Back... For Good?

Back in the good ol' days, when life was about as interesting as AS physics, I used to blog all the time about how mind-numbingly boring life was, how difficult my exams were, what I had for breakfast etc. Tedious twaddle like that. Now life is fast-paced and crazy - filled with girls, raves and new experiences. Fascinating stuff that would have had literally tens of people tuning into my blog.

Alas, the very topics that would have increased my readership were also the reasons I have not updated, because I was too busy dealing with them rather than writing about them. And you what? That just isn't fair on you, my dear loyal fans. I knew you would be distraught at my disappearance, and that's what made me return. It was you that brought me back from the abyss.

So what exactly happened in the time I was gone? Writing in detail about it all would take years, so I'll summarise:

I got a Muslim girlfriend. I know, you're probably asking yourself, surely that's an oxymoron? Muslims and dating don't mix! I had to learn that the hard way... When three months into our tomfoolery her parents found out and she was nearly pulled out of school (but that thankfully resolved itself. However, we are no longer going out). All I wanted was a shallow popcorn-movies-gossip sorta relationship, but it turned into something so much more and she only had to go and fall in love with me (she's only human...). So dealing with this complicated mess has been quite time consuming.

The whole academic side has intensified, with only one month to go before the critically important A-level exams, which will have a massive impact on what university I want to go to. Since I'm still holding onto the dream of Oxbridge, I've been working harder, doing more medical work experience, and generally pushing myself so that my chances are optimised. I'm just hoping I won't burn out before exams...

All my friends have turned into whiny neurotic girl-chasing emos like myself. Dealing with the bitchery and social politics is a pain. How I long to be sixteen again...

Oh, and I'm seventeen now. Actually closer to eighteen. The gimmick of being a young blogger is fading...

Anyway, hopefully this is a return-to-form post. I'll try and write regularly in the run-up to University, but there's no guarantees.

All the best for your A Level exams! Given your intelligence I doubt you will have any problem getting accepted into Oxford/Cambridge.

Focus on your exams for now - you can tell us all about them when they are finally over. :)

Pah! Don't go wishing to be 16 again, it's the worst time of your life.

Things get so much better, and so much more complicated, once you get out of school.

"whiny neurotic girl-chasing emos"

I do not whine, I no longer chase girls, I am certainly not an emo, although I might be a bit neurotic.

Sorry to disappoint you and other 'readers', but no I don't think you'll ever be back for good - certainly not over the next couple of months when A-level crisis-cramming is in full swing...

All the best Jingo.

You'll always wish to be 16 again- that's life... :-)

All I can say is that the best is yet to come in your life.

Good luck with everything ;-)

Well I haven't blogged for months and months because I've been doing GCSE's, which I'm sure aren't as stressful as what you're going through, but there just wasn't any time for blogging. So I understand!
