I’m looking forward to harassing the dinner ladies for my coffees three times a day and getting back into my routine.

What about you guys? Are you excited to start UCAS or apprenticeship/job searching? Learning your new content? Never having to do that one subject ever again? Doing absolutely nothing during frees? Going to the shops in your frees and buying things you definitely won’t eat?

I decided to do pass plus because it’s cheap, more experience, a slim chance of ever so slightly lower insurance (I’ll take what I can get atp) so I have my 6 hours coming up in two blocks of 3 hrs across two days. I want to go into the local city to do some city driving and get acquainted with the roads and the main car park but I’m stuck with what else to do. I’m confident on motorways and rural roads but I don’t know what I should use the other hours for. Any ideas?

Hit a squirrel on my way to pick up a friend for the famed “first-friend-in-the-car” drive. He was on the point where one lane splits into two and just as I was moving into the left he tried to make a break for it across the road but I couldn’t swerve in time to miss him😭

I felt so bad I ended up pulling over and ringing my dad because it upset me much more than I thought it would. It didn’t help that my friend was saying “what about his family” on the way back down the same road☹️

I got white pair from a charity shop and I cleaned them up with the usual washing machine and shoe wipes but they’re still white(ish) with patchy yellow which irritates me to no end so any recs for how to clean them? Preferably something I can get in the shops in the UK to make it easier for me

Thx

Oooh guys my test is tomorrowwwwww! I’m so excited and nervous at the same time there’s so many emotions in my brain rn!

I’ve got a plan to make sure my morning goes smoothly:
• Parents are only allowed to say one good luck and one love you and that’s it.
• Quiet morning at school completing some work.
• Shove fish&chips down my throat and off for a hour and a half lesson before my test at 2.42pm (how specific)

And the final part of my plan!

• Leave the test centre without my provisional😼🙌🏻

I don’t like bananas as they make me feel 🤢 so instead I’m eating some vegan Ben and Jerrys (the shop ran out of non-vegan😓)

Any tips tricks advice or a word of encouragement greatly appreciated!

I’m so upset rn and there’s probably even no need but welp!

I just went for a run around a new test route with my dad and it went so horribly wrong that I’m genuinely surprised we made it home it was just so awful. We set off from the test centre fine but as we got about 5 minutes in I get hit with a “road closed, use diversion” sign which is just my luck so we go down there anyways just to see and we find a place to turn around and choose another test route to go on and then all hell breaks loose in my brain. After continuing on this new test route, I stall, which is fine because it’s not a fail unless it’s like super bad, then I take the second exit instead of the first off the roundabout so we have to turn around. I’m hesitating like crazy, like full on sitting there whilst cars just breeze into the exit I’m coming out of and I’m thinking “what if they decide to change directions at the last minute and hit me?” Makes sense I know🙄 and all the while my dad is saying “you’re hesitating, just go. Go, otherwise you will fail. He will fail you for this and then you’ll have to pay more money and your friends will laugh at you for failing for hesitation.” ⁉️ So we continue on and we get to the busier part and suddenly my dad takes all leave of his senses and starts berating me for forgetting to signal left on a roundabout and we’re coming up to this junction and I’m asking “where do I need to go? Left, straight, right?” but he just tuts and carries on, so I choose the straight on lane and once I’m stopped at the lights he says: “why are you in the straight on lane? You should be in the turn right lane.” I tell him that he didn’t tell me and he starts going off on one saying “I should have known” (first time doing this route btw) and he just says to go home and we do. At this point I’m on the verge of tears and forgetting indicators and changing lanes on roundabouts like I’m in Mario kart and I tell him he needs to drive because at this point I’m practically dangerous and he just shouts at me saying it’s all my fault when I fail and that he’s going to take my keys because I don’t deserve them anymore and all these horrible things.

Its left me feeling like absolute shit and all I want to do is cry and cancel my test because I just don’t think I can do it and neither do I deserve the little car my parents got me for my birthday. I also haven’t been feeling the best mentally in terms of how I see myself and it’s just not helping. I just feel like giving up and just never driving because my life is so out of whack what’s one more right?

Got me doing Pilates and eating healthy(er) and not eating school brownies and volunteering to do PE with the year 6 transition kids😭

I feel left behind, all my friends and peers are planning for their futures and applying for universities and doing fun things and I just feel stuck. Someone else I know is planning Camp America right now and I barely feel confident enough in myself to go to the shops.
It’s really starting to affect my mental health and I just feel like I have no prospects after school. I have no desire to attend university or higher education. I don’t know what career I want to do. I feel like I will never be able to leave the one constant in my life, even though everyone else is.

So yeah my skl starting PS’s after the summer and we were told to start thinking now so what are some really generic things I can write about so it can be as easy as poss. I have like no future job plans and no hobbies that would get me a job as such. I dance but I don’t dance good enough to get a job in any sort of dancing role so that’s off the cards really

I finished all my exams last week and I’ve deleted all my Gizmo and Quizlet sets for my subjects ready for the new topics and I’m on holiday near the beach and my mind is just “REVISION REVISION REVISE REVISE” 😭😭

Ts supposed to be relaxing but it’s got me more stressed because that one academic weapon has probably already finished the course before we’ve even started it😭

So basically guys, along the section of dual carriageway I travel on to get to the test routes/centre for my upcoming test, there is a temporary sign (50mph) coming off the roundabout to get onto it. These signs were placed there well before I started learning for roadworks on the road which have now been long completed but they haven’t taken the signs away. There is a temporary sign showing national speed a couple miles up but everyone seems to pass me doing 70mph whilst I’m only doing 50mph.

So, to 50mph or not to 50mph?

I FINALLY finished my last exam today and it was the worst subject (poetry) AND I NEVER HAVE TO DO THAT HORRIBLE HORRIBLE SUBJECT EVER AGAIN OR GO BSCK TO THAT HORRIBLE TERRIBLE SHITTY SCHOOL

ROLL ON ONE WEEKS HOLIDAY FULL OF DRINKING AND DOING FCK ALL AND THEN ROLL ON YEAR 13🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

For everyone still doing exams: YOU GOT THIS, YOU CAN DO IT, THE END IS NEAR AND THEN YOUVE GOT THE SUMMER HOLS!!🌞
