Fuck yes mush And I’ve only revised 6 poems and I can’t be arsed to revise anymore, going to watch like 3 videos of AIC and no notes because I cannot be arsed for that also. Not too stressed though because all 3 of the courses I want to get into does not require English Lit but I’m still putting an effort into it drives by the fact that after tomorrow, I will never have to learn about fuckass poems or Inspector calls, already got Macbeth and ACC out the way too that was a whiff a fresh air.

English lang on Thursday I will be locked in, although it is much more easier for me than English lit as it is just learning about language techniques and devices to pass.

I went to college for 2 years afterwards felt like a week and so forgettable.

After that I still talk to basically everyone and I notice people have also stuck in the same friend groups on socials aswell. Since who else are you gonna really meet? Maybe people from work but usually you stay as work mates.

Life gets way better in my opinion after secondary but there are some times which I do miss sitting in the back of science fucking about.

People overexaggerate GCSE's a lot. As long as your grades are high enough for the college/sixth form you want to get in to then it's fine. After that for Uni etc, it doesn't matter. (I didn't go uni because of the debt, but would definitely go for the uni dorm life.)

Yeah, don’t need English lit either. I’ve revised half a poem so far, and that’s probably all im gonna do. I don’t have the drive to make myself revise idk why. I also kinda know a few quotes from the novel im doing. Long story short im finished

 

[mcmentalonthemic]

secondary school is just a preliminary exam, essentially a view of what is to come in the future
the rest of your life is the final exam

Teck, I’ve still got War Photographer to do which should take about 10 minutes at most and then I’m sorted for tomorrow.

 

[Final Fantasy]

What are you doing right now mate? What’s your job?

I'm planning to become a private tattoo artist because I think tattoos are beautiful and it makes a shit ton of money.

If you do plan on going college, after that you'll have 1-2 years where your friends are just working the normal jobs to make money. I'm in that transition in life afterwards where your friends start getting in to serious jobs and we went from going out to the pub every weekend to maybe once a month, talking less, people actually start getting into relationships which last and are serious.

Summers coming up though and we got a lads holiday to italy. So pints and packet is getting in mush.

Im just doing kamikaze, I don’t have time for any others. What novel are you doing?

 

[Joeseminate]

yr 8-10 was the best for me but sixth form was like a 4 hour commute each day as I live in a rural area and I want to go to a place which did A-levels instead of Btecs/T levels, but uni mogs both. The sixth form I went to was a very competitive and upper class state school was better than private schools in the area and always felt very different compared to my peers who were from the city still kind of feel it in uni but Im seen as exotic as Im not from london or any cities

 

[avenox]

I have done as of right now…

Ozymandias, London, Extract from the Prelude, Charge of the Light Brigade, Remains and my last one obviously War photographer.

By normal jobs, do you mean just part time jobs while they’re at Uni or what exactly?

 

[avenox]

Whichever the one your school teaches you

 

[SoundnVision]

A life of hypergamous British women awaits and living off a shit wage relative to the cost of living

 

[Final Fantasy]

Peak!

Teck, hope you enjoy your Italy trip with your mates man, make sure to get drunk and high every night and consume bare nicotine and/or tobbaco. The beaches in Italy I heard are very nice too, so if you going there then it’s just going to be extra low cortisol.

 

[avenox]

What are,you doing in college ? Im doing plumbing it’s the best I can get with the grades im getting

Electrician, even with high grades I would still be doing a trade job, always preferred trade/blue collar

I’m in year 11 with 16 school days left of school, i’m in the midst of GCSE’s, how is life agter you graduate? Is college/6th Form/Apprenticeship’s any better? Do you still speak to your friends from back then?

I would never go back to my secondary school for another 2 whole years

 

[KronionTheGreat]

You too man, what will you be doing now though if it’s too late to apply?

Plumbing course for a year then hopefully get an apprenticeship for the next year. I’d want one in carpentry or electrician, but if I’m doing a plumbing course for a year I may aswell get one in that

 

[81xa]

Nigga is 11

 

[leckerman]

I’m in my last year of uni, I’ll graduate soon but life during secondary was fucking hell. I hated it so much not because I was bullied but because everyone had the same faggotity roadman personality between 2016-2019.

I was quite a passive kid and minded my own business so not much excitement. Boring & Remedial.

But life kind of improved after my horror years during lockdown.

im about to start uni in september, is there anything u wish u knew when u started?
to my understanding the main thing is get involved with all the societies and make as many friends as possible

 

[Former Shortcel]

Sixth form / college was peak. Uni experiences are great too but id do anything to relive sixth form

Basically, regardless of russel group or non russel group a lot of fuckery goes on in uni.

This is common knowledge I’m sure you know this but DONT get accommodation if you live close and also rinse out your SFE as much as you can for laptop, supplies etc. you’ll prolly get 3-7k range if your lucky.

Dating in uni is a horrible idea don’t bother, just lock in and fuck random girls.
Also don’t drive to uni if your in london.

Avoid societies with blacks and browns but yeahh.

the quality of life is dogshit here, theres a reason every normie i met acts like a grandpa at early 20s unlike people in the rest of europe who dont settle down until much later

 

[Former Shortcel]

How was Secondary for you?

Secondary was ok, whilst I had some good times during the end of y11 + the summer, i used to be giga short back then and got little respect from people

Believe it or not it’s still like that, the numbers have chopped in half thankfully but in my year, there is still a fat fuck of “hardmans” Although some are genuinely nice to speak to if they’re alone, I’ve spoken to 4 who are quite chill without their friends, mostly about life and TV shows, mind you were opposite ends on the school caste system. I do see good in 90% of people.

I think I am you from the past then, 5’3 as of right now, gonna get a job immediately after graduation and work my ass off in the summer holidays, gonna start roids peptides and other drugs to maximize my development and finally start gymcelling.

Yeah I used to be 5’3 back then too, I had constitutional delay and growth of puberty and got put on testosterone injections by my endocrinologist for 6 months (august - february iirc). I wasnt on any HGH but I had a large growth spurt during this time period and I got more respect from others since I actually looked developed

Getting a job during the summer will be good, I regret not getting one then because it was hard as fuck trying to find one in y12 since i had little experience

Holy shit that might be the same for me too, I need to give my paedatricians a ring tomorrow.

How tall are you now?

 

[Former Shortcel]

Holy shit that might be the same for me too, I need to give my paedatricians a ring tomorrow.

How tall are you now?

I just about reached 6ft during the winter, honestly insane how huge the growth spurt was considering i used to be a manlet for most of my life

I met up with my friends from college during the easter break and they mentioned how much taller i got which was lifefuel

Also yeah id recommend getting into contact with an endocrinologist shit could honestly save you
