Surprised no one's blogged about this yet.....but I supposed many people are still unconcious from Tim's awesomely awesome party XD

Well, I was dissapointed to be honest, everyone said I shouldn't have been, and I can see their point, BBCC isn't a bad set of grades to get in Biol, chem, phys and Welsh, but in my mind I just know I'm capable of better so I was upset with them. I did do a good job of hiding this at results lol but my mum will tell you I was one hell of a state when I got home.

My main issue is, I can't really go through the rest of my life saying, 'oh I got this this and this, but it was BECAUSE I was really ill/grandma died/sister was in hospital/broke up with alan/was scared to go to school/had bronchitis/glandular fever' for the rest of my life, the list of reasons is extensive, and I suppose they're justified, but I'm not gonna list them every time someone asks me what I got, it just feel like I'm trying to excuse what I see as my own personal failure :( So yeah, it sucks

On the brighter side, I worked it all out and I am only 1 point from an A in biology, so maybe I'll just re-sit a module, then I'll be thrilled with my results :) I was chuffed to bits with my C in physics, although I think maybe the examiner was drunk when they marked it.....

So now I guess I have a million choices to make, I've spent a lot of the time I've been concious today researching things. If I'm honest, I'm not really sure I want to go straight into medicine anymore, because although medicine is where I'd like to end up, I'm not sure what field of medicine I want to go into, plus my real passion at the moment is Biology and I'd quite like to do a degree in that and do some research papers before I go into specialisng, I want to work on cancer research and cures for AIDs, something worthwhile, not just being stuck in a local hospital doing dreary day to day tasks, from what I experienced of it, only surgeons have any real fun, and I'm just not brave enough or clever enough to be one haha

The basic sort of plan I've worked out in my head so far is I want to go to canada/america to study, I found a lovely uni in Hawaii that looks quite good :) and I want to study Biology, preferably Human. From there, I'm not really positive, I want to go into nursing, and sepcialise in paedeatrics, then perhaps go on to do a nurse practitioner's course so I can end up a doctor like originally planned, sure it's the long way round, but being in medicine for me has always been about the people I help rather than the job itself and the prestige surrounding it.

Another thing I revisited today, which I haven't thought about in aaaaages, is how much I'd still quite like to be a vet, the zoology courses in American Universities are really interesting....and if I'm honest, I quite fancy going to Australia and doing zoology there and then working in a big zoo with loads of awesome animals :)

All in all, I know I don't have a plan right now, but thats fine, because I like the way things are going, I'm having loads of fun, I am so immensely proud of all my friends who've gotten into university, you all deserve it, I'm bloody terrified of you all leaving and I'm gonna miss you like crazy, but visiting you all will give me something to do :) I start work on monday, start earning money XD can't wait, hopefully I'll meet some lovely new people :)

So good luck to everyone with whatever it is you're doing, I'll be sorry to see you go, but happy for you :)

Oh, and Tim's party.......FRIGGING EPIC NIGHT :) made all the better by the complete lack of drama. The hangover however was definitely not as fun haha I'm off to post the photos on facebook now haha

Ciao! xx
