I'm ill

My friends came back from SEASAC softball and they cam third place and I'm so proud of them :) so if you haven't guessed from the title I'm feeling a bit under the weather I'm not sure but I think there's a bug going around because all of my friends are ill too. I've had this really bad headache but it's taught me something... I love honey lemon tea. I've been so stressed due to the predicted IB grades because my school apparently predict really low due to the students mainly applying to the US and no longer caring about their IB scores. There's even a name for it... senioritis, it sound like a disease! well I'm defintely not going to get it I want to do the best I can, Sorry for the short post but that's all I have I think I need to sleep.

maths IB and pencil cases

So yesterday I went and brought a ton of pens. I'm not sure why but it makes me really happy when I get stationary and I'm organised. I also brought some pencils and I got  my ti-84 from America which is exciting for maths studies ;) I sound like a nerd but yeah. What I get really annoyed about is people considering maths studies stupid... I mean it's still and IB course and you do a lot of what the SL does. Doing HL maths isn't anymore difficult than studies it just depends on the person because it might be the same amount of difficulty for someone to understand than Maths HL is for another. Obviously if you can cope with HL and are doing studies that's another thing but I don't think it's right to make fun of people for doing studies if they're finding it just as difficult then you when you're doing HL. Think of it in terms of singing, if a good singer is trying to sing opera that's like HL maths but if a person who is completely tone deaf and is struggling to sing normally isn't it just as hard? I think we need to be a bit more considerate of people because what may be difficult in other subjects may be really difficult for you and vice versa. These levels they put us in in school is similar because you are only considered 'smart' if you're in set 1 and the people in set 5 are seen as slackers but what if they're trying just as hard as you? these sets also don't show everyone potential, as I said before the material we're doing in studies is the same as SL, in fact I took there quiz and I got higher than a lot of them...even in GCSE's I was predicted C's and came out with A*'s you just need to quit judging from the past and give everyone a chance because they'll most likely surprise you.

Family problems? - my take

I'm writing this in general and won't include people because it's their choice if they want it public or not. I'm not someone who has a dysfunctional family but I think every family has problems and bound to have a fight with at least one member. I'm not going to talk about me personally, I'm just going to talk about the topic and everything. I guess my school friends will say they have problems and then you look at yours and it causes you to analyse it...I guess I've been doing that a lot lately. Instead, I think we should learn to appreciate what we have and if you have decent parents you need to realise this, if you have non-decent parents I can't really say too much. It's quite complicated blogging about personal things, especially family because, at least in my community, it is seen as inappropriate because it's not as though I have bad parents so people just don't really need to know about personal stuff and it's just not done gossip will spread for stupid reasons when nothing that bad happen..bangla problems. However, it can be good to tell your troubles to trusted friends. If you guys don't know I have a twin sister and it can get really difficult sometimes, sometimes I wish she was literally my older sister because I think it would be a lot easier. That way I wouldn't have to be compared to her by friends because she's my twin so we must be the same right? we must be equally smart right? jeez it gets really frustrating sometimes, usually I don't care, but everyone gets tired after a bit, if she was older we could at least have something different.I'll admit we get into disputes but then we also enjoy each others company on other days, it can be bad but it can also be fun. As a whole, these are small problems because we are teenagers and it's really small compared to others and in a few years when were apart we may even miss each other :O I think one of the main reasons for our debacles is that we're so used to being together always, we're kind of scared of going to uni and doing things alone but I think it'll be okay, I just need to face life. I'm getting really excited for university because I can be more my own person and don't have to be compared or judged (even though I don't care but I'm really tired of it) and of course learn something that I'm passionate about rather than mathematics (cringe!)

meeting Ian Wright and approaching people

So I'm not sure if... I take that back most likely none of you know that my mum works in media and today Ian Wright the presenter from Globe trekker was in her office he's shooting something for discovery channel but don't ask me because I have no clue. It was really cool because he's one of the main reasons my mum gets ideas to go on holiday in random (not random but not the typical tourist destinations) countries. The main reason I went there was to introduce myself to the man who is head of the production team and the director because I want to study journalism or english that kind of thing. I'm actually quite interested in a lot of topics my makeup blog is just one interest because I enjoy using it and in this busy IB year I think it's a good way to be productive but have fun. I actually thought of doing a current affairs blog but I may start that in uni and when Im in a different country because Im not sure how it would fair and also Im not a person who has correspondents or anything. Maybe on this blog I might write my opinions on some issues but I think it's good as a diary as well. The main reason why I'm blogging today is because I had to introduce myself to a man who is really good at his career in order to build connections. I WAS TERRIFIED. That and the fact that I didn't want to seem cocky or weird. My top tip would just be as polite as possible and not to expect anything. Ok I have to go eat.

funfair

Hi everyone so yesterday we had a funfaiir and I sang... I was so nervous and it's so odd when you go on stage and then you can't hear yourself and you can't see the audience because of the lights. It was fun there was a Ferris wheel with guys literally climbing to the top and dragging it down. Then my friend stef sang and wow she was amazing! Right now I'm sitting in my room bored to life with these two harry potter obsessed girls... and I thought I was obsessed a few years ago, they take things to a new height.

Random point: I HAVE A CAT!! it's so cute and I want to hug it all the time!
