My subjects....
If only that quote was true! The reason I'm writing a blog about subjects is because I do not want to do my French homework. True story...
The subjects I do at school are fun and relaxed, most of the time. To be honest I have no idea why I'm doing these subjects when I'm not exactly that interested. The subjects I'm doing are:
Further Maths: which in normal english means easy maths, no parabolas, or quadric equations, and all those other hard things with the axis. Maths isn't my best subject, I hate maths with deep fiery passion, but further maths made it bare-able for me to handle. It's not only the topics we learn in the subject itself , but my maths teacher, she's the best! She tells the most hilarious stories about her children and often ask us advice before she starts teaching.
Theatre Studies (drama): To be honest I didn't want this subject in the first place but the previous subject I chose (studio art) didn't fit in my class schedule, so I had to pick between business management, law and finance, theatre studies or literature. Since most of them involved a lot of thinking, theatre studies it is! I am glad I pick it though, because I actually enjoy it. In a few weeks time we will be putting on a play, which is open to the public at my school, I will blog about how that went!
French: I don't mind french, it makes me feel special because I can speak a language no one in my family can understand, except my aunt who lives in France. French is really hard, and I'm falling behind at the moment. I guess its a bad time to be procrastinating right now... Oh well!
Hospitality: It's a good subject, only because I get a lot of spare because that subject! In my school , hospitality is a VET subject which means that we are getting actual qualification certificates as well going to TAFE (a school for careers that are more hands on jobs, like hospitality and trade work). Unfortunately for me, they give quite a fair amount of homework.
History: I could just hear you all groaning through the screen! But really, I love history, learning about the past and what went wrong. There is also a historical TV show i love to watch, its called Horrible History in BBC, yes in Australia we have some BBC shows. Actually, i'll tell you all a funny historical fact during the World War II. Germany built a silent killer submarine, It had the latest technology and able to sneak up on ships and other submarine and release a bomb so quite that you wouldn't know there was a bomb coming until it explodes. The only problem with this submarine was that it was too advance, as they were sneaking up the coast of Scotland, a German soldier went to toilet and when he flushed the toilet, he pressed the wrong button and caused the toilet to regurgitate it's storage. The German submarine had no choice but to resurface at the coast of Scotland and get captured. See, not all history is boring!
The only subject missing is English, but English is a subject I must do, it is a requirement for everyone to do English. As you can see, I don't do any sciences, but I will be doing Psychology next year. All my subjects are pretty chilled, but exams are coming and I must prepare for battle!

My stress levels
"The time to relax is when you don't have time for you it at all" - Jim Goodwin
I'm sorry, I'm sorry if you think I have abandoned this blog, it just that I have been super busy.
So far my stress levels are above the roof, I have all this assignment due one after the other that I don't even have time to relax let alone blog about my recent life adventures, but then again this is another challenge before reaching for my dreams. What am I doing now? I'm at work on my break which I only have about 5 minutes left so I might have to edit this before bed. I work at a casual restaurant near my house, so u could imagine the amount of things I have to do on the plus side I get paid quite a bit!
So far I have little time, little sleep and a lot of things to do, my weekends..... hold on what weekends? I'm working all Saturday and Sunday. Oh don't even start with my social life! That is strictly Facebook and school only.
So this weeks goal is to calm down and stop stressing so much, which is hard, but how to stop stressing?
1. Take deep breaths
2. Do some exercises! (For you yes...but me not a chance)
3. Take naps (I like naps, don't you? I feel like high school should have nap time instead of prep kids)
4. Take it slow and focus.
5. Always have fun!
You see I can't learn when I'm having fun, if your a teacher reading this, take my advice: make your class fun and kids will love it more!
Until next blog when my time eases up a bit!
