of parties and do's, parents anniversary to come too. Then exams in June and work experience! The countdown has officially begun! I only have 4 weeks until college is over FOREVER. Which i'm getting all sentimental over. I dont know whats on the horizon, I just know I'm scared! But where would the excitement be without the fear? 2013, bring it on.

Breaking the New Years clichès

Apologies for not blogging for a while. I've learned the true meaning of 'multi-tasking' as I've juggled revision for my upcoming psychology exam on the 16th (why Michael Grove decides to put A level exams right after the Christmas holidays when everyone is busy with Sales shopping and the X factor finals is beyond me).
As for the typical weight loss revolutions , my poor brother is currently on a strict diet for the next few weeks due to illness and is putting us all to shame with his amazing self control. Bless him. Me? Well I have spent the last few days shopping and saw the new year in with close friends on a sleepover. Tomorrow I'm up to Kent for another sleepover. Last minute fun before the dreaded "Crash Revision". So my lovely family will have to put up with my flustered pre-exam panic an I probably wont be able to talk much for the next two weeks, but I'm sure when I can, there'll be loads to tell!
