At last my examinations are over and I can finally relax and get back to normal life. I performed well in most of them however my last further maths examination went terribly; I had such difficulty with it considering the lack of work due to the stress and sadness of the last few months. Luckily the AEA paper in mathematics went better than this and hopefully a merit or even distinction in this (very unlikely however) would outshine mistakes in my other exams. I opened the paper and literally half the questions seemed specifically designed towards my abilities; handling questions such as arccos(x)+arccos(2x)=PI/2 became rather easy to solve after discussing similar ones with my teacher Mrs Penman (instead of working on the FP3 content which had less appeal for me). There were some great questions and I enjoyed the three hours looking back on it; I would recommend the AEA paper for anyone who finds standard A-level mathematics too easy.
At the moment I am working through a two-week placement at Currys in Dorking; this will enable me to afford to take my lovely girlfriend Laura out for dinner when she returns from Life Works. It has been really difficult without her to cuddle and talk to: men might act tough and mean but we are (or at least I am) quite soft on the inside. Jealously creeps inside me when I hear about all the guys she is enjoying talking to but I know there is nothing bad happening; it is just my loneliness taking a hold over me. I can’t wait for her to get better and enjoy the next few months in her company.
Over the next few months I hope to find a higher paid computer-related job which will let me flex my creative skills while earning much higher pay than in a standard student job such as Currys or Waitrose. i need to modify my curriculum vitae to appeal to these medium to large companies and convince them that I have the skills necessary to be a productive team member.
