Finally finished my english coursework! Not quite 1000 words but I managed to come out with 921 (Y) Not bad I must say :D That's a big weight off my shoulders! Now I just need to complete a deconstruction of two radios, and complete an article for the college magazine that was supposed to be in today! Luckily I didn't see him! I will do it tomorrow after college, I've just been so busy this half term with the Daily Echo.
Had a really amazing time :D Got given loads of press releases from an entertainment writer (which I found really interesting, even though they were only 200 words each). I've had 5 things printed in the paper, and read headlines on the Echo website three times out of five. Was really interesting to see what a professional enviroment is like. I think that I would fit in quite well, and can't wait to go to London next week to work at Sugar! Bring on more work experience :D
Also had my UCAs sent off back to my tutor today. So hopefully tomorrow he can put in my reference he's written and it can get sent off to the principal .. then off to the uni's after that! Funtimes :D
I started my first ICT Structured Task today in my ICT lesson, its only worth 10% of the coursework grade, but I don't want to throw away any possible marks (which I did in the mock, by not adding in page numbers in the footer! Otherwise I would have had a perfect score!) so I was asking loads of specific questions and the teacher was like "I think you're dwelling on something that is only worth 7 marks Sophie .." But if it's only worth 7 marks, surely I should be able to get a secure maximum score? It's not that difficult! They even said themselves that you have to be so blatant with everything you do and all of your annotations, and you HAVE to make sure you stick to the criteria given or you get no marks at all?! I'm definately not dwelling on nothing! It's important to meee. I suppose i'm just a perfectionist and it would really annoy me if I slipped up on something stupid like writing (a) instead of Task 2 (a). It's completely stupid but i'm going to make sure I don't make any mistakes! I need a good grade in this course to cancel out the fact that I got an E in History last year! I need to get as many UCAs points as possible. Stupid teachers! Mehhh.
My sisters just told me that she's got an audition for Britains Got Talent with her friend. They're really talented, I hope they go through! It's on a sunday so hopefully i'll be able to go for support :D If not, I'll just pay Adam to take me up there and surprise them on the day :P When I had my audition two years ago my entire family came, so I better be able to go!!
I'm off to Asda for a massive shop when my mum get's back to work, so at the moment i'm catching up on vital computer time, seeing as I always got home from the Echo late and couldn't get on the computer to add a new entry. Going to have 5 days without a computer at all next week .. NOT looking forward to that :(
