11 exams down, 12 to go!!!
I just finished my English Lit exam, meaning that I’M DONE WITH EXAMS FOR A WEEK. All I have to do is do a revision session for history, and then I can go home and half-celebrate.
I’m probably going to do an exam breakdown tomorrow (why the hell am I scheduling stuff AHHH!) and I’ll relax. If you guys want, I can make another voice recording, just chatting? I’ll mke myself feel better a little.
As I promised myself a week ago, I need to let my emotions out. I need to be able to feel really sad about the breakup, and that’s okay, but not right now. I need to numb it until the revision session is done, because if I break now I won’t be able to pick myself up, and I’ll have to hide that I’m not okay. At home, my dad understands, so I don’t have to pretend that everything’s great.
Over the half term, I’m actually going to give myself time to breathe. That’s important. I’ll meet up with friends and blog and revise and it’ll be okay. All I need to do is get through today.
Later, I’m going to post. It’ll be my thoughts, totally unfiltered, because I need to do it. Remember – if you feel like that, make sure you talk about it. Make sure you let yourself WRITE IT OUT, because no one’s judging you. We all need to scream once in a while.
So yeah, this is a warning. I’m gonna let out about a week of pain on here, because I want to, because I can. God knows how it’ll turn out, but I have to remind myself that I CAN help people, I love helping people, but I do need to help myself.

Aay congrats on finishing english lit! I’ve just finished that exact exam π x
How’d it go? The unseen poem was LOVELYYYY! π
It was a relief following the first lit exam (I made a mess of that!), and likewise, I loved the unseen – I drew hearts round Wilfred Owen’s name because I was so happy! How was it for you?
BEAUTIFUL π Good old Wilfred. And I doubt you messed up the first exam!
Let your feelings out-it’s better out than in. And you already know very well that we would NEVER judge you on anything you say here.
You can make a voice recording, or write a post whatever you want-just talk it all out π
I’ll do my best π You truly know how to make me feel better about this.
Ahh..thanks π
Elm, best of luck in your exams! I agree with @selfie..yes, let out your feelings don’t bottle them up or else they turn sour then staining your life with sourness/bitterness…..be free as a bird dear.. No one will judge. But if anyone decides to, imma deal with them for you..remember I got you elm…so let loose with words and I will be here to read it.
You are about my favourite person right now. Thank you!!! π It means so much that you’re supporting me.
You are welcome hun.
Me too! Well, I have more exams left but I guess that’s my fault for doing further maths. I need to catch up on history revision over half term because I haven’t done much so far (a friend got me into Dan & Phil and I may have been watching more videos than I have time for…)
It’s a GOOD thing! π Dan and Phil are my life I swear. And you’re INSANE for doing further maths haha! Good luck with the history – is your exam on the 6th?
Unit 1 on the 6th & Unit 2 on the 14th. I don’t mind further maths really but it’s a little annoying that the exams for it are the week after everyone else has finished. Good luck with all of your exams too π
Thanks so much! π And ahh same with the history. WOOHOO!
I’ve finished my English Lit too!! best feeling ever. I have 14 more exams to go (sucks to do further maths!). Hope you have a great half term but if you’re like me then i will just be trying to revise all week long. xx
Eeek good luck – I’ll probably TRY and do that, and then fail. Good luck with the further maths!
All the best for the rest of your exams, Elm! Can’t wait for the blogpost. β€οΈ
Thank you so much π I’ll post it later tonight, probably
Good luck with the rest of your exams! Cant believe you’re doing so many, in Scotland we only sit 6-8 exams!
WHATT!!!!! SERIOUSLY? You’re so so lucky. I actually want to live in Scotland it seems so much better
Trust me it’s not! The teachers have no clue how to teach the courses, and the people who are creating the exams have no clue what level to set the questions at π¦
Seriously? π¦ Least you don’t have to study 10-12 subjects. But still – I guess there’s flaws in every system.
that’s trueπ
Good luck with your exams! You’ll do great π
I hope so! Thank you so much π
Your welcome π
Good luck with the rest of your exams! I can’t believe you’re doing 23!!!
It’s insane!!!! π¦ Thank you so much!
Keep going girllll!!!! And keep letting it out π Good Luck on those 23 examss.. Madness but you’ll be fine ;))) x
I really hope so! π Ahh, I’ll manage xx
YAAY ELM YOU DID IT
YAAASS!!!
