it happened.

(disclaimer: no way am I trying to brag or anything of the sort)

hia!
sorry for the overdramatic title. this blog is a follow-on to my how to deal with tests and reports post.
so, yesterday I got my test results back for the maths test and I was quite surprised at my mark.

the highest in my specific class was 80% and the lowest was 39% the results were quite varied. if you were at the top of the class you were from 70% to 80% and you were in the middle you were from 50-69%.

I got 69% which meant I was just, just, juust below the top of the class and I got the 4th highest mark in my specific class. As you can (hopefully) guess I was really happy about that and, to be honest, it felt like a huge tone was lifted when I saw that little s- mark at the top.

In our school, we have a lot of ways of marking tests. basically, in our year you're supposed to get between d1, 2 and 3 c1, 2, 3 and s1,2 and 3 the highest being s3. s- meant s1, I was really chuffed!

I waited to do this blog today because my friends found out what mark they got this morning. my 2 best friends are in the highest group and they got in the high 80s and although I was happy for them I honestly could not give a frig if they got a lot higher then me. Mainly because I worked really hard and got a good mark for my class. plus, let's be real; who the hell needs to know the inequality of t on a number line in real life. Uh-hu!

To all my girls out there who have the slightest doubt that the people who got crazy high scores are better than them somehow, think again hun! We all have separate talents, we're all good at different things. that's the way it is. At least that's the way I think.

please share this blog's message with anyone who is struggling or stressed about exams and tests.

sorry, it was so short today. it's just a quick update.
short notice: thank for 100 subs, no way was I expecting that already, and a special shout out to buttingin@gmail.com for sharing the previous blog on exams with her group of friends who are going through mochs for gcses , wish you the best of luck!

7 Songs that...

snow-dance-alana-tousignant.jpg (900×675) (fineartamerica.com) Dear Reader,  This is a book blog, with a strange amount of Taylor Swift references sure, but a book blog still.  Today, I choose to write about music!  These songs, the 7 favourites and 3 honourable mentions I have picked are unexplainably attached to my mind. In this blog, I try to explain.  Let's get started:  1. "Heroes" by David Bowie  Despite my adoration of Bowie, who I own 1/2 of his discography on vinyl,  several vintage collectors magazines of, and 4 thrifted posters hung up in my room of- my attachment to this song, funnily enough sprung from my love of a book- so I would say is a great number one for easing my regular readers into this change of brand (don't worry this is a one time thing). To those who have digested the novel/film: The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky, you will know the scene where these characters, some of my all time favourites, drive through a ...

Just for December by Laura Jane Williams

Just for December by Laura Jane Williams: review Dear reader,  To Start with, thank you so much for the lovely girls at Avon Harper Collins for gifting me this proof around the holidays! This book was absolutely delightful, and extremely well timed. I cracked open this book on the same day the skies decided to comply with Michael Bublé and while it might not be a white Christmas, as the rain seems to have washed it away now, it made to be pretty idyllic conditions to read this book. I went into this book feeling festive and ready for something to give me all the fuzzy Christmas feelings, which it provided along with a lot more feelings than I predicted. Williams manages to craft cliches and worn-out tropes to make them seem like nothing of the sort and in fact- revive them. Enemies to lovers has not been done so humanly in a very long time, and all you have to do to see that statement holds meaning is scroll through my other reviews and see that the enemies to lover’s trope...

Before the coffee gets cold a book talk (Non-spoiler! You're welcome)

Before the Coffee Gets Cold: Amazon.co.uk: Kawaguchi, Toshikazu, Trousselot, Geoffrey: 9781529029581: Books Dear Reader,  This review will not contain spoilers, so feel free to read if you haven't yet read the book, and with that let's begin:  These stories definitely build in intensity as you plough on, with subtly building engagement. The first two stories for me provided little interest, a point at which usually I would choose to DNF and call my loses. However, something about the writing, simple but almost translucent into the lives of these individuals, gave me the impression that it had more to give despite the seemingly stagnant story endings.  I think the best way to describe my growth to loving this book is recognising the beauty within its simplicity. As a predominantly YA reader myself, I couldn't help but expect this book to tie up in a perfect interloping knot at the end. My hope of this, I see now, may have blinded me to the crystal  humanity being bare...
