So today marked an exciting and rather petrifying stage in my school career; I started Sixth Form. Yes that means i have the stress and pressure of completing AS and hopefully A levels, whilst trying to maintain my social life and love life along the way.
The first challenge came when i had to not only drag myself but also my boyfriend out of bed. However i skipped out the door filled with great expectations and a stomach full of butterflies.Throughout the day i felt like i was surrounded by stereotypical "teacher parrots" all filled with hubris as they declared that we all needed to "Hit the ground running". Despite the anticipation and irritation of starting a new (rather pivotal) school year the day went off without a hitch and after while it just felt like another average school day, resulting in me dragging my feet home, collapsing on my sofa and vegging out by watching T.V.
Although the initial excitement is still there and i will still find joy in taking a new leap in my school set-up, i realise that i will hit the earth in a few days, the school work will pile up and a stressed Elly will emerge. So i guess i should treasure my adrenaline rush and hope for the best in my two last years of school. Well before Uni anyway.
