Waiting....

Ah, for the 4th year in a row, it is time to wait for results day. Now, aside from this one being the most important, it is also, for me, the one that is causing me the most worry. I mean, it's bad enough that if these ones don't go ok, I don't get my first choice at uni, but also, I don't have anything huge before them to take my mind off them. Year 10 wasn't so important, but still, my first proper exams meant a lot to me. Luckily for me (in some ways) I was away in Holland for results day and just before, so I had something to take my mind off it.

Year 11 I was in Cornwall before the dreaded GCSE results, and had other stuff on my mind, so leading up to that day, I didn't really think about them. Got back just before the day and I don't remember being nervous or anything.

Last year for most of the summer I was in Greenland and so again, had something to take my mind off it. And even after I got back from G-land, I had a lot of other stuff going on in my life (for once) so was thinking about that more than what my results were.

But this year, for the most important set of them, I have no big expedition, or holiday before the day, and no drama going on, so yeah, unfortunately I'm more nervous.

Shame. I wish some drama would unfold or suddenly it's the 19th of August.

Actually, scrap that, I got important things to do before then :)
