Status: Drinking Earl Grey Tea Because I Feel 'Posh'

Hey!

I'm here to grace your life for a few minutes as you read this (totally interesting) post about whatever comes into my head.

So exams are soon (yay) and I'm spending my Easter holidays doing revision- although I did go outside today (are you proud?) because we went out for my sister's birthday. And I also went out yesterday, to have lunch with my friends and my "Nana" (who has basically adopted me 😊).

Yesterday, I also went to a Maths revision session for three hours and I thought that I'd share this wonderful website that we were told about, where you can do practice papers- online! You're welcome. *bows*

And isn't it interesting: doing an English Language paper is the thing that makes me want to write something again. So after revision, I'm actually going to do some creative writing (update: if you're interested, the piece that I just wrote can be found here)!

I don't think that the weather knows what it's doing at the moment. Yesterday, for example, it was really foggy in the morning, then it got pretty warm (for April) in the afternoon, and then today it was lovely and grey this morning before the sun broke out from behind the clouds and it feels like Spring again.

Weird English weather.

I've nearly reached 100 posts- can you believe it? I started this blog not even a year ago, and look how it's gone (218 views in the past month alone!).

By the way, in reference to the title, I am currently drinking a mug of earl grey tea, and loving it. I'm not sure why it's associated with being rather posh- perhaps a blog post idea?

Don't forget to subscribe, please, and have a great day- especially my sister (happy birthday!) and anyone else who has a birthday today!

Carers Week

Hi everyone! It feels like it's been ages since I last posted anything (or really wrote anything for that matter) but hey, exams! Anyway, this week (11th-17th June) is Carers Week, so I thought that I'd do some raising of awareness for Young Carers. First of all, shout out to my friend for standing up in assembly to talk about this, and for all those who ran the cake stall at school (they raised £69!). She's so amazing, and most of the following information comes from her. There are three main types of care that someone can provide-  physical (e.g helping to get dressed), practical (e.g shopping) and emotional (e.g comforting them if they’re upset or anxious etc). My friend thinks that emotional is probably the hardest to deal with, and it can worry carers a lot, especially when they’re at work or school (is that person ok, has anything happened to them etc), and I have to say that I agree. For young carers, the most common situations are looking after a paren

Steam trains move slowly but surely

Hello :) Those of you who know me well will probably have listened to at least one rant about feminism, especially after having studied Invisible Women by Caroline Criado-Perez in English. And those of you who have also read this wonderful book will (hopefully) be joining me in ranting. One of the parts of this book discusses women's health and medicine, and how the concept of the default male (a major concept throughout the entire book) prevents women's health issues from being properly understood and treated. There were many parts of the book that made me so angry that I had to put it down and just stare into the distance. It was probably quite a good thing that we were studying it, because it meant that I only had to read a few chapters at a time and so the anger wasn't building up BUT, the revolution is here! Slowly, it comes, like a steam train. One of the parts of the revolution concerns actually listening to and collecting data on women's health so...  Please fil

Do You Think That Dragons Would Like Campervans?

Because I haven't actually written anything on my blog for a bit, the modern look threw me once again. Oops? But hello! I hope that everyone is doing okay with everything that's going on at the moment. Our history teacher said that we're living through history at the moment and that it is exciting (especially as a historian) but also terrifying. This came about because we were talking about primary sources and secondary sources and which is more reliable/accurate (because it's history, the answer is neither). If you wrote a diary about the events happening at the moment, is it more or less accurate/reliable than someone thirty years in the future writing about the events drawing from multiple sources? Haha isn't history great. It's fascinating and there are so many different interpretations that can come out of sources, much like English (we're studying Othello at the moment and I did go off on a mini-rant about how I don't like Cassio). Oh, and also I j
