Haha, my Spanish exam was hilarious.

"What is hola in English"

How insulting

Sorry, missed this. Take it you've passed with flying colours then?

Start them June 9th. Three exams - one resit of for Unit 4 of the Psychology course(not sure why, I got a C, but want something to work for) and then Unit 5 of the Psychology course. Then a week later it's Unit 6 of the Psychology course, and a day afterwards the last ICT exam. And that's my lot. Not too painful :P

Good news Grace!:tup:

How was teetotal Spanish exam Elise?:)

I think I passed, without having to drink any wine!

Hands up who had English literature today? I think I did okay actually. Well on my prose section, not too sure about my poetry!

I did the first half of my media too, I thought I'd have loads of time and be bored, but I ended up taking longer than I expected. I have so far managed to mention Hellogoodbye and Michael Jackson and radio. I also critised Paris Hilton. yay. 2 more tasks to go. Then thursday = the death of my media folder.

RE tomorrow, hah.

Another day passes and no studying :( I wish all my exams were at the beginning of the month, most of my friends have finished and i still have 3 left, so im losing the motivation a bit. I shall go into school tomorrow to do some geography though, see if i can boost myself.

My exam yesterday went alright. 2 days of intensive revision seem to have paid off. I had that great feeling of "oh I know this one! I learned it yesterday" for some of the questions. The essay went ok as well. It was quite late in the day and I wasn't really in an essay-writing mood, but I threw in lots of references to the work of my lecturers, in the hope they'll give me a better mark.

Now it's time to get in some proper revision for the one on Friday morning that I haven't even looked at yet.

Ema, I feel your pain. After writing pages and pages in Literature yesterday and then about 8 in my media one in the afternoon. Also, my RE today, I didn't even count but it was a lot. I feel like my arm is about to fall off. RE wasn't too bad, just too much writing. I got confused with it being from the WJEC board though, I thought the entire paper was going to be in welsh. haha, dim.

I'm so confused. I'm trying to write an essay on why there have been conflicts in the Caucasus region but I can't even write a sentence on it. I keep getting confused between the Caucasus and the Caspian and the Balkans and the Baltic. I'm trying to deconfuse myself with the help of Wikipedia and the BBC News website.

I was in school tonight till 6 oclock, making up for all the lack of studying ive did. It went quite well. Ive nearly revised the whole computing course for monday afternoon. I'll spend tomorrow doing PE with the PE exam on friday afternoon, then have the weekend to study Geography for monday morning and go over some last minute computing.

Excellent. Now im going to chillax... huzzah.

    • They seem to be using James more for cover now makes me think it will be him getting weekends eitjer breakfast or 1 till 4 
    • Yep am very much Capital Breakfast now. Jordan, Chris and Sian are a great trio and it's got that feel of the old shows Jordan and Chris used to do on Radio 1. It doesn't take itself too seriously but is packed full of content and slick. With Greg he's great but 6 years in you've probably heard it all before plus frankly I can sit through the Capital Playlist a lot more easily than the Radio 1 playlist (where some of the inclusions and omissions can be quite baffling at times). Plus after things like the Oscars or Met Gala or if there's a particularly big TV show or film or popstar then Greg won't half wang on about it at times. I guess it's partly to be expected with it being a Breakfast show on a young station but it can feel very London bubble and get tired.
    • Ore Olukoga is in for Arielle on Tuesday 14th May. James Cusack is in for Danny Beard on Saturday 1st June. James Cusack is in for Nat on Sunday 2nd June.
    • I honestly never thought in a million years I’d move from Radio 1 to be a regular Capital breakfast show listener. But it’s got pretty much everything I want - 3 really genuine, entertaining mates having a laugh, playing silly games and it all sounds great. I became a big fan of Chris from his days with Scott, became a Jordan fan on Going Home, and Sian Welby is newer to me but is loads of fun too.  It’s great and I’ve shocked myself by transferring my listening at breakfast. For me Greg’s show now feels very tired and it’s time for something new. But with Jordan gone that’s unlikely to happen anytime soon. Greg’s had a great run and I’m a fan - but there’s no new ideas now. I still listen to Radio 1 at other times - but this show feels like very serious competition for Greg. 
    • They have built four new studios to increase capacity, alongside the existing six.  Bearing in mind that some of the output of R1, 1X, R2 & 6M comes from elsewhere, and Asian Network is gradually moving all output to Birmingham, this should be enough!
    • How do they manage to cater for 6Music and Radio 2 on that floor? Did they adapt it? 
    • I think we've all figured out now how much you like it @AndyK77 😂 Personally while I think it's by far the best show on the Capital schedule and better than its predecessor, it still has the shortened songs and other commercial-radio aspects that remind me why I'm a Radio 1 fan. No matter how well this has worked out for Jordan, and all credit to him for landing the job, I can't help but feel that a Jordan and Katie show on R1 breakfast would have been so much better!
    • A few weeks in and I am actually loving the show and Jordan is a nice mix of his old chaotic self and dare I say it a slick jock.
    • He must be in his element. At Eurovision and a Gold award!
    • I really like Rylan, and as much of a fun idea it would be to have Scott and Rylan together, I think Rylan is too much of a main character.  Scott needs a side-kick rather than a full on co-host I think. That’s why he and Chris worked so well, Scott steered the show, and Chris was the perfect person to have alongside him.    I don’t religiously listen to Rylan’s show, but when I do catch it, it’s perfect weekend energy. He has a very warm presenting style too, but something makes me think he and Scott together every day would be a bit too much.     
    • So pleased for Scott on his best entertainment show win. As much as I miss his R1 style, he clearly puts so much into his shows, well deserved and it’s a big two fingers up to all the abuse he has had since joining R2
    • There are a lot that share your sentiments. People have made comparisons to the different takes to Ukraine. 
    • It's a big 'No' from me (Israel-Palestine). No further comments.
    • A joke about pirates: ‘but we’re not jumping ship, like someone else’
    • I felt it was much better with the staging and everything.  I still cannot warm to his voice but he's a very good performer. Ireland was everything though.
