Long time no see,
so nearing the end of term 2 for year 11. In 52 weeks school will basically be over and it will be HSC time.
scary stuff
Finally assessments are over - well not all - and I can at least semi relax. One of the major things that my teachers tell me is that I set expectations that are too high of myself. This means that I am constantly disappointed with the results I get, even if they are actually amazing.
SAC - got 26/30 for my socialisation presentation, so I am pretty happy with that.
Maths - 96% for trigonometry assignment. I am happy with this, but everyone else got pretty high marks as it was a take home assignment - the teachers weren't happy about this hahah.
Biology - we are doing a depth study that is due next term, hence why I said I cannot fully relax yet.
Drama - Have not gotten my results for my set design yet, I am hoping it is high as I put way too much effort into this.
English - I did a Pecha Kucha presentation which I have not go my results for yet, I think I did fairly okay.
SOR - have not gotten my results back yet!! I am dreading this one!!
I also got my semester 1 report which I was pretty happy with. I always feel like I should be happy about my resuls, but for some reason I never really feel satisfied, and I always feel like I could've done more.
Today I got my
legal results - 71%. I was really upset about this
, I topped the year in the assessment last term so this was a shock. Even though I despise my teacher, I have always been good at legal, and it has come naturally, so this was really upsetting for me. The other class's teacher marked it and he really tore us to shreds and did not make me feel any better. It is just a mark at the end of the day, but I have really been feeling down about it. I know I am going to drop legal, because if I do not like my teacher, the dates/leg. we have to remember, I cannot imagine how I will feel in Year 12. It is the only subject I dread, even though, or I hope to think that I excel at it.
I have work experience as well coming up, that the whole year does, and you have to sort it out yourself. Even though I have a part-time job, I have found it very overwhelming trying to approach employers and businesses about this. I do get anxiety about that type of thing. And our careers advisor is not very helpful or approachable, so I am talking to another teacher who genuinely cares and is assisting me in sorting it out. I approached a theatre, and the placements are exhausted but they really want me so they are trying to find a place for me. I really hope there is because I do not really have a plan B!!
Anyways, just gonna get through the rest of this week and get to the holidays.
