Ok guys,
So some of you may or may not know that I am in Year 11.
I have my mocks starting tomorrow and to say the least I'm a little nervous, although I have done GCSE's before these mocks feel like the start of the examination journey which my teachers like to remind me is 'very important and will affect the rest of your life'. They sure do know how to put the pressure on don't they!
I've got biology, chemistry and English Lit tomorrow and I should probably be revising now because I'm not prepared in the slightest!
However if you are going through the same thing as me then you need to remember that at the end of the day MOCKS AREN'T REAL! You should just treat them as a practice run and learn from your mistakes ready for the ones at the end of the year because they are the only ones that matter at the end of the day and employees aren't going to look at your mock scores, maybe not even your real GCSE's in great detail.
As I said earlier I have already done my core science GCSE and got a B which I am very happy with!
With this experience I would like to give you a few, small but valuable tips (for me anyway!)
1. Get there with time to spare so you can calm yourself and be in the 'zone' for when the exam starts
2. Don't over revise- if you feel like you just can't take anymore revision for that night STOP because it just won't go in.
3, Stay calm- at the end of the day it isn't the end of the world if you fail, there is always a chance to have another go even in the real GCSE's and 10 years down the line your exam results wont be important anymore!
SO....
Just remember to stay calm and trust in what you know because all you can do is try your personal best and no one can ask anymore from you!

IM SO SORRY- Winter time tips
Hi guys,
You may or may not of notifced that ive been away from this blog for about a month now and honestly there is no excuse! (slaps back of hand)
It seems that since the last time I posted the weather has changed from the end of summer to freezing winter! So today I thought I would bring you my top tips for staying toasty and warm outside this winter.
1. Take away hot drinks
Now I don't know about you but the majority of my money goes on food and drink because I just love it so much! Hot drinks are perfect for in the winter and one of my favourite things is walking out and about with a coffee in my hand I just love it! Also the main coffee places (starbucks, Costa etc) all bring out seasonal specials including my favourite the chocolate and orange mocha latte (mouthful I know) Its like a sophisticated hot chocolate yum!
2. Layers
Layers are a fabulous way to keep warm and cosy during the winter months and still look slightly stylish! One of my top tips is tights and then jeans on top because it just simply acts as an extra layer keeping you that little bit warmer. I also love scarves for the winter months because not only do they keep you warm they add a stylish accessory that people envy at!
3. Invest in a winter coat
With winter coats I believe the majority of the time with winter coats you get what you pay for and it is well worth splashing the cash a little bit when it comes to buying one. My winter coat this year is from zara, they have a lovely range of warming coats this season and after watching fleur de forces video that mentioned this coat I had to get one for myself! You can see the coat I purchased for £109 here.
I hope you enjoyed this little blog post and I PROMISE I will blog more often because I've missed it!
Love always
