Just got to wait for results now. That's always the worst bit.<br /><br />Anyway, got a job over summer. Start tomorrow. Finished exams on Friday. No rest for me.<br /><br />It's with AQA, the exam board (pronounced A, Q, A - not aqua - only pointing this out because when I was trying to find the building I asked for directions and got giggles when I pronounced it aqua). It's my first proper Monday to Friday nine to five job.<br /><br />Means won't be able to do my one day a week work experience over summer. (See <a href="http://reflectionsofarambler.blogspot.com/2008/03/week-in-life-of.html">here</a> for a reminder). But hopefully plan to go back after I've finished with AQA. But when I go back the nice solicitor I have been working with won't be there. Sad about that. But on the bright side I found this really cheap shop where a bottle of water is under 50p and you can get three bottles of Pepsi for a pound :)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7372233876826834351-8476336610389445807?l=reflectionsofarambler.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>RoaRhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16005677333650591583noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7372233876826834351.post-23296211682951925372008-04-24T09:02:00.000-07:002008-04-24T09:18:29.371-07:00So, it's that time of year again. Exams.<br /><br />I've got 7 exams in May.<br /><br />I've organized everything into one file. It's so organized. It's got past questions in it with answers, mind maps and so on. I'm quite proud of it.<br /><br />But I still hate revising and exams.<br /><br />So, how do you revise?<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7372233876826834351-2329621168295192537?l=reflectionsofarambler.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>RoaRhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16005677333650591583noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7372233876826834351.post-58045882155095418512008-03-20T08:04:00.000-07:002008-03-20T08:17:53.653-07:00CHOCOLATE!!!<br /><br />So, what's your favourite chocolate?<br /><br />I like flake, galaxy ripple, white chocolate like milky bar buttons, toffee crisp, twirl, fudge chocolate, double <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">decker</span>, boost, fruit and nut, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">maltesers</span>, <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">areo</span>, orange chocolate, milky way, mars bars, and of course Easter eggs :)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7372233876826834351-5804588215509541851?l=reflectionsofarambler.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>RoaRhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16005677333650591583noreply@blogger.com10tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7372233876826834351.post-92191972340563326982008-03-10T12:30:00.000-07:002008-03-15T12:41:12.891-07:00So, last week I completed a weeks worth of good old fashioned work experience at a solicitors' firm.<br /><br />I thought I'd share my experiences on this lovely blog of mine for all you lovely people to read...<br /><br />My first task was to find the place. With the help of Tom, this was pretty easy.<br /><br />Once I got there, I wasn't (just) photocopying and making coffee for the boss. No. I was doing proper work. Like writing letters. I was also allowed to do briefs to counsel (I'm not really sure what this means myself, so don't ask because you will just be ignored). They even let me talk to their clients. I really enjoyed the work.<br /><br />The solicitor I was working with was so nice. I wonder if all solicitors will be as nice as her...<br /><br />Highlights included the fact that I got to be a witness to a will, which was pretty cool. Lunch was always nice, especially with nice cafes only a walk away.<br /><br />Anyway, that's all I have to say. For now. But, I'm going to carry on volunteering there one day a week, so expect to see more posts on here about my experiences.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7372233876826834351-9219197234056332698?l=reflectionsofarambler.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>RoaRhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16005677333650591583noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7372233876826834351.post-83593706178897694952008-02-27T13:04:00.000-08:002008-02-27T13:05:15.529-08:00I slept through the earthquake :)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7372233876826834351-8359370617889769495?l=reflectionsofarambler.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>RoaRhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16005677333650591583noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7372233876826834351.post-14794281377799039112008-02-25T09:05:00.000-08:002008-02-25T12:28:41.254-08:00No cheating via Google or any other way...<br /><br />Back then I had it all now I want it back that's all<br /><br />It's not time to make a change<br /><br />There are many things I would like to say to you but I don't know how<br /><br />But to wait for you is all I can do<br /><br />Two more years and you'll be done with school and I'll be making history like I do<br /><br />You came and you gave without taking<br /><br />Some things you have to believe but others are puzzles puzzling me<br /><br />Look at my hopes look at my dreams I'm building bridges from these scenes<br /><br />But it's just something we have no control over and that's what destiny is<br /><br />When everyone else said I was wrong you gave me a reason to be strong you gave me the will to carry on<br /><br />But I don't care what they say I'm in love with you they try to pull me away but they don't know the truth<br /><br />Don't want to think about it don't want to talk about it can't believe it's ended this way<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7372233876826834351-1479428137779903911?l=reflectionsofarambler.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>RoaRhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16005677333650591583noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7372233876826834351.post-50124718005074406002008-02-03T13:47:00.000-08:002008-02-27T13:07:59.528-08:00I hate Mondays<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7372233876826834351-5012471800507440600?l=reflectionsofarambler.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>RoaRhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16005677333650591583noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7372233876826834351.post-37657627791955879322008-01-01T15:58:00.000-08:002008-02-27T13:07:45.412-08:00The title says it all<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7372233876826834351-3765762779195587932?l=reflectionsofarambler.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>RoaRhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16005677333650591583noreply@blogger.com0
