Summer is over! Time to get busy

Hello there, time for another irregular blog! A lot has happened i mean... a lot! Lets bullet point it down:

• Exams: I got a nasty nasty chest infection which affected the whole of my exam period. I've never been ill during exams, i've never had such bad luck. But alas i got on with it, wheezing my way through em. But i failed 2 and got shit marks on all of them. I cried ALOT. The prospect of having to retake 2 and not graduate with my friends wasn't what killed me inside... it was the fact i'm stuck with a crap degree and THIS CHANGES EVERYTHING....


• So i retook, and am waiting my exam results. The annoying thing was... the amount of revision i did was miniscule. My own fault really... although i will blame the uni for messing me about and giving me my exam timetable ONE WEEK BEFORE THE BLOODY EXAMS!!!


• I have started preparations to study medicine. I figure out in order to get into medical school now, i'm gonna have to show some welly, since my degree is one bigass fail! I actually was stalking the NHS jobs website for some good experience and came across a ward volunteer role. I had an interview and got it :D perfect experience. I'm also tryna get a full time job doing something along those lines to save for those pesky £9000 a year fees. As for UCAS, i have written my personal statement and am about to apply... this blog about to liven up!

Phew!

Exams

For me, all my time at the moment is going into revision, revision, revision. I have 5 exams, but i failed 3 of my essays last term and haven't been allowed time to redo them, so have gotta work extra hard! Don't ask about failing, It was entirely my fault, i lacked motivation and was pure lazy, worked too much at job and when i was at the computer, I was not on word :/ I have made a revision schedule and so far so good :) My boyfriend has been super motivating, making sure i don't get off track or distracted by YouTube. However bang in the middle of my exams I am moving house and have a million boxes to pack before i do, and the sad thing is I'm moving apart from my boyfriend. Not for relationship reasons just money reasons, so I'm moving in with some pals in a lovely house. I have been looking at jobs for the year off, as i don't want to stay in my retail job because it doesn't pay enough for the amount i have to save. I'm mainly trying to get my foot in the door of the NHS or something along that route just for work experience or a caring environment. Can only look good right! I have purchased my books for summer GAMSAT revision and can't wait to get stuck in, but they have been hidden away as i fear they will distract me from... sigh... law. cue yawn and cue revision. PS: Watched the junior doctors programme! Gutted its finished! I really enjoyed it and it was a wonderful insight into my possible future!

The Plan

Its been a while since my first post but not much has changed if I'm honest! I am now in my 3rd year of uni still studying the dreadful LAW!! I'm a few months off graduating- so so close yay! I have now made my game plan and a lot has changed with my game plan since Mr Cameron was appointed our prime minister. With this sudden rise in the Uni fees I'm going to take a year out after this and work for a year raising money to cover costs such as tuition and travel since I wont be able to apply for another student loan. During this year out I'm going to study the sciences, which I am soooooo excited about!! I absolutely love science, but my mind has forgotten a fair bit since high school! Hello 5 years! I'm not going to be taking any courses, just got a bunch of alevel and GSCE books to study from, from home ( I sometimes get distracted and read them when i should be reading up on my law! DOH). Sometime in September I am going to apply to my chosen medical schools (I have 4) and get ready for the GAMSAT and all that jazz, eeeeeek! Over the summer I am travelling for a month which i kinda regret now, but hey ho, I have to much to save for and too much to do!!
SO that's where I'm at, I'm going to be documenting a lot more when things actually get going!
So ta ta for now :)
