MayBall and Exam Results

Hello :),
So I know Mayball was back at the beginning of July but nevertheless I thought you'd all like to see the photos from that.
Also as I mentioned in many previous posts; This one and this one  you should know I have just done my GCSE's (explained in one of the linked posts) and just recently I found out my results. I have to say I am very disappointed with some of them and was hoping for a lot better, however it is not the end of the world and I have got into the 6th form college of my choice and will be studying Maths, Psychology, Geography and English Language. 

I bet you all just want me to get on and tell you, so here you go: 
Maths- A (pleased)
PE- A (pleased)
Geography- B (disappointed, but was good enough)
English Lang- B ("")
Biology, physics & Chemistry- B (pleased)
English Lit- C (Very disappointed)
French- C (relieved I even got that)

So I will spend the next two years studying A levels ready for if/ when I go to university!

Turkey 2013 | Family Holiday










Hello Everyone!
Just last week my family and I scooted off to Marmaris in Turkey for a week. All four of my close family are very busy pretty much the whole time so we had to keep the holiday down to a week for work reasons (Plus we are going to Australia for two weeks over Christmas *eeeek*).
It was one of the most relaxing holidays I think I have ever been on, we literally didn't do anything all day everyday then just went shopping and sat in bars in the evenings. 

We stayed in a hotel called 'The Grand Azur' (See Here), It was 5* and was sooo amazingly lovely and all the staff were really helpful and kind, I really do recommend going there (it was definitely the best hotel in the resort of Marmaris). We went half board so just had to pay for lunch and drinks which was really convenient as it meant we didn't have to leave the resort or even the hotel as it had a pool and beach bar. 

The actual town of Marmaris was really quite disappointing, for all who are English the main road was basically a Turkish version of Blackpool (No offence intended to Blackpool). Everywhere you walked you were bombarded into restaurants and bars, and quite frankly by the end of the week became quite tiring. 

I really recommend the hotel, but if you a planning on doing more than just relaxing then I wouldn't choose Marmaris, as there wasn't that much to do and it wasn't the best for shopping or bars/ restaurants etc.
