I got my results on Thursday and the breakdown this morning and a run through by one of my teachers yesterday, so I am ready to blog about it.

So I have enrolled and I am taking Graphics, English and ICT. I have dropped Economics, because I didn’t understand any of it until the morning of the exam.

I am going to resit all of the A2 General Studies exams (if they are free) and hopefully get my 2 year average up to a A rather than a B. I got CCE, but that was pulled to a B by my AS Level AAB.

I am also going to resit one of my English exams that I got a C in and try and pull it up to a higher B or an A.

I am going to resit both of my ICT exams, which I got a BC in to get an AA, because I really need a A in that subject.

I am also going to resit the exam I got a D in in Economics, hopefully get it up to a B, but that is rather unlikely.

So wish me luck, either on getting better results next time or on getting the £60 I need to pay for all of the resits. Don’t get me wrong I am actually quite happy with my results, but I need a AAB for University and I only got a ABB (general studies is excluded), so that will be a lot of pressure for my final year.

How did you do? I hope you did well and good luck to people getting their GCSE results soon.

Wow.. you were really given the wrong medicine? Nice competence. Seriously.

Loads of people left a simular comment. I went to the doctors showing the same symptoms as I did a few months a go, so they gave me the same anti biotics and sent off a urine test. It takes about 4 days for the urine test results to get back from the test centre, so when they got it back, it showed that this infection was slightly different to my last one and needed a different brand of antibiotics to fight it effectively. So they rang me to go in and get the new ones.

Also, what AS subjects did you take? I sit mine in Oct/Nov :S

I did a whole blog in dedication to your question =D I did General Studies (compulsory), ICT, Graphics, English and Economics. You have probably read my results if you are reading this.

I am surrounded by idiots, or I am really intelligent and everyone else is just of average intelligent and since I do not realise my great intelligence I think they are all idiots rather than average. However I am going to stick with the statement that I am surrounded by idiots … at least until I get my AS Level results on Thursday lol

As you know off my last blog, I am urinating blood, due to a urine infection, well I got a phone call off the doctor’s receptionist today, saying that I was given the wrong anti-biotic. Don’t you have to have loads of qualifications to be a doctor? I was wondering why they were not working as quickly as they usually do, but thought I would finish the course before complaining, as I am secretly a nice person.

Also I was in work yesterday and the store opens at 10:30am for “browsing time”, but people cannot be served until 11am, since by law you and only be open x amount of hours on a Sunday. Even though everyone gets told this one there way in, people are still wondering why there are no cashiers around and set out to complain to everyone they see.

This women was at my station (I work on the balloon station) and she was like “I want to buy these balloons” so I politely explained that since it was 10:40am I couldn’t. She stands there at my desk looking really unhappy and angry while I make a balloon display. When I can serve her, she says “you should have used the time that I was waiting here to sort out your till” wtf? All I had to do was log in, which takes all of 2 seconds and if I logged in too early it would have timed out and I would have to log in again to serve her.

Oh my god, that sickness sounds awful. I can’t imagine how scared you must have been to pee and find blood! Seriously, I think I would faint.

I was not really that scared actually, since this has happened before, so basically I was all hmm urinating blood again, ring doctors get anti-biotics and be all better. When I noticed, it was not a huge amount of blood, otherwise I would have fainted since I am not good with blood.

Man I don’t even know what to say right now about you even trying to go into work while you were urinating blood. That’s just crazy.

- Cetta

I went into work, because I could, the pain killers meant that I was not in pain (I did not feel sick off them when I went into the house) and the urinating of blood only really effects me when I am urinating and I wasn’t planning on urinating around the store lol. I need the money basically, since I have a £350 transport ticket to buy at the end of the month.

I feel like I am six foot under. I have been really ill for the last two days and I hate it, but honestly who actually like being ill.  Basically, I got cystitis that resulted in me urinating blood and being sick from the pain that this caused in my stomach. This has happened before, so I got an emergency appointment 30 minutes later with my doctor, who gave me:
1) Anti-biotics for the infection.
2) Tramadol, a pain killer for the pain.

Usually tablets that say “cause drowsiness” have no effect on me and I am as lively as usual, but these killed me, I was sooo tired it was unbelievable. I also had work on the night, so I went in and only lasted one hour, before I was sick and go sent home. Moral of the story is do not take mild pain killers before going to the doctor and then taking super strength pain killers (usually given to people in hospital), so basically I accidental overdosed as I forgot about taking the first lot of pain killers.

I went to work this morning and managed a four hour shift feeling like shit, I am now lying on the sofa feeling sorry for myself with a slight headache, but feeling better.

I am a self proclaimed drunk driver, not the sort that gets drunk then gets into the car, but the sort that get into the car and then get drunk.

I have just finished my second driving lesson and I feel hungover, I have that tired feeling where nothing seems to focus right for you except for the one thing you are doing, everything else feels like really really distant background noise. I think this is unusually, most people say that after driving for the first few times they feel free or trapped as they have been free in the car or they feel emotions such as excitement … shock … happiness etc. But I feel hungover.

It is a widely known fact that driving when drunk is bad, so why is it that now when I am learning to drive, trying to focus on the road, the cars, the hazards, the clutch, my speed and the gear that I am in is that I feel drunk. I feel as though I am doing everything subconsciously and it is not as though I have been driving for decades and just know. It is a really odd feeling.

How do you feel when you drive?
How did you feel when you first drove?

Updates
I have added a money page, take a look at it and join a few websites for a little extra pocket money.

Okay maybe the opening is not that grand, I have not managed to get in contact with the Queen to cut the shiny red ribbon to open this website, but it is open none the less. I would not say the website is “complete” it is not even close, but it is inhabitable with the layout sorted and the blog up and running. You will notice pages popping up here and there within the next few weeks, so check them out.

I feel like I am new to web designing as it has been quite a while since I had a website, so if anyone has any compliments or constructive criticism to make, both are greatly welcomed, but the first is preferred as I am sure everyone will agree.

This blog has been inspired by Sex and the City in the way that things that happen in their lives are written in a more round about way, so that people can relate to it. This will probably become apparent in my next few blogs, as I think it is a better way of writing than the “I did this and this and this and a little of that” which can get a little boring and monotonous in my opinion.
