I've Got 99 Problems and A Levels are 97 of them

I have been on study leave for a week now, and I cannot honestly say that I've used my time to effectively revise. It's not because I haven't tried - trust me I have sat in the dining room for an hour with books, paper and coloured pens surrounding me and I still haven't been able to get anything done.

This is partly because I am bored. Bored of learning about brown earth soils for Geography, reading Othello for English and trying to remember some facts about the Russian economy under Nicholas II. After this month I will never have to study any of these subjects again - something which I am very happy about.

I've just got to stick the pain of constant revision and ridiculous facts until June 7th and then I am free. Free of exams forever (I have no exams at university - my course is entirely coursework based).

I cannot wait to be free of the monotonous school life - I'll have weeks to roam around London and other places, doing what I want and then I have my two goodbye occasions and that's it. I'm done with school forever. No going back.

This is scary, but I guess it has to happen.

This hasn't gone anywhere, but hopefully you get the idea that I'm not happy that I have to sit inside revising stuff I don't really need to know when I could be out in the real world trying to enjoy my life.
