Gonna continue with some things I couldnt do because of how busy i've been such as continue learning a bit of html. Got to get my work experience for february sorted asap. Also trying to find a part time job, but it ain't easy.
What about you
Sleep more than anything, might go out for a night or two but other than that I have two debates and a public speaking competition in January so I'll be devoting a lot of time to those

I was captain for the first debate, the stress of that was enough! I need to think of some possible refutes to use, it's so hard though:(0 -

to do debating this year...I went to a few meetings and everything, but to take part in our TY musical we had to sign an actual, typed-up contract from the director stating that if we wanted to do the musical, we were not permitted to take part in any other school activities.
So I'm afraid that debating got back seat, and the teacher running the debating team wasn't too impressed, so can't see myself strolling back into debating in the new year.
But I suppose it is impossible to be all things to all people
Aw that's awful! it's kind of like that with choir in our school- if you miss one practice you're in the bad books for the rest of the year. How did the musical go? 0 -

Wow that kind of thing would never happen in my school. Our principal is so strict about people taking part in school clubs and extra curricular that one time when school finished and I was leaving the school building to go home, the principal stopped me and a couple of friends and gave out to us for going home and not taking part in anything after school that day. 0 -

Came home from school each day wrecked from rehearsals, but it was definitely worthwhile and enjoyable. Got great attendance (near to a full house on two of the three nights it ran).
Did wonders for the confidence and learnt how to sing (averagely), really brought the year close together.
Only downside is that everybody is on a serious low afterwards. But it really has inspired me to join a musical society once I get out of secondary school.
Aw wow that sounds deadly! (The musical, not the low bit obvs ). They used to do a musical every year in our school but they stopped doing that years ago. They did a musical when I was in first year and while it turned out really good, apparently there was loads of fighting and drama so- needless to say- they haven't done a musical since 0 -

I did a week of work experience in a solicitors (which was the best week of TY for me so far ) and a week in a pharmacy (not so good because I was just stocking shelves and dusting ). What are you doing/have you done for work experience? 0 -
