Demonic Possession Isn't Very Useful (as I have discovered)

Morning! It's fairly sunny at the moment (which is why I went for a run this morning) but I'm waiting for the grey clouds to pass overhead and drop their precious cargo. Like they did yesterday as we were leaving school. I hope that my bag is dry now.

So, to the title: nosebleeds can be a sign of demonic possession (depending what kind of myths and stuff you're looking at) and as I have a lot of nosebleeds: hey demon in my head, please help me do well in my exams. And also please stop making me bleed everywhere (although I'm on a 3-week streak of no bleeding- yay!!)

I'm kidding (at least, I hope I'm kidding...) of course- as if I need help to pass my exams! 

But they're approaching fast (5 more school days left) and I'm actually quite glad about this. I just want them to start, because once they have, I can start crossing off subjects/topics and I know that it'll all go very quickly.

And I don't think I'm stressed (surely I should know?) which is good. No matter what some people think about my long hours of revision, I do make time for myself- I read, I watch TV, and I have managed to write stuff recently.

If you are stressed/overwhelmed, I'd suggest doing some exercise, please, because nature is really very beautiful and peaceful. :)

My last report of Year 11 came out on Friday- all good things, of course- but let's be honest here, it doesn't really mean anything anymore. I already know that I need to work harder in Maths, for example, and a piece of paper isn't going to tell me anything that I don't already know.

But nothing really exciting has happened recently, apart from that I got Snapchat (for some insane reason). I mean, I actually got it so that I could be added to our English class group chat, but I honestly don't understand. My friend was no help- she just laughed at me then made a group chat for me, another friend who recently got Snapchat and her, called 'Old people'.

How helpful.

And now I'd better get back to Chemistry. Have a good weekend- if you're revising, remember to have some sort of rest and relaxation, and remind yourself that you can do this. 😊

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...

I Find Out A Load About The Railway Industry

Image
Heya friends! I've been up to quite a lot recently (including finishing Draft One of my Maths coursework yesssss) and today, I decided to do some researching about women in the railway industry (to be fair, this is for a challenge badge but also I am interested in female empowerment and the state of equality/lack of in the railway industry is an excellent indication of general equality in Britain). So yeah. I found out a load about the railway industry and now you can too! At the birth of the railway near the beginning of the 19th Century (around the 1830s), the industry was structured in such a way to mirror how society worked. This meant that fathers and sons would follow each other into the industry while the women would become wives and mothers. They were, however, hired by rail companies to work although this work was prohibited to ‘women’s work’ such as cleaning and sewing. They were also able to be level crossing gatekeepers as it could be fitted in with family life - this p...
