Hey
there.
Okay,
so I've been really super bad at posting on here recently, and that's the
reason for the title. I know I never
said I was going to post according to a timetable, or upload things on a
specific day every week or so, however, I still feel bad. Maybe it's because my last two posts were so
close together...
In all honesty though, I've been so swamped
with school work. We have roughly 2
weeks left (not including our Easter holiday) before we go off on exam leave
and leave high school forever. It's pretty scary, if I'm honest. I'm really not looking forward to our last
ever day, I'm sure it's going to really sad, and I won't cope well. Anyway, my classes have been piling on the
work load since we have to get all the courses finished in the allotted time,
which means very little free time for me. As well as classes, we have sixth-year-type
things to organise like yearbook, the Leavers dance (which I'm on the committee
for), leavers hoodies, final assemblies, plans for next year etc. Although even writing it down, it doesn't seem
much, I'm the worst for procrastinating so of course, I've left it all to the
last minute... Not sensible.
I'm
going to write out my classes, and the things I have to complete before the
start of exam leave/Easter holidays:
Higher
Graphic Communication:
I need to complete a 12 paged (A3 size paper) thematic unit on a
household item (I chose a plug..). This
consists of 5/6 hand-drawn pages, including rendered graphics, and 6/7
computer-based sheets using AutoCAD Inventor and Publisher.
Higher
Philosophy: Let
me start by saying that I love this subject but at the same time it just
destroys your brain. We have 2 units
still to finish completely, which will include essays and past paper questions,
no doubt
Advanced
Higher Art: Thankfully
for art we have until the beginning of June to send off our portfolios and
dissertations but this means our class will have to continue coming into school
to finish it whilst everyone else is off.
I need to start and finish my 2000 word dissertation, complete my outfit
which I've not done a great deal of AND have enough work to fill 10 to 18 A1
sheets. I plan on making a post on my AH
art stuff once it's completed, as I'm hoping it will turn out well!
Luckily, I only do 3 subjects this year, but
Advanced Higher art is double the work load of a normal class, which also means
it is double the stress.
That's
all for this post! Not very exciting, I
know, but I will try to do some better posts as my school stress and work load
start to die down. Until then, you'll
have to deal with very small and irregular posts on here. I will TRY and do a Feb/March favourites at
some point next week/weekend, but I'm not making any promises!
Have
a good week.
Iona
